object.rs

1//! Core object types: [`Blob`] and [`Tree`].
2//!
3//! Every object has a canonical byte encoding (`encode_body`). Its content
4//! address is `BLAKE3(encode_body())`. For a [`Blob`] the body is the raw
5//! file content, so the id is `blake3(content)` exactly as `docs/DATA_MODEL.md`
6//! specifies. For a [`Tree`] the body is MessagePack of the entry list with
7//! entries sorted by name, making the id deterministic regardless of insertion
8//! order.
