Troubleshooting

Diagnosing Issues

The scalar diagnose command collects logs and config details for the current repository. The resulting zip file helps root-cause issues.

When run inside your repository, creates a zip file containing several important files for that repository. This includes:

  • Configuration files from your .git folder, such as the config file, index, hooks, and refs.

  • A summary of your Git object database, including the number of loose objects and the names and sizes of pack-files.

As the diagnose command completes, it provides the path of the resulting zip file. This zip can be attached to bug reports to make the analysis easier.

Modifying Configuration Values

The Scalar-specific configuration is only available for repos using the GVFS protocol.

Cache Server URL

When using an enlistment cloned with scalar clone and the GVFS protocol, you will have a value called the cache server URL. Cache servers are a feature of the GVFS protocol to provide low-latency access to the on-demand object requests. This modifies the gvfs.cache-server setting in your local Git config file.

Run scalar cache-server --get to see the current cache server.

Run scalar cache-server --list to see the available cache server URLs.

Run scalar cache-server --set=<url> to set your cache server to <url>.
