Hi Guys, running pants tailor on a repo with a socket file causes the following crash:

bash-5.1$ ls
pants		pants.toml
bash-5.1$ python -c "import socket as s; sock = s.socket(s.AF_UNIX); sock.bind('test.sock')"
bash-5.1$ ./pants tailor

Hmm, sorry for the inconvenience. Is this blocking you at the moment? Note that you can run tailor on specific subdirs with

./pants tailor path/to/dir

if that helps unblock.

Hi, you can also add to

pants_ignore

[GLOBAL]
pants_ignore.add = ["test.sock"]

I just deleted the socket file, but I thought it’s something we should fix 🙂

If it's not too much of a hassle, would you mind opening a ticket for this? https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/new/choose Thanks!

Done https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/13284

Interesting, I reproduce that too! Thanks for the report. Is this blocking you?

no, i managed with .gitignore
