What are you seeing?

Hello community,

We have mono-repo that is more that few gigabytes in size. We were using gitversion 5.x and it was calculating
the version in 15 minutes, after updating to gitversion 6.x, I got huge memory (RAM) usage: 40GB+ (yes 40, no mistake) and more than 2 hours...

Any suggestions?

What is expected?

I expect it will calculate version with reasonable RAM usage and time.

Steps to Reproduce

Internal repo..

Output log or link to your CI build (if appropriate).

I would suggest to wait until version v6.2 has been released. After that please analyze your execution and create a memory dump. You need to narrow down the locaction where the memory is allocated or the CPU time is used. I'm going to move this to the discussion forum.

Cheers
