Changes for version 1.08_02 - 2018-09-13

  • Extended the SEE ALSO section with a bunch of modules for the same task.
  • Changed the parameter name from "attempts" to "retries", and added documentation for it.
  • Added verbose message about backing off.

Changes for version 1.08_01 - 2018-09-12

  • If pidfile already exists and process is running, retry a couple of times. Parallel smoke testers were producing spurious fails; this will hopefully fix that, and is potentially a useful feature to have anyway.
