[Coke] Hi. 14:19
lizmat hi :-) 14:20
[Coke] gist.github.com/coke/913c4279578f9...c8f55e4c68 shows an issue where if you specify too many files on the command line, you get an error.
lizmat what happens if you use --under-version-control instead? 14:23
[Coke] yup, then it's fine - it's not git, it's just the number of command line args. 14:24
lizmat then it's a shell issue
hmmm
[Coke] rak RAKUDO_POD_DECL_BLOCK_USER_FORMAT doc/**/** in zsh reports the two finds I'd expect and then hangs. 14:25
lizmat yeah... I've seen that occasionally, without a proper way of debugging as of yet :-( 14:26
[Coke] so it can be avoided with ulimit - should rak be more careful and close out open files more aggressively when done, (or queue work until it can be completed) 14:35
lizmat well, I don't know of any platform independent way of finding out the max number of open files ? 15:05
[Coke] I think you'd have to catch the error and try agin 15:23
Or catch the error and give a nice error message
lizmat could you please make an issue for it, so it doesn't fall through the cracks ? 15:24
[Coke] Done 16:05
lizmat thanks! 16:12
