if `pkglib.NewFromConfig` is used in parallel, it calls ``` git -C /some/directory update-index -q --refresh ``` in parallel. But `git` does not like this and exits with 128. This can be easily tried with: ``` git -C /some/dir update-index -q --refresh & \ git -C /some/dir update-index -q --refresh ``` Signed-off-by: Christoph Ostarek <christoph@zededa.com>
