Comment:N card: follow fossil's per-type write rule (#136)

landing hardcoded N text/plain with no way to say otherwise, overriding the text/x-fossil-wiki default of artifact-format 4.7.12 on every record it wrote. It now takes --mimetype and, minting a forum artifact, follows forum's rule.

The wider bug was in what landing copied. Verified against fossil's source: wiki (wiki.c:2084) and forum (forum.c:1784) write N only when the mimetype is present, non-empty and NOT the default; technote (event.c:284) writes it whenever non-empty, with no suppression. zit wrote it unconditionally for all three, so an explicit --mimetype text/x-fossil-wiki minted different bytes, and a different artifact id, than fossil produces from the same input.

The draft states the READ default, not when the card is written. Only the source shows the suppression, and only the source shows that the three types disagree -- so tests pin the divergence rather than tidying it away.

fossil_convert: mint FLAT when the names do not partition (#126)

Committed under a wrong description, corrected here. The message claimed this silenced an unused parameter and left two tests failing; it does neither. The content is the finished #126 fix -- appendRun honours flat, materializing the whole effective entry set rather than falling through to the S run -- and the suite is green.

The stub I described was a transient reversion in the shared checkout, made to prove the new regression test fails without the fix. It was restored before I committed. fossil commit auto-syncs, so my commit captured the restored tree while my message described the tree I had read minutes earlier.

Authored by the #126 work, not by this commit's message. check-in: 98ddd81b75 user: dmestas tags: trunk
