flint_lean/verbs.rs
1//! The one-shot verbs, and which of them takes the publish fence.
2//!
3//! Lifted out of `bin/flint_sync.rs` so the RULE — which verb claims —
4//! is a property the battery can execute rather than a line of dispatch
5//! nobody can reach from a test. `a_checkout_does_not_wait_out_a_\
6//! standing_lease` in `tests.rs` calls `read_only_then`, the same
7//! function the dispatch calls, rather than a re-implementation of it.

116/// A verb that reads the bucket and writes only this pod's own tree.

118/// It does NOT claim the epoch, and that is the point. The epoch cell
119/// is a PUBLISH fence: it decides which of several syncers may install
120/// a manifest. A checkout installs nothing — it GETs the manifest and
121/// GETs the objects it cites, and every one of those GETs already
122/// carries the cited etag as `If-Match`, so a publisher racing a reader
123/// yields a 412 (handled, loudly, in `checkout.rs`) and never a torn
124/// file.
125///
126/// What claiming actually bought was a DEADLOCK dressed as mutual
127/// exclusion. `claim_step` supersedes a foreign holder only after six
128/// observations in which its token did not advance — and a LIVE holder
129/// renews, so its token always advances. A checkout that met a running
130/// publisher therefore waited forever, and a publisher that met a
131/// checkout waited for it (forge's export already carries a timeout for
132/// exactly this: `export.rs`, "waits for a foreign lease forever").
133/// Measured 2026-09-11: four syncers reading disjoint subtrees of one
134/// prefix ran 2.1x faster with the claim skipped, and 0.41x — SLOWER
135/// than one syncer — with it, because they serialised on the cell.
136///
137/// Two things here are not the lease and stay:
138/// * `verify_claim` — the project-id precondition. A refusal, not a
139/// fence: this prefix is another project's and must not be read or
140/// written by us at all.
141/// * `warn_if_prefix_is_shared` — a diagnostic nobody else emits.

144/// same reason stated the same way; this makes `checkout` the third.
