Timeline

The repo nav's width was a function of its numbers — tk's 25557 and 5809 made a visibly different nav from a small repo's, wrapping to three lines on a phone. Counts go compact (25K, 5.8K, 1.2M, four characters max) with the exact figure in the badge title, and each entry is a pill rather than a word beside a loose number. Nav width is now identical across repositories.

Separately: sqlite has wiki pages named after check-in hashes, 40-char unbreakable tokens that pushed the page 300px past a phone viewport. main now breaks over-long words; pre keeps its own scroll. check-in: 15c39013de user: dmestas tags: trunk

Three fixes for one screenshot. The icons were CSS masks with inline data: URIs — valid in Chrome, invalid under iOS Safari's stricter parsing, so every icon rendered as a grey block. Now an SVG sprite of six Octicons (MIT, ledgered); no encoding to get wrong.

Alignment needed real table columns. CSS grid aligns within one grid, so a per-row grid gave every row its own widths and nothing lined up. Measured: stat cells now share right edges across rows exactly.

And the description spans the full row instead of sitting in column one, which had made that column as wide as the longest sentence and pushed the numbers off a phone. No horizontal scroll at 320-1280px; the mirror column drops below 30rem. check-in: 60e5e5ebb6 user: dmestas tags: trunk

A sentence of stats is a different width in every row, so nothing lines up and the column is hard to scan. Four fixed slots — check-ins, contributors, mirror freshness, last activity — each an icon and a number, in a grid so the numbers align down the page.

Durations go compact (34m, 12h, 3d) for the same reason; the exact instant stays in the title and datetime. Every badge keeps a title, because an icon alone states nothing. check-in: 7bf20af78a user: dmestas tags: trunk

An aggregator listing showed whatever the last commit happened to say — written for people already in that repo's context, the widest thing in the row, and on a phone one entry filled the screen. GitHub and Forgejo list description and activity and neither shows a commit message.

Replaced with what a stranger can use: last activity, check-ins, contributors, and mirror freshness. The last is there because mirroring created an ambiguity — a repo quiet upstream and a mirror failing for a week look identical if all you see is 'last activity'.

Contributors rides the memoized Counts, so it costs nothing per request. check-in: 012cdff6c9 user: dmestas tags: trunk

Removing a repository's disk space meant going to the shell and doing it without quarry knowing, which is worse than quarry doing it. Deletion now purges the store, the derived index, and every forge row keyed to the repository — grants, sync users, mirror, webhooks, CI records — in one transaction, so a new repository of the same name cannot inherit somebody's credentials.

Two brakes. confirm must equal the name: a yes/no prompt is answered reflexively, typing the name requires having read which repository is about to go. And the store is removed ONLY when it lives under this node's repositories root — quarry serves stores it did not create, and this forge runs on a corpus of exactly those, so deleting one named by --repo would destroy a checkout somebody else manages. Verified: the attempt on pikchr refuses and says to unregister instead. check-in: a8d2831bf4 user: dmestas tags: trunk

A repository with no check-ins has an unborn trunk, so the timeline, the file tree and every clone instruction have nothing to point at. Optional README, license (MIT or BSD-2) and .zitignore give it a born trunk, which is why GitHub offers the same three at creation.

The copyright line is left as <copyright holder> rather than filled with the account name: a copyright naming the wrong person is worse than one that is visibly unfinished, and an account is a login, not a legal entity. Seeding is refused on a clone, which arrives with its own history, and paths are checked against the repository root before anything is written. check-in: c5b6d979e2 user: dmestas tags: trunk
