Description
Observation¶
We got these warnings on o3:
[2024-08-05T08:35:30.423569Z] [warn] [pid:24853] warning: refname '1b53ef6634d0d8e838c9726d42877bfd4dd13541' is ambiguous.
Git normally never creates a ref that ends with 40 hex characters
because it will be ignored when you just specify 40-hex. These refs
may be created by mistake. For example,
git switch -c $br $(git rev-parse ...)
where "$br" is somehow empty and a 40-hex ref is created. Please
examine these refs and maybe delete them. Turn this message off by
running "git config advice.objectNameWarning false"
fatal: Invalid revision range 1b53ef6634d0d8e838c9726d42877bfd4dd13541..6f8ff6e139e08ebeca34a51aa51143921653b586

Here is a corresponding section of /var/log/openqa with the actual command:

reproduces the warning.
I quickly looked up which job has that git ref:
https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4380936
But there are many more with CASEDIR: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse.git#1b53ef6634d0d8e838c9726d42877bfd4dd13541
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: No more git warnings
Suggestions¶
- Check if there's a real problem, if not just turn it off as git suggests
- on o3: /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse do
git branch -a
and you will see a lot of git shas - This happens when the
git_auto_clone
feature is on and a job runs with `CASEDIR=https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse.git#abcdef - Lookup if we can use/generate refs according to what git considers valid
- Check how the cloning was implemented by @dheidler and if there is a bug

first suggestion solves nothing at all. The only thing it does is to disable the ADVICE_OBJECT_NAME_WARNING which stops printing the long explanation but the warning will still be shown.
To me the proper solution looks like to delete the offending commit. in the case of this report is
commit 1b53ef6634d0d8e838c9726d42877bfd4dd13541 (1b53ef6634d0d8e838c9726d42877bfd4dd13541)
