fix(checkout): revert undoes a pending rename (#242) (#249)

* fix(checkout): revert undoes a pending rename (#242)

Revert-all selected rows by content and removal, so a rename recorded by fossil mv (origname set, chnged 0) was skipped; a renamed and edited file had its committed content written under the new name, leaving the rename pending. A named revert only matched the current name.

Like fossil's revert, a pending rename is now undone: the file under the new name is removed, the row takes its old name back (UPDATE OR REPLACE, as fossil does), and the committed content is written there. Revert-all includes renamed rows, and a named revert answers to either the new or the old name. A renamed file a merge added is still removed outright, as before and as in fossil.

removeRegularFile is shared by the rename undo and removeMergeAdded, so neither deletes a directory the user made at that path.

* fix(checkout): plan a revert before changing anything (#242)

Undoing a rename with UPDATE OR REPLACE let a swap destroy files: reverting a.txt and b.txt exchanged through fossil mv deleted the other row, the loop then removed a file it had just restored from its stale row list, and the next restore failed half way, leaving both files gone from disk. A new file added under the old name was overwritten the same way. A named revert of the old name also stopped at the first match.

Revert now plans, checks, then acts. planRevert decides every target row's action (restore, un-manage, remove a merge-added file, undo a rename) before anything changes; checkRenameUndoFree refuses the whole revert when undoing a rename would land on a name another tracked row holds, since go-libfossil has no undo copy to recover an overwritten file (fossil saves one); revertFile carries out the planned action. The rename undo is a plain UPDATE, which fails rather than replace a row. A name selects every row it matches, new name or old. The callback reports a rename under the name the file gets back.

Swaps and chains, which fossil completes via its undo store, are #248.

* fix(checkout): revert named paths as one; refuse untracked file at old name (#242)

Review of the planned revert found two remaining ways to lose work:

- Several named paths were reverted one at a time, so in `revert b.txt z.txt` the edit to b.txt was discarded before z.txt's rename undo was refused. revertPaths now gathers every named row (new or old name) and plans and checks them as one revert: a refusal reverts none of them. - Undoing a rename restored the committed content over an untracked file at the old name. checkRenameUndoFree now also refuses when a file on disk there differs from the committed content (wouldClobber), for the same reason it refuses a tracked one: there is no undo copy.

Initial open source release

libfossil is a pure-Go implementation of the Fossil SCM, reading and writing the same .fossil SQLite repository format as upstream Fossil.

This is the first public release of code that previously lived in a private repository. The module path is github.com/danmestas/libfossil and the binary is named libfossil to avoid $PATH collisions with upstream fossil.

Included: - Repo lifecycle (create, clone), checkout/checkin, timeline, merge, diff, annotate, shun, tag, branch, bisect, stash, undo/redo - Sync-over-HTTP protocol (client and handler) - Two SQLite drivers: modernc (pure Go, default) and ncruces (wasm-capable) - Observer interfaces (SyncObserver, CheckoutObserver) with an optional OpenTelemetry implementation in observer/otel (separate submodule) - Deterministic simulation testing harness with BUGGIFY fault injection - Kong-based embeddable CLI under cli/ and a standalone binary under cmd/libfossil/ check-in: f5744359d3 user: [email protected] tags: trunk
