Pushing Large Number of Tags: Pre-Receive hook Declined

Cause:

The number of tags surpasses the buffer size available for processing hooks.

Symptoms:

When trying to push a large number of tags, Stash rejects the push with a pre-receive hook declined error.

  1. $ git push --tags stash

  2. Counting objects: 14216, done.

  3. Delta compression using up to 12 threads.

  4. Compressing objects: 100% (5834/5834), done.

  5. Writing objects: 100% (13883/13883), 652.76 MiB | 5.09 MiB/s, done.

  6. Total 13883 (delta 9575), reused 11455 (delta 7654)

  7. ! [remote rejected] mstr-5104 -> mstr-5104 (pre-receive hook declined)

  8. ! [remote rejected] mstr-5112 -> mstr-5112 (pre-receive hook declined)

  9. ! [remote rejected] mstr-5113 -> mstr-5113 (pre-receive hook declined)

  10. ... remote rejected continues ...

  11. ! [remote rejected] mstr-5113 -> mstr-5113 (pre-receive hook declined)

How do I resolve this?

  1. Double the Stash buffer size by stash-config.properties and hook.callback.buffer.capacity=10485760

  2. Restart Stash after completing this
