Oh, one other thing you might consider, it something like "timeout" from GNU coreutils, which puts a hard cap on the length of time a process can run. It's totally unaware of the state of the process, though, so if you really do have a clone which takes an hour, it might very well kill it at 99% complete. It has no mechanism for "gee, this process looks like it hasn't done anything for 5 minutes". I don't know offhand of a general tool for that. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
