I'm trying to understand how the grouping of alarms works. 

The alertmanager is configured as follows:

```
---
route:
group_by:
- alertname
group_interval: 10s
group_wait: 10s
receiver: opsgenie
repeat_interval: 1m
routes:
- receiver: opsgenie
receivers:
- name: opsgenie
opsgenie_configs:
- api_key: '***'
api_url: '***'
description: 'Alert: {{ range .Alerts}} {{ .Labels.instance }}, {{ end }}'
message: 'Alert'
send_resolved: true
```

What is the difference between group_wait and repeat_interval.

Let's assume:

alert 1:
  alertname: alert1
  label_1: abc

alert 2:
  alertname: alert1
  label: def

If alert 1 and alert 2 occur simultaneously or in a very short time, then 
only one alert should be sent out. If alert 2 only occurs after some time, 
then another alert should be sent. The latter does not work. If alert 2 
occurs, nothing happens.
