| Comment: | users: carry fossil's user table, and read it
A .user frame kind holds login/pw/cap/info/mtime rows, repo-local like shun and folded newest-mtime-wins; pack carries the folded table and the scan index (v2) carries it too. 'zit config import|merge FILE' applies a fossil configuration export -- whose cards are byte-identical to the sync protocol's -- so a repository's users cross with no SQLite reader and no server. 'zit users' prints them; the password hash needs --raw. Caps are opaque and verbatim (#124). |

config pull user: adopt a fossil peer's user table
The client can request /user and latch its rows, and 'zit config pull user --user=NAME --password=' applies them -- merging by default, --overwrite to replace, fossil's own two modes. Credentials are required in practice because fossil serves the area to an administrator alone; without them the peer sends nothing and the verb says why instead of reporting empty success. zit's own serve does not emit /user: it has no capability model to gate it with. Smoke S12 drives a real fossil server for both halves (#125). check-in: 2170688c47 user: dmestas tags: trunk | |

pack: trust profitable at-rest deltas; no-op an unchanged log
Re-beating every existing delta paid best-of-N delta.create plus a zlib trial per artifact and never converged -- each run re-encoded ~100k frames again for ~16 bytes each (#122). A delta whose declared raw length clears pickBase's own 75% bar is copied verbatim; one that fails it (a peer's poor base) still re-encodes. A .zit-cache/packed generation key makes a repeat pack over an unchanged log a no-op. tk: 121.6s -> 76.7s first pack, 0.2s repeat. check-in: 27c4f30036 user: dmestas tags: trunk | |
