notes.rs

//! Storage: benchmark results as git notes under `refs/notes/tak`.
//!
//! Why notes rather than an orphan branch or a committed file:
//!
//! - The data is *about a commit*, which is exactly what notes are for.
//! - `cat_sort_uniq` resolves concurrent writers with no custom merge driver.
//! - The notes tree is keyed by commit SHA as *path names* and does not reference
//!   the annotated commits, so a single shallow fetch of this one ref returns the
//!   entire history without cloning the repository — measured at 36ms / 124K for
//!   100 commits × 6 benchmarks, with zero project commit objects transferred.
//!   That property is what makes a hosted dashboard cheap.
//!
//! All network operations shell out to `git` on purpose. `actions/checkout` sets
//! up auth via `http.extraheader`, and users have credential helpers, SSH agents
//! and corporate proxies; reimplementing any of that is a trap. Local object
//! access can move to `gix` later without changing this boundary.
