zit merge-tree: write the tree a merge would produce, as files or a tar, without a checkout or store writes check-in: 5471e96902 user: dmestas tags: trunk
23:13
One store-level merge produces the merged tree, modes included; merge --probe, the chained probe and landing call it check-in: c61f1fc9ff user: dmestas tags: trunk
22:55
merge takes a mode the other side alone changed, as Fossil does; an overwrite applies the mode check-in: 8dba50836f user: dmestas tags: trunk
22:23
landing reads find forum posts through an index kept in .zit-cache, walking only what was appended since the last read check-in: 658d4a733d user: dmestas tags: trunk
20:37
commit holds the store lock only to snapshot and to publish, not through the tree scan, editor or signing check-in: 6145d7a7b8 user: dmestas tags: trunk
20:22
A writer turned away by a busy lock says so once; serve answers it 503 check-in: 5a0b10fa8d user: dmestas tags: trunk
19:37
Lock notices append to a redirected stderr instead of overwriting it check-in: d59b4a1827 user: dmestas tags: trunk
16:44
zit git export/status: a remembered Git mirror with autopush

git export exports into MIRROR and remembers it, with an autopush URL, push branch and email domain, in repository config; a bare re-run does the round trip. Authors' addresses come from their user-table contact, set with the new users contact. Autopush URLs carrying a password are refused. The config payload bound is now sized from its key count. Release 0.3.34. check-in: 5fce7e867d user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.34

12:53
pack, shun --force: fsync the directory after the rename; model it in DST

The rename that installs a new generation was never made durable, so a power loss after a reported success could bring the old store back, and with it content a shun had removed. The fault layer now reverts creates, renames and deletes no directory fsync made durable, and the shun sweep requires a rewrite that succeeded to survive a power cut. check-in: 3873759cfa user: dmestas tags: trunk

12:35
landing accept: read the target once; --expect-target refuses a moved one

accept merged onto the target resolved by name at merge time, so a landing accepted meanwhile put an untested target under the merge. It now reads the target once and merges onto that check-in by hash. --expect-target HASH refuses with exit 7 and nothing written when the target is no longer at HASH. check-in: 676068f793 user: dmestas tags: trunk

11:59
Lock the store with exclusive-create lock files instead of flock

Writers create .zit.lock with O_CREAT|O_EXCL before opening the store. A waiter names the holder and gives up after a minute; a dead holder's lock is broken; pack and shun --force hold the writer lock across their final check and rename. Release 0.3.33. check-in: d6cf7bf59c user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.33

02:59
import-git: record a project code; verify notes a store without one

import-git wrote no project code, so every sync peer and forge refused the store it made. It now derives one from the destination's absolute path, as init does, and the import request requires it. verify notes a repository with no project code without counting it as damage. check-in: add51a12d2 user: dmestas tags: trunk

02:39
Take the writer lock inside LogStore.open and test the lock class

LogStore.open now takes the exclusive lock before it reads the file's length and scans for the end, and a read-only handle refuses to append. purge undo opens the store through the shared writer path.

A new DST sweep runs two to four writers interleaved against one log through a file that models the lock. It flags unlocked or misplaced appends as they happen, checks each writer sees everything committed before it locked and reads back its own writes, including deltas. A source check fails on any write-mode open of the store outside openStoreAppend. An e2e test races commits, tags and user-table writes on one store and counts what landed. check-in: 5c445bb3f3 user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.32

2026-09-27
20:37
purge undo: take the store's append lock before restoring

It appended without the lock every other writer takes, so a concurrent commit, pull or push could overwrite its frames or have its own overwritten with valid frames nothing could detect. It now opens through openStoreAppend, which also resolves a detached worktree's store. Release 0.3.32. check-in: 2249f19056 user: dmestas tags: trunk

soak: print its log into the job, and let the artifact upload fail alone

The artifact quota is shared with every repository on the account; a full one failed the log upload on two nights the soak passed. The log is now printed into the job output, which is kept 90 days outside the quota, and the upload no longer decides the run. check-in: 96b430bb17 user: dmestas tags: trunk

17:56
landing accept: merge the tip it read once; --expect-tip refuses a moved branch

accept read the branch tip up to three times and merged it by name, so a push mid-accept could be merged unprobed. It now reads the tip once and merges that hash on both paths. --expect-tip HASH refuses with exit 6 and nothing written when the branch is no longer at HASH. Release 0.3.31. check-in: 60890d6661 user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.31

2026-09-25
21:14
release workflow: keep its artifacts three days, not thirty

Every artifact it uploads is transit, published to the uv store and a GitHub release the day it is built. Thirty days kept ~40 MB per release against the 500 MB storage quota, and a full quota failed the soak's log upload. check-in: 29f07577ae user: dmestas tags: trunk

transport: refuse Basic over plain http to another host; drop it on a cross-host redirect

A Basic challenge was answered whatever the scheme, so over http the password crossed readable and the saved remote repeated it. It is now refused to non-loopback hosts, naming the https URL; a redirect to another host drops the credential; plain http to another host notes it on stderr. Release 0.3.30. check-in: b637cbd37c user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.30

01:02
soak: record a finding and keep sweeping; CI: cap the runners' zig cache

A failing fuzz target is abandoned and the sweep moves on, so one recurring crash no longer hides the targets after it; the exit lists every finding. Each workflow clears its zig-local cache whole at job start once it passes 8 GB, since Zig never prunes it. check-in: 8ebc3e4dd8 user: dmestas tags: trunk

inflate: a truncated dynamic-block header is the end of the stream, not a crash

tossBitsShort added the consumed bits where it must subtract them, so a header ending one byte short tossed past the end of the input and the next peek read a wrapped length off the stack. Found by the nightly soak four nights running. Release 0.3.29. check-in: 362f18d357 user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.29

13:47
config export, and merge --probe over a stack

config export AREA [FILE] writes fossil's configuration export format, so an area can be backed up before import replaces it; import and merge now apply /shun cards, add-only in both modes. merge --probe with several NAMEs answers each against TARGET with the ones before it landed, holding merged files in memory and moving the merge base with the landing. Release 0.3.28. check-in: c5243e961f user: dmestas tags: trunk, version-0.3.28
