Hi Greg,

 

Thanks for this. I have been observing the behaviour more closely and actually it looks like there could be a related issue: sometimes after resetting the metadata if reported as “successfully finished” it still takes some time (~3 minutes?) before all changes are also really visible in the UI (e.g. when clicking on one of the repositories again in the list “repositories I own”).

 

Regards,

 

Pieter.

Hi Greg,

 

I found an issue in Toolshed, not sure if it has been reported before.

 

Steps:

 

1-    Make a repository and add a tool .xml and a README file

2-    Reset metadata and check if all information appears in the toolshed UI

3-    Now delete the README file from the hg repository

4-    Commit

5-    (not sure whether I did this step) reset metadata

6-    Now add the README file back but with different contents. Commit, reset metadata

7-    In the toolshed UI you will see that the OLD REAME contents are displayed.

 

This is just one example...I have the feeling it is not restricted to the README files of course...so it can be quite a serious issue.

 

Regards,
