| Comment: | perf(wasm): add a libfossil_nohttp build tag that leaves out net/http
Under TinyGo, importing net/http at all links its TLS and X.509 code (crypto/x509, encoding/asn1, math/big's integers, AES-GCM, SHA-3, netip) whether or not a request is ever made: a five-line program that calls only http.StatusText grows by about 430 KB raw. The library imports it for its HTTP client transport and its HTTP server, which a program that serves sync through HandleSyncWithOpts and supplies its own transport never calls. Built with -tags libfossil_nohttp, the library leaves out NewHTTPTransport, WithHTTPClient, Repo.Pull, Repo.XferHandler and Repo.ServeHTTP, and the internal/sync client, server, redirect handling and peer-address trace they use. HandleSync, HandleSyncWithOpts, Sync over a host Transport and everything else are unchanged. Without the tag nothing changes. The retry classifier keeps the two statuses it read from net/http as constants, and DNS fault classification moves to its own file so it stays in the tagged build. For the html-artifact-publisher engine (TinyGo 0.43.0, Go 1.26.0) the tag takes the gzipped binary from 1,100,251 to 1,003,279 bytes. A test builds the library, db and simio with the tag for the host and js/wasm and checks none links net/http, net/http/httptrace or crypto/tls, and that the untagged library still does. |

docs: libfossil_nohttp is for library embedders, who supply their own transport
The cli package and examples/tinygo, which calls NewHTTPTransport, do not build with the tag; a tagged embedder supplies its own Transport and serves through HandleSyncWithOpts. check-in: 4069607141 user: [email protected] tags: main, trunk | |

perf(fsltype): format a 53-bit text Julian day in float64, no math/big
Fossil's %.17g of a text Julian day is computed in the platform's long double, which this package emulates with big.Float at that precision. A 53-bit long double is a double, and big.Float at 53 bits with round-to-nearest-even is exactly IEEE double arithmetic over this range, so that case (wasm, macOS arm64, Windows) is now computed in float64, each product converted explicitly so none fuses into a multiply-add. The big.Float path remains for the 64- and 113-bit long doubles and is left out of wasm builds, whose long double is 53 bits; a wasm TinyGo binary loses math/big's floating point, about 5 KB gzipped. A test checks the float64 path against the big.Float one at 53 bits over 50,000 random times and every ~1 s of three days, and the existing fossil-binary sweep passes unchanged. Stored times do not change. check-in: f7eb80beae user: [email protected] tags: main, trunk | |
