And that is a sqlite database. +And if sqlite has problems with its internal locking that don't work on +your filesystem, it would be hard to fix that in git-annex. Not using +sqlite or switching the database from WAL mode to non-WAL mode are about +all git-annex could do and both would be major undertakings. + +A recently added feature to git-annex is the annex.dbdir git config. +That can be set to a directory on another filesystem, and git-annex will +store all its sqlite databases in that directory. I think this option is +your best chance of avoiding the problem. +"""]] -- 2.30.2
