Commit Message

Calvin Wan Nov. 8, 2024, 5:31 p.m. UTC
Certain maintenance tasks and subtasks within gc are unsafe to run in
parallel with other commands because they lock up files such as
HEAD. Therefore, tasks are marked whether they are async safe or
not. Async unsafe tasks are run first in the same process before running
async safe tasks in parallel.

Since the gc task is partially safe, there are two new tasks -- an async
safe gc task and an async unsafe gc task. In order to properly invoke
this in gc, `--run-async-safe` and `--run-async-unsafe` have been added
as options to gc. Maintenance will only run these two new tasks if it
was set to detach, otherwise the original gc task runs.

Additionally, if a user passes in tasks thru `--task`, we do not attempt
to run separate async/sync tasks since the user sets the order of tasks.

WIP: automatically run gc unsafe tasks when gc is invoked but not from
     maintenance
WIP: edit test in t7900-maintainance.sh to match new functionality
WIP: add additional documentation for new options and functionality
