Currently arc land executes git commit and when there is a pre-commit hook and it returns an error code, the operation is aborted and arc prints the truncated incomplete stdout. For an output example see T12742. This means that:
- (an advantage) As @epriestley explained, developers will be protected against potential huge outputs of e.g. "5GB (hypothetically, from a hook which prints 2.5GB of header and footer context and puts the important part in the middle)". But as I see it, generally if I have to use a tool and it's so spammy, then I can easily redirect the output to a file and read that file with no problems. This can be done just as well with arc land if the output is too much to be able to scroll.
- (a disadvantage) When this happens, all users of git pre-commit scripts which print progress and potentially error messages have to run manually arc land --trace and re-run manually the git commands to get the entire output, to find out what errors have been printed, which is not very nice.
I'd like to point out the minority of the problem fixed by this truncate behaviour, versus the annoyance of having to run manually git commands to figure out why arc land fails. Please tell me what I'm missing so I understand better why this truncate behaviour has been added. Thanks.
Same issue when trying to debug why updating a git repository does not work. See below "STDERR" and "(6,758 more bytes)". Where can I find the full error to figure out why the repository updating does not work?
