Overview
Comment:shun S4: stop advertising what the shun table names

LogIndexStore keeps a shunned holding in its enumeration and MASKS it rather than removing it, so a shun row appended between two rounds of one clone cannot renumber the survivors under the pager's cursor. held() answers false, the name leaves by_name, and SS9.5's 'igot for every eligible holding after the SS3.3 filters' is where that mask lives.

The plan overstated what was missing. S1's log-level mask already nulled content and wire, so a clone silently skipped a shunned artifact before this slice. What was actually broken is narrower and worse: because by_name still resolved the name, emitCloneReply's basis proof fired in a safety build and the SERVE PROCESS PANICKED -- a fossil clone got 'server did not reply', not an absent artifact. Reproduced against fossil 2.28 and pinned as smoke S9.

That also means the planned e2e ('a clone does not receive it') was never mutation-sensitive: it passes with this slice fully removed. The observable that pins the slice is the ABSENCE of an igot card naming a shunned artifact in a non-clone round's inventory walk, which now has its own test and a second round in the raw-HTTP e2e case.

Smoke uses a defer-shunned fixture, not the planned packed one: pack rebuilds the delta chains and so removes the exact hazard the check exists to catch.

logstore.zig carries a comment-only change: LogStore.shunned's doc claimed two questions were open that S4 and S5 have since closed.

shun S6: receive-side admission, asymmetric as the spec has it

SS7.7 L1434-1452, as one combined predicate: a target is shunned for admission when its complete name is in the shun table OR shun-sha1 applies to its SHA1 name. TargetAdmission.admits carries the whole rule, including the two card rules -- a clone file card BYPASSES the check and is stored; everything else consults it.

That asymmetry is deliberate and is the applied text. zit's own erratum argued the discard should apply in clone too and four reviews rejected it against fossil's xfer.c. A test pins the bypass so a later reader does not 'fix' it back into the shape that was refused.

For cfile the SS7.5 private discard runs first and the raw artifact-card count still increments -- both satisfied by placing the check below code that already existed, not by adding any.

Admission is target-only. A shunned DELTASRC is not independently rejected: a held basis still serves, and an unavailable one falls to ordinary dangling-delta handling whose phantom SS3.3 already excludes from gimme.

The planned e2e did not pin anything and was rewritten. A real zit push passes with the whole check removed, because transfer is receiver-driven and SS3.3 already stops this server begging for a shunned name. The shipped test POSTs an UNSOLICITED push+file container at a live serve -- the only shape that reaches this code -- and it goes red without it.

Smoke S10 is real interop coverage but cannot pin this slice for the same reason, and its header says so rather than letting a green be misread. check-in: 620ed6a9c3 user: dmestas tags: shun-implementation

shun S3: the zit shun verb

Refuses by default and names what would be destroyed; --force proceeds; never prompts. Reclaims by default -- one rewrite for N hashes, which is why the usage takes HASH... --defer records the tombstone without rewriting, and is also gated by --force: the row is irreversible and S1's mask hides the content immediately, so it is not the safe half of the verb.

The check-in this checkout is on cannot be shunned at all, with no override.

runShun does NOT reuse runPack's plumbing verbatim as planned -- it diverges on the filter (the source's deferred rows UNION the newly named hashes), on writing tombstones into the new generation, and on its renderer. The shared body is extracted as rewriteAndSwap instead.

Fixes a dead concurrency guard in that shared body, which predates this slice. FileStorage.sizeImpl returns a cached watermark rather than stat'ing, so validateTail was comparing a key against the number it was derived from and could never abort. pack carried the same dead guard. rewriteAndSwap now stats fresh at the check point; without that, this slice's claim that an aborted --force leaves no tombstone was unprovable.

Consequence lines carry no counts or filenames: 'N descendant check-ins' and a blob's path both need a reverse F-card walk over every manifest, which is too much for the cheap refusal path. Deferred, not faked.

No sub-manifest row: that type and its draft are not on this branch. shunConsequence is a total switch, so a ninth type will not compile without its diagnostic. check-in: be67814135 user: dmestas tags: shun-implementation
