[8.7.0] Deduplicate identical repo contents cache entries during GC #29071
Merged
Conversation
Such entries are created when multiple Bazel servers fetch the same repo at the same time and waste space. This has been tested manually by running many concurrent Bazel commands with different output bases. After the specified idle delay, only a single repo remained for each entry and subsequent runs with all these output bases succeeded and shared that one entry. Closes bazelbuild#26682. PiperOrigin-RevId: 797358986 Change-Id: Ib6dc5f718a8e8e1e76b1e2804ad6ada765baee1e (cherry picked from commit 9bb6c19)
