format.rs

1//! The attestation format: the payload's fields, the note's blocks, and the
2//! names every producer and verifier shares (SPEC.md, "The note").

5/// string must treat the note as absent: an unknown version may mean anything,
6/// and "run the tests" is the only safe reading of anything.

13/// Every key there is a synthetic oid that is not an object, which is why it
14/// is a separate ref: `git notes prune` on it would drop everything, and the
15/// main ref keeps its 1.x invariant that every key is real.

54/// The grammar (SPEC.md): skip blank lines; a payload runs to the first blank
55/// line; skip blank lines; the next line must be the BEGIN marker, or parsing
56/// STOPS and what was collected so far stands; the signature runs to the END
