Hello,

Thanks for the heads up Thomas. For the Community Lab, as far as I can tell, every git clone/fetch for DPDK main and DPDK LTS should be able to be moved to the GitHub repo.

On the other hand, I don't think next-* branches are mirrored on GitHub (at least for now), so unless I'm mistaken, we will still have to pull from git.dpdk.org. But, between DPDK main and LTS, it should still be a sizable reduction on the load put on your server. I'll discuss with the team today and we will update here. 

Best,
Patrick

Hello,

The server git.dpdk.org is not strong enough to hold all CI requests.
When a script is doing a git fetch or clone, it is consuming workload on the server.
Please could you favor the mirror on GitHub in any CI automation?

This mirror is updated as frequently as git.dpdk.org:
We push to git.dpdk.org where a git hook is replicating the same on GitHub.

Hope we can reduce the workload on our main server.
Thank you everyone for collaborating.
