While working with larger repositories (.git/ folder is 778 MiB in my case), I find my public node frequently emits warnings like

WARN  worker   Read channel timed out for upload-pack rad:<rid>

I’d like to suggest to make the default fetch timeout longer to be 300s (5 minutes), which is more balanced than the previous 1 hour or 3 seconds timeout.

In the future it might also be desirable to allow configurable fetch timeouts, but this patch does not address this.

Thanks for the patch, and sorry for the VERY delayed reply.

We went back and forth on this timeout value for a while originally. After getting a chance to actually investigate the issue there are now a series of patches that will fix this:

• f48c03698bcb2c015829f0c8e04240b95f3a7fca
• b6b90eaaf22180bb5235de1d212ccf54eed35681
• 49513bf467a0d3e8a41283edb7faf40ad52b4354
• e88429499d64b02b833e80d6e702854dcbfb46c5

Once these are merged, this timeout issue will go away – we’ve tested it on repositories up to 8GB in size.

So, all this said, I’m going to archive your patch in favour of the above :)
