Changes touching this path

  • the second review sweep of this run finds gc --pack crediting packing with the PRUNE bytes and staying silent about it, and the repair is a NARROWER SIGNATURE rather than a wider condition: size_note took the before and after totals and returned nothing whenever the store shrank, so on this repo own store, 2330 unreachable objects against roughly 250 KB of table, it would print 146.7 MiB falling to 110 MiB and say NOTHING - the exact misreading ADR 0083 warns about in its own text, in the verb written to honour that warning. packing_note now takes the REPORT and cannot see the totals at all, so no combined direction is able to suppress it, and it fires on buckets_repacked. the figure is measured by the packer rather than derived from the pair: overhead_of is header plus table, encode sizes its first body offset FROM it, and the report carries the table a rewritten bucket now holds LESS the one it replaced, computed above the dry-run bail so a dry run reports what a real run does. the pin the attribution actually rests on is new and runs a real repack over a store holding a loose orphan AND a packed one, asserting that before minus pruned minus dropped plus table equals after with every term from its own producer and the sum checked against a census none of them took, 11012 - 4141 - 4141 + 275 = 3005, and asserting the two directions genuinely disagree, which is the defect in miniature on real bytes. the pin that encoded the WRONG rule is deleted rather than preserved. four weak pins have now been found in one run and the last two were invisible to the mutation sweeps, because a sweep only tests the pins you AIM it at and therefore cannot find a pin that tests nothing - the count rule of 1812 proves a pin is LIVE, not that it is aimed at anything, and that limit is now written down. two mutations make the point by experiment rather than argument: under a copy-instead-of-rename and under a helper that unlinks a bucket without writing its pack, the OLD tests stay GREEN. one proposed fix is refused with its reason, that routing a reader fixture through the writer would assert only that the two agree and go on agreeing if both move together, which is the same vacuity the membership pin was written to avoid and which eight reader tests depend on not having; the real complaint is fixed by asserting a structural post-condition instead. the walk census contradicted itself inside one commit and the count is now stated ONCE in CONTEXT.md with the code referring to it, choosing live set as the load-bearing word because verify own node list is a ROOT SET FOR ABSENCE that is never consulted about deletion and deliberately KEEPS burned oids where a live set drops them. the commit record of c6b1cae carries the wrong version and cannot be fixed, so CONTEXT.md records that too (#1823) 907d2a9d · dbf3dbe6…

Renames are not followed. loot's tree maps a path to an address, so a rename is a delete and an add. This list is the history of the name, not of the bytes.
