Error: recursive use of an object detected which would lead to unsafe aliasing in rust about automerge-repo HOT 4 OPEN

Alternative steps to reproduce:

https://github.com/georgewsu/automerge-client-test/tree/file_error

git checkout file_error
gunzip generated.json.gz
mkdir -p dist
cp generated.json dist/data.json
npm install
npm run client

This branch creates a doc from json file contents. The generated json file was created using https://json-generator.com/ with repeat 10000, 10000.

I haven’t had a chance to verify this myself, but it looks as though you are passing an automerge document in to Repo.create().

create should be used without parameters to create an empty doc handle, or with an object to initialise the document handle structure.

Essentially, you might have better luck if you skip the from call and pass testJson directly in to create.

Hi, unfortunately that still doesn't prevent the error from happening. It does save a step and reduce the time it takes at least. Thanks

To clarify, it takes multiple documents to trigger the error on the server:

cd automerge-client-test
git checkout file_error
du -sh dist/data.json ; echo "should be several MB"
for i in {1..10}; do npm run client; done
