Currently every day the rhel8-split.sh and cent8-split.sh creates a new hardlinked tree of files in /mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/rhel/rhel8/koji/ and /mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/centos/stream8-kojitarget. This adds up over time in hardlink counts on various files and makes looking at those directories ugly.
/mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/rhel/rhel8/koji/
/mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/centos/stream8-kojitarget
What is needed is a once a month cron job that removes all the directories from the month before. This will allow a smaller directory listing and also faster ls/find on certain trees. This cron job would be in ansible tree roles/grobisplitter/files and would be run on batcave01.
roles/grobisplitter/files

Something like find /mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/rhel/rhel8/koji/ /mnt/fedora/app/fi-repo/centos/stream8-kojitarget -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -mtime +30 -print -exec rm -rf '{}' \; should work. It will find all the daily subdirectories that are 31 days or older and delete them. It can be run on a monthly cron job or even at the end of the *-split.sh scripts each day. I suppose I could submit a PR, but it would be nice if someone with actual access could make sure it works as expected.

Thanks for the tip @gotmax23 , tried your suggestion and it seems to work just fine. I added a line in both cron files executing the command. Here is the PR: https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/ansible/pull-request/1109
I merged the pr and pushed it out. Thanks everyone!
