It appears that the allura.tasks.repo_tasks.clone task flushes the Project record at the end, and since that task can take a very long time, any updates (e.g. to project description) get lost when it saves the old project document back to mongo.

I haven't duplicated this in development, but here's what happened on sourceforge:

I didn't find any other tasks with the specific project_id that completed after 06:07:16, so I believe it's the repo clone task at fault.

    I tried and failed to come up with a way to create a test case for this; since the tests use MIM, there's no way to do an "out-of-band" update to ensure it doesn't get overwritten.

    To QA:

    Add a breakpoint to, e.g., forgegit.model.git_repo.GitImplementation.clone_from then start a clone of a repo (or just clone a large repo w/o a breakpoint). While it's processing, update something on the project metadata, such as the summary.

    May want to try with the breakpoint in a few different points in the code (start of the task, clone_from, repo_refresh, end of task).
