## Updates from SourceHut
### 2020-06-28 12:07 UTC: resolved
An unexpected Redis failure caused a partial outage of git.sr.ht 
 The git.sr.ht web service was partially interrupted today due to unexpected
Redis errors. Some pages which rely on Redis for caching returned 500 errors,
namely the summary and tree pages.
 The issue has been resolved. To prevent its recurrence, we have filed a
ticket to make our caching system more
tolerant of Redis outages, and
 added an alarm to
 detect 
this kind of issue earlier.
