[11:47:01] if you have localisationcache enabled and ran using rebuild, is there any reason to keep files on disk [12:04:42] which files? [12:12:40] Vulpix: languages/i18n/*.json & (extensions|skins)/i18n/*.json [12:12:52] a very quick test didn't take everything down [12:13:51] The reason to not delete them is, those are the original files. Cache means "volatile", it can be wiped anytime [12:15:58] Vulpix: it's not though wiped any time [12:17:25] have you tried running update.php? [12:17:55] No never run update.php in production Vulpix [12:18:12] We agree with WMF SREs on that front [12:18:55] Yeah, and don't use alpha releases on production [12:20:09] You can change the question to "is there any reason to wipe those files?" [12:21:24] Vulpix: well it's more just never have them. We copy a single install to every server with git files and stuff removed. My reasons are less disk space used and a far faster deploy. [12:24:59] I'd be surprised if those i18n files contribute a relevant amount to your deploy time [12:33:06] Vulpix: its probably a good few minutes [12:33:56] It also cuts out composer and stuff because w would never change [13:40:42] RhinosF1: it should be safe(tm) if you have automatic recaching disabled and you think the additional complexity to deploy is justified for the speedup [13:41:08] Nikerabbit: I mean it's just editing --exclude [13:41:26] I assume autorecache is disabled [21:54:55] o/ [21:55:55] is the debian_apache_short_url quest still ongoing or has it fallen asleep?
