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

shun S2: pack reclaims what the shun table names

packLog takes a borrowed Filter; a dropped rid is not copied, PackStats.dropped counts it, and packVerifyShunned refuses to swap in a store still holding a digest the filter was told to remove. keep_all is the identity, so every other caller behaves as before.

The check runs BEFORE reconstruction and before the SS7.7 verify. A shunned artifact may be unlawful or simply broken, and verifying it would abort the very operation meant to remove it. Two tests pin the ordering: one frame whose content no longer hashes to its name, one that will not decode at all. The second closes a hole the first left in deriveCandidateHints.

putArtifactPacked's floor_span became optional. A delta whose base the filter dropped has no keepable frame, and 'I have no floor' is a different claim from 'my floor spans N bytes'; an in-band sentinel could not tell that from a miscomputed span.

pack_help no longer overclaims: damaged CONTENT does not block the reclaim, a damaged CHECKSUM still does, because the open-time pre-flight covers the whole store before any reclaim runs.

Merges S5's e2e block alongside this slice's. Fossil's suggested resolution would have dropped this one. check-in: 341009e699 user: dmestas tags: shun-implementation

shun S5: never gimme a name in the shun table

sync SS3.3 L527-530 excludes shun-table names from the ordinary phantom scan. The predicate already existed and its call site hardcoded false; S5 supplies the durable state through a borrowed ShunSet whose .none identity leaves every existing construction site unchanged. The literal reading is kept: an igot for a shunned hash still CREATES the phantom (SS3.3 L511-514) -- it is simply never requested, so the phantom is inert and permanent.

Three consequences the reviews forced out:

A shunned phantom no longer counts as unresolved. It was told about and refused, not asked for and withheld; counting it made zit pull fail on every future pull, since the peer re-announces each round.

The server consults the set too. SS3.3 states the filter on the phantom scan without qualifying a side, and a server under push-receive is a receiver, so an inbound igot could otherwise walk a shunned artifact straight back in.

parseIgotCard now rejects a name that is not 40 or 64 hex, as parseGimmeCard already did (artifact-format SS3.2 L349-350). Widening the shun predicate to answer false for an out-of-domain name would have been the fail-open fix. check-in: 1c41f96e86 user: dmestas tags: shun-implementation
