Description

Im starting GC in the admin dashboard ("Garbage-Collection auf Repositories ausführen"). I'm hosting 929 repositories. After start this operation I see on the monitoring page, that GC is running. But after some time the admin dashboard shows

Repository garbage collection failed: Error: context deadline exceeded

...

Screenshots

We should give a different context from the default so that it has a longer timeout.

Or run it in background withot any timeout.

git gc and git fsck can take a very long time to run, often several minutes, and they should be done in the background rather than between page loads.

I've done a basic implementation on my fork (aswild@7db9db3) though it could be enhanced by firing a System Notice when complete.

How is the status here? My hope was to get this in 1.12.0.

This was reported as fixed by #10745

I've tested it with 1.12.0

@somera did you adjust the settings in https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/#cron---repository-health-check-cronrepo_health_check

I tested this in 1.12.x. And it works if I set the timeout higher. Thx!
