Re: [git failure] failure pulling latest Linus tree

For some reason which we haven't been able to track down yet, the
recent load imposed by FC6 caused zeus1's load to skyrocket, but not
zeus2's... it's largely a mystery.

Would kernel.org prefer RPM cut on a FC6 box now?

HOWEVER, git 1.4.3 seems to have been bad chicken.  When we ran it we
got a neverending stream of segfaults in the logs.

If that is git-daemon dying when talking to older clients, that
has been fixed in 1.4.3.2 (it's virtual hosting support had an
off-by-one wrong check to tell older clients from newer one).

Sorry about that -- we heard about the incompatibility this
Monday.

No; since we have now (finally) archieved "OS parity" we're going to keep hera, zeus1, and zeus2 in sync going forward.

This stuff happens... it's dealt with now.
