The feature flag has been introduced an was turned off by default,
now the it will default to be turned on. That change would still allow
users to turn this feature off by leveraging the Rails console by
running:
`Feature.disable("gitaly_catfile-cache")`
Another option is to manage the number of items the LRU cache will
contain, by updating the `config.toml` for Gitaly. This would be the
`catfile_cache_size`:
0dcb5c579e/config.toml.example (L27)
Closes: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/issues/1712
This brings back some of the changes in
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/20339.
For users using Gitaly on top of NFS, accessing the Git data directly
via Rugged is more performant than Gitaly. This merge request introduces
the feature flag `rugged_find_commit` to activate Rugged paths.
There are also Rake tasks `gitlab:features:enable_rugged` and
`gitlab:features:disable_rugged` to enable/disable these feature
flags altogether.
Part of four Rugged changes identified in
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/57317.
