fix(content): serve a kept tree only where a fresh read would give it

Review of the tree memo found it could classify differently warm than cold. A kept tree was served whenever the store held its name at its rid, even when the store could no longer expand it (a delta whose source became a phantom or lost its row), where a fresh read skips the tree. Each view now lists, once, the rids its store cannot expand: a recursive walk of the delta table seeded with the phantoms and the delta sources the store holds no row for. Those sources only appear when a row is deleted, which forces a full read, so they are found once per lineage (about 20ms on fossil-scm.org) and the per-view walk costs about 0.3ms. The phantom check folds into it.

Publish dropped the trees a view read whenever the memo had gone past that view's store, though trees do not depend on the store; they are now kept either way. A view over a store read in full after the memo's is no longer taken for a stale one, so a store whose highest rid was deleted stops being read in full on every view.

The names bound that replaced the byte cap counted pieces, not names, so one publish could pass it; it now counts the names each piece adds, on the fresh-index path too, and is passed as a parameter so it is tested.

The tests compare the names a horizon's walk produces, memo against fresh, which classification alone can hide: a tree's lost nodes also stop its files counting as files. They lose trees as phantoms, as deleted nodes, behind phantom and deleted delta sources, and by a shun and rebuild in stock fossil; removing either check fails them. check-in: c50ff7c9e2 user: [email protected] tags: main, perf/463-memo-trees, trunk

test(content): measure the memo's trees after a full read and over all history

The corpus test timed horizons cold and warm, but not the case HZ-6.2-10 left open: a full read of the store (an arrival a held artifact cited) dropped every tree the memo had read. It now times a horizon again after one, and a second test walks the whole history to report what keeping every tree costs in heap and time. check-in: e690ff7ad2 user: [email protected] tags: main, perf/463-memo-trees, trunk

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
