## Automatic housekeeping
GitLab automatically runs `git gc` and `git repack` on repositories
after Git pushes. If needed you can change how often this happens, or
to turn it off, go to **Admin area > Settings**
(`/admin/application_settings`).
## Manual housekeeping
The housekeeping function runs `git gc` ([man page][man]) on the current
project Git repository.

# This class implements an 'exclusive lease'. We call it a 'lease'
# because it has a set expiry time. We call it 'exclusive' because only
# one caller may obtain a lease for a given key at a time. The
# implementation is intended to work across GitLab processes and across
# servers. It is a 'cheap' alternative to using SQL queries and updates:
# servers. It is a cheap alternative to using SQL queries and updates:
# you do not need to change the SQL schema to start using
# ExclusiveLease.
#
# It is important to choose the timeout wisely. If the timeout is very
# high (1 hour) then the throughput of your operation gets very low (at
# most once an hour). If the timeout is lower than how long your
# operation may take then you cannot count on exclusivity. For example,
# if the timeout is 10 seconds and you do an operation which may take 20
# seconds then two overlapping operations may hold a lease for the same
# key at the same time.
#
# This class has no 'cancel' method. I originally decided against adding
# it because it would add complexity and a false sense of security. The
# complexity: instead of setting '1' we would have to set a UUID, and to
# delete it we would have to execute Lua on the Redis server to only
# delete the key if the value was our own UUID. Otherwise there is a
# chance that when you intend to cancel your lease you actually delete
# someone else's. The false sense of security: you cannot design your
# system to rely too much on the lease being cancelled after use because
# the calling (Ruby) process may crash or be killed. You _cannot_ count
# on begin/ensure blocks to cancel a lease, because the 'ensure' does
# not always run. Think of 'kill -9' from the Unicorn master for
# instance.
#
# If you find that leases are getting in your way, ask yourself: would
# it be enough to lower the lease timeout? Another thing that might be
# appropriate is to only use a lease for bulk/automated operations, and
# to ignore the lease when you get a single 'manual' user request (a
# button click).
