This procedure of collecting and summarizing changes reduces the number of commits that have to be managed by the CONFIGSERVICE in case of a high frequency of change requests.
Additionally, it is possible to synchronize the local resources of the CONFIGSERVICE and the remote resources on the git server via the endpoint POST <host>:<port_of_configservice>/manage/refresh at any time. This synchronization is additional and independent of the automated synchronization every 5 minutes.
Note: In case multiple instances of the CONFIGSERVICE are running, the synchronization of the individual local resources is done at regular intervals of 5 minutes as well. Thus, requests for resources that have been modified less than 5 minutes ago might lead to the retrieval of a deprecated version of those resources. Resources created less than 5 minutes ago might be not available.
