From 6ba913629f51f5fa9f78030fe47e38d5b02e3a88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2023 20:47:28 +0000 Subject: ci(linux-asan-ubsan): let's save some time Every once in a while, the `git-p4` tests flake for reasons outside of our control. It typically fails with "Connection refused" e.g. here: https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/5969707156/job/16196057724 [...] + git p4 clone --dest=/home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git //depot Initialized empty Git repository in /home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git/.git/ Perforce client error: Connect to server failed; check $P4PORT. TCP connect to localhost:9807 failed. connect: 127.0.0.1:9807: Connection refused failure accessing depot: could not run p4 Importing from //depot into /home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git [...] This happens in other jobs, too, but in the `linux-asan-ubsan` job it hurts the most because that job often takes over a full hour to run, therefore re-running a failed `linux-asan-ubsan` job is _very_ costly. The purpose of the `linux-asan-ubsan` job is to exercise the C code of Git, anyway, and any part of Git's source code that the `git-p4` tests run and that would benefit from the attention of ASAN/UBSAN are run better in other tests anyway, as debugging C code run via Python scripts can get a bit hairy. In fact, it is not even just `git-p4` that is the problem (even if it flakes often enough to be problematic in the CI builds), but really the part about Python scripts. So let's just skip any Python parts of the tests from being run in that job. For good measure, also skip the Subversion tests because debugging C code run via Perl scripts is as much fun as debugging C code run via Python scripts. And it will reduce the time this very expensive job takes, which is a big benefit.
