Process inserting duplicates in a repository

1. Get access a registry in your repo

    //begin of repo
    
    /** @var RegistryInterface */
    protected $registry;
    
    public function __construct(RegistryInterface $registry)
    {
        $this->registry = $registry;
        parent::__construct($registry, YourEntity::class);
    }

2. Wrap risky code into transaction and reset manager in case of exception

    //in repo method
    $em = $this->getEntityManager();
    
    $em->beginTransaction();
    try {
        $em->persist($yourEntityThatCanBeDuplicate);
        $em->flush();
        $em->commit();
    
    } catch (\Throwable $e) {
        //Rollback all nested transactions
        while ($em->getConnection()->getTransactionNestingLevel() > 0) {
            $em->rollback();
        }
        
        //Reset the default em
        if (!$em->isOpen()) {
            $this->registry->resetManager();
        }
    }
