Merge s1-tidy: a dead-file guard before the cmd/ split

Zig runs only the tests reachable from a root the build compiles. A source file no root imports still compiles -- its tests just stop running, and nothing fails. That is the defining hazard of the coming main.zig split, so the guard lands first. A test walks every src/**/*.zig, builds the import graph, and asserts each file is reachable from one of the three roots: root.zig, main.zig's test block, or dst.zig. The failure names the file and the one-line import that fixes it. Six files that build.zig wires as their own roots are allowlisted, and the list itself is checked so a stale or newly-reachable entry fails rather than hiding a real orphan.

The DeadFilesDetector pattern is borrowed from TigerBeetle's src/tidy.zig. check-in: 60b10a6332 user: dmestas tags: trunk

Add tidy dead-file guard over the src test surface

Zig runs only the tests reachable from a root the build compiles. A .zig file that no root imports still compiles -- its tests simply stop running and coverage evaporates with no error. tidy.zig walks src/**/*.zig, builds the @import graph, and asserts every file is reachable from one of the three test roots: root.zig (exported module), main.zig's test block (CLI surface), and dst.zig (harnesses). An allowlist carries the files build.zig wires as their own roots -- e2e, smoke, and the benchmarks -- each verified rather than papered over, and a hygiene check fails if an allowlist entry goes stale or becomes reachable. On a miss the failure names the file and the one-line import that re-roots it.

This lands before the main.zig to src/cmd split so that move cannot silently orphan a file's tests.

Mechanism borrowed from TigerBeetle's src/tidy.zig DeadFilesDetector, which walks its own tree and fails the build when a file falls out of the import graph. closed check-in: a8d7f6b621 user: dmestas tags: s1-tidy

Merge p5b-docs: 0.1.0 release notes and an honest limitations table

Adds the release notes as a shipped asset and a limitations section to the README, both stating plainly what 0.1.0 does not do: diff is name-status against the current check-in only, the sync server code is an informational placeholder while the project code is real, the R and W cards are carried but not interpreted, and stash/grep/ui/settings and rev-to-rev diff are absent. The notes record what the conformance claim rests on -- smoke driving the real fossil binary in CI -- and cite the pack measurements to their existing benchmark rather than restating them as fresh claims. The version stamp is left for the ship step. check-in: 7ba838ab6c user: dmestas tags: trunk

Merge p5a-help: pin that help names every dispatched verb

Help already listed all dispatched verbs, but nothing held it that way: a verb added later could ship without a help line and no test would notice. An end-to-end pin now drives off the Verb enum itself and fails, naming the offender, if any dispatched verb is absent from zit help -- so the audit cannot silently rot as the command set grows. check-in: 7a0735c415 user: dmestas tags: trunk

notes: name -n's timeline/log limit, not only its dry-run preview

The command summary described -n as previewing the destructive verbs alone; it also caps timeline and log at the most recent N, and -R reads a repository with no working tree. Both are stated so the summary does not undersell what shipped. closed check-in: 80913fe845 user: dmestas tags: p5b-docs
