    .pants.d/watchman/watchman.sock

    is $HOME certain to be shorter?

    sorry I am not sure I understand what file you are running into length issues then.

    no $HOME could be anything depending on how your box is setup

    pretty sure $TMPDIR is safe though.

    well, $TMPDIR on osx is loooong

    $HOME generally seems shorter - /home/xxx /Users/xxx etc
  • r

    05/11/2016, 11:04 PM
    for the general case - tehre are exceptions tho depending on setup

    ugh, thats a big hash OSX uses

    I think generally, this probably isn’t a big deal for most usages - in our jenkins specifically this path inflates to limit+1

    2) seems like the right approach most likely.

    that has me worried about footprint sprawl
  • r

    05/11/2016, 11:05 PM
    but I guess we could default to not doing that and option this on for special cases

    I really dont think most users will ever hit this

    perhaps. but from the unix perspective, putting this kind of stuff outside /var (?) seems odd
  • r

    05/11/2016, 11:06 PM
    afaict, buck does nothing special in this case

    probably just means they haven’t hit that edge case yet.

    outside /var is definitelyt unusual in the service case - in the userland binary case, theres no precedent for world writable paths in /var without added setup

    05/11/2016, 11:06 PM
    (otehr than /var/tmp)

    hm. which path am i thinking of then.
  • r

    rough-minister-58256

    05/11/2016, 11:07 PM
    usually locks/socks are like /var/lib/whatever or /var/lock/whatever
  • r

    rough-minister-58256

    05/11/2016, 11:07 PM
    but generally that gets setup by the installation rpm - as root - etc
  • w

    witty-crayon-22786

    05/11/2016, 11:08 PM
    /var/run
    is what i was thinking of
  • r

    rough-minister-58256

    05/11/2016, 11:08 PM
    with a user-writable path
