| Comment: | zit purge: recoverable removal of leaf check-ins (#87)
Removes a check-in and the blobs only it introduced, into a local graveyard that purge undo restores and purge obliterate empties. The drop set is (seed + reachable(seed)) minus reachable(everything retained), so a blob a surviving check-in still names is never freed -- dropping it would create a phantom rather than reclaim anything. Only leaves go, judged over the whole named set: purging a parent alongside its child is accepted, purging it alone is refused. Reuses shun's rewriteAndSwap and records no tombstone: a purge is local, so content that already synced comes back from a peer. The help says so and points at shun. |

ci: the archive differential asserts on output it never captured
archive-fossil-diff.sh writes the per-format comparison to stderr, but the step piped only stdout into diff.log, so the 'kinds compared' line the coverage guard greps for was never in the file -- it counted 0 on every platform and the step could not pass. pipefail with it: the pipeline was taking tee's status, so the differential's own failure, including its exit 2 for a missing tool, was swallowed and only the guard could ever fail this step. check-in: 98243aad6a user: dmestas tags: trunk | |

ls: size from the frame header, full names through the index (#96)
A blob's plaintext length is already in every frame kind -- a zlib container states it outright, a delta carries it in its own header -- so --size reports one without resolving a chain. The binary verdict cannot be had that way (a NUL may be the last byte), so --long still reads every blob and keeps its exact columns. The larger cost was neither: resolveHexPrefix scanned the whole store per file to resolve a full-width name the digest index answers outright, which slowed plain ls too. On tcl's tip --long drops 167s to 93s and --size costs what plain ls costs. check-in: 3b7e8c7569 user: dmestas tags: trunk | |
