When a connection drops and the node attempts to reconnect within the same second, the `last_attempt` timestamp written to the database is identitcal to the `last_success` timestamp due to the Unix time (seconds) precision loss. The `maintain_connections` logic filters eligible peers using the condition `last_success >= last_attempt`. Because the truncated timestamps are equal, this evaluates to true, causing the node to bypass the `CONNECTION_RETRY_DELTA` backoff. If the OS instantly rejects the dial attempt (e.g. `EHOSTUNREACH`), the node synchronously queues another connection attempt. This traps the reactor in an infinite `while` loop. Changing the condition to `last_success > last_attempt` ensures that a failed attempt in the same second correctly evaluates to false, forcing the node to respect the backoff timer and breaking the loop.

Radicle Heartwood Protocol & Stack
Heartwood is the third iteration of the Radicle Protocol, a powerful
peer-to-peer code collaboration and publishing stack. The repository contains a
full implementation of Heartwood, complete with a user-friendly command-line
interface (rad) and network daemon (radicle-node).
Radicle was designed to be a secure, decentralized and powerful alternative to code forges such as GitHub and GitLab that preserves user sovereignty and freedom.
See the Radicle home page for general information, and the Zulip chat to talk to the project.
See the Protocol Guide for an in-depth description of how Radicle works.
Installation
Requirements
- Linux or Unix based operating system.

Or visit our download page.
📦 From source
Requires the Rust toolchain.
You can install the Radicle stack from source, by running the following commands from inside this repository:
cargo install --path crates/radicle-cli --force --locked --root ~/.radicle
cargo install --path crates/radicle-node --force --locked --root ~/.radicle
cargo install --path crates/radicle-remote-helper --force --locked --root ~/.radicle
Or directly from our seed node:
cargo install --force --locked --root ~/.radicle \
--git https://seed.radicle.dev/z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5.git \
crates/radicle-cli crates/radicle-node crates/radicle-remote-helper
Running
Systemd unit files are provided for the node under the /systemd folder.
They can be used as a starting point for further customization.
For running in debug mode, see HACKING.md.
