monochromatic-git-policy-cli 0.5.31

//! What:
//!  The wait of a command that is about to change the checkout for any program's hold on Git's `index.lock`: the commit
//!  service's, a foreign `git`'s, or a lock nothing proves held. Event-driven, with a notice that names what is waited for
//!  and the holder, and over as soon as the lock is gone. A holder proven alive and an owner that cannot be proven alive are
//!  both waited for with no bound, because the person's own `git commit` with its editor open holds the lock with no proof;
//!  the line for the second says what is known and how to remove the lock if no program uses the repository. A PID file naming
//!  a process that is gone ends the wait at once with a diagnostic.
//! Why:
//!  Native Git never waits for `index.lock`: a merge that finds it held dies (`Unable to create ... index.lock` or, from the
//!  stash that every merge commit takes first, `could not write index` and `stash failed`). Other sessions commit into a
//!  shared checkout all the time, so a held lock is ordinary and passes by itself. This wait is the sibling of the wait for
//!  the commit service's own hold (`service_index_wait.rs`), which returns at once for a foreign holder because a plain
//!  forwarded writer keeps the behavior of native Git; a merge is held to the owner's rule that merges never fail
//!  (`SPEC.md`, "Merges and commits never fail"). The wait blocks on an inotify watch set before the first look, so a
//!  release between the look and the wait is not missed; where no watch can be set it looks again after a short pause.
//!  It never removes a lock.
//!
//! In TS you'd write (pseudocode):
//! ```ts
//! const outcome = await waitForIndexRelease({ realIndex, command: 'merge', cadence, stderr });
//! ```
