Description

Making a several request (Close though not concurrent) to repoCreateFile API endpoint result in internal server error. Probably it's a race condition at the API level as demonstrated in the log.
What made do this(making several request to repoCreateFile) from first place is that I want to create multiple files through the API. Is there's a better way to do so?
I am willing to work on both the bug and a API endpoint for creating multiple files(unless it already exits). Though I need the guidance to do so. My thought process till this point is:
- For the race condition, instead of committing the files directly from the API endpoint, it will be split into two parts one of them will populate a queue with the files and the other will consume this queue and commit the files.
- For creating multiple files, it will use the a similar logic to the one used for GUI file upload.
