Hello I am encountering an exception coming from Pants's Rust engine in CI/CD. Would anyone know a workaround?

Exception: Snapshot failed: Failed to digest inputs: Throw { val: Failed to watch filesystem for `/some/path`: Error { kind: MaxFilesWatch, paths: ["/some/path"] }, python_traceback: "Traceback (no traceback):\n  <pants native internals>\nException: Failed to watch filesystem for `/some/path`: Error { kind: MaxFilesWatch, paths: [\"/some/path\"] }", engine_traceback: ["digest_file"] }

see https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/troubleshooting#no-space-left-on-device-error-while-watching-files

Thanks Stu for link. I don't have root access to the CI/CD and I believe it runs in a Docker container with restricted access. Am I out of luck then?

the only other option is to set both

--no-pantsd

and `--no-watch-filesystem`: it will mean that running multiple

pants

commands in a row is slower, but individual commands should be the same speed

Thank you Stu. I will give it a try! 😄
