//! **Which implementation of each trait a store is built on** — one selector,
//! read once, never per operation.
//!
//! Three traits in this crate have more than one implementation, every one of
//! them written and benchmarked (PLAN §7, §8):
//!
//! | trait | arms | what varies |
//! |---|---|---|
//! | [`ArchiveWrite`] | [`WriterArm::Fast`] / [`Safe`](WriterArm::Safe) / [`Uring`](WriterArm::Uring) | **the durability contract**, and nothing else |
//! | [`ObjectIndex`](crate::index_layout::ObjectIndex) | [`IndexArm::OneTableFourColumns`] / [`FourTables`](IndexArm::FourTables) / [`PackedPayload`](IndexArm::PackedPayload) | the payload layout behind the same `stree` |
//! | [`Gc`] | [`GcArm::NewGeneration`] / [`CompactInPlace`](GcArm::CompactInPlace) | whether the old generation survives until the new one is proven |
//!
//! Until this module existed, `GitStore` named one of each by hand, so none of
//! them could be A/B'd through a server or a bench without editing the source.
//! [`StoreConfig`] is that choice made data.
//!
//! # The default is the shipping combination and it did not move
//!
//! [`StoreConfig::DEFAULT`] is `SafeWriter` + `ObjectReadStack<OneTableFourColumns>`
//! + `NewGeneration`, which is exactly what
//! [`GitStore::open`](crate::git_ops::GitStore::open) built before this module
//! and is exactly what it builds now.
//! **`open` and `open_with` do not read the environment at all** — an operator
//! who exports a variable cannot silently change the durability contract under a
//! caller that never asked for a selector. Choosing an arm is something a caller
//! does on purpose, through
//! [`open_with_arms`](crate::git_ops::GitStore::open_with_arms) or
//! [`open_from_env`](crate::git_ops::open_from_env).
//!
//! # Read once, at construction. Never per operation.
//!
//! Every `getenv` this crate performs goes through [`read_env`] and happens
//! either inside [`StoreConfig::from_env`] (which a store calls **once**, while
//! it is being opened — the three arms and, since 2026-08-21, the cache ceiling
//! with them) or behind a process-wide `OnceLock` for the knobs that never vary
//! between two stores in one process. A `std::env::var` in a copy loop would be
//! one syscall per object served, and that exact defect was found and fixed in
//! gunnar the day before this was written. It is not a style rule here, it is
//! asserted: [`env_reads_here`] counts every read this module makes on the
//! calling thread, and
//! `the_selector_is_read_once_at_construction_and_never_per_operation` pushes
//! and serves a whole pack across an unchanged counter.
//!
//! Five reads at construction — three arms, the cache ceiling and the explode
//! policy — and zero per operation. [`env_reads`] is the same count
//! process-wide; see [`env_reads_here`] for why the guard asserts on the
//! thread-local one. The complete roster of keys is [`ALL_ENV`].
//!
//! # The names, so an operator can type them
//!
//! ```text
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_WRITER = fast | safe | uring     (default: safe)
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_INDEX  = one-table | four-tables | packed   (default: one-table)
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_GC     = new-generation | in-place          (default: new-generation)
//!
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_REDB_CACHE_BYTES = <bytes>                  (default: 67108864)
//!
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_EXPLODE        = off | graph | full          (default: see exploded_arrow.rs)
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_BOUNDARY_DELTA = 0 | off | false to disable  (default: on)
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_REACH_COMMITS  = <commits>                   (default: 512)
//!   ZNIPPY_GIT_EMIT_WORKERS   = <workers>, 0 = all cores    (default: 4)
//! ```
//!
//! The first four are per store and are what [`StoreConfig`] holds and prints;
//! the last four are per process. [`ALL_ENV`] is all eight, and a consumer that
//! has to carry any of them across a boundary asserts its list against it.
//!
//! An unset variable takes the default. A variable set to something else is an
//! **error**, named and listing what is accepted — a typo that silently fell
//! back to the default would make an operator believe a measurement came from an
//! arm that never ran, which is worse than a failed open.
//!
//! ⚠ The fourth one is **not an arm**, and it is the only variable here that
//! [`GitStore::open`](crate::git_ops::GitStore::open) reads. It selects no
//! implementation and changes no contract — it is a memory ceiling, and redb's
//! own default for it is 1 GiB *per database*. See [`redb_cache_bytes`].

/// 10 % write by `set_cache_size` (`db.rs:1184`). A store opens two of them, so
/// the stock ceiling is 2 GiB *per repository*, and a long-lived server holding
/// N repositories has N times that.
///
/// It is a ceiling and not a reservation, so a small repository never noticed.

/// `objects.exploded`): a single clone parked **594 MB resident** and kept it for
/// the life of the process, because the pages a full-file traversal touched all
/// fit under the ceiling and nothing evicted them.
///
/// # How the default was chosen
///
/// A B-tree read cache earns its keep on the **interior** nodes, which every
/// lookup re-touches, and earns nothing on a single sequential pass over the
/// leaves, which is what a `refold` is. The interior levels of a 4 KiB-page
/// B-tree over that 1.078 GB table are ~7 MB; 64 MiB holds all of them nine
/// times over and leaves 6.4 MiB of write cache, which is more than one absorb
/// batch dirties. Measured against the 1 GiB default on the clone path it costs
/// nothing and returns most of the resident set — see the sweep in
/// `agentAA-report.md`.
///
/// # This is the one environment read that is not an arm
///
/// Every other variable in this module selects an *implementation* and therefore
/// changes what the store promises, which is why
/// [`GitStore::open`](crate::git_ops::GitStore::open) deliberately reads none of
/// them. This one selects nothing: it is a memory ceiling, every arm behaves
/// identically under any value of it, and the bytes on disk are the same either
/// way. So it *is* read on the `open` path — an operator who has to cap a
/// server's footprint cannot be told to use a different constructor.
