We're on 4.0.1 and switched to incremental repairs a couple of months ago.
They work fine about 95% of the time, but once in a while a session will
get stuck and will have to be cancelled (with `nodetool repair_admin cancel
-s <uuid>`). Typically the session will be in REPAIRING but nothing will
actually be happening.
Output of nodetool repair_admin:

There's nothing interesting in the logs for this repair; the last relevant
thing was a bunch of "Created 0 sync tasks based on 6 merkle tree responses
for 3a059b10-4ef6-11ec-
925f-8f7bcf0ba035 (took: 0ms)" and then back and forth for the last couple
of hours with things like

Typically, cancelling the session and rerunning with the exact same command
line will succeed.
