@derrickstolee @dscho I've addressed the issues raised in the comments so far. Please could I have another look over? Thanks! :) |

It might make sense to merge migrate_pack() directly into this function, after the .pack suffix check.

Tests in t7900 assume the state of the `maintenance.strategy` config setting; set/unset by previous tests. Correct this by explictly unsetting and re-setting the config at the start of the tests. Signed-off-by: Matthew John Cheetham <[email protected]>
Introduce a new maintenance task, `cache-local-objects`, that operates on Scalar or VFS for Git repositories with a per-volume, shared object cache (specified by `gvfs.sharedCache`) to migrate packfiles and loose objects from the repository object directory to the shared cache. Older versions of `microsoft/git` incorrectly placed packfiles in the repository object directory instead of the shared cache; this task will help clean up existing clones impacted by that issue. Migration of packfiles involves the following steps for each pack: 1. Hardlink (or copy): a. the .pack file b. the .keep file c. the .rev file 2. Move (or copy + delete) the .idx file 3. Delete/unlink: a. the .pack file b. the .keep file c. the .rev file Moving the index file after the others ensures the pack is not read from the new cache directory until all associated files (rev, keep) exist in the cache directory also. Moving loose objects operates as a move, or copy + delete. Signed-off-by: Matthew John Cheetham <[email protected]>
Add the `cache-local-objects` maintenance task to the list of tasks run by the `scalar run` command. It's often easier for users to run the shorter `scalar run` command than the equivalent `git maintenance` command. Signed-off-by: Matthew John Cheetham <[email protected]>

Thanks, @mjcheetham! I tested this with my local Office enlistment and it worked great to move both loose objects and packfiles. I'm excited for this to help our customers!
