manifest.rs

1//! `pack.toml` — the manifest carried at the head of every `.pack` archive.
2//!
3//! The manifest is what makes a pack *inspectable without unpacking*: it is
4//! written as the first entry of the tar stream, so [`crate::inspect`] can stop
5//! reading as soon as it has been decoded.
6//!
7//! It records three classes of information:
8//!
9//! 1. **provenance** — where the pack came from and when.
10//! 2. **what was deliberately left out** — cache directories (regenerable) and
11//!    secrets (never packed; carrying those is the operator's own business).
12//! 3. **what needs attention on restore** — symlinks that point outside the
13//!    project, and worktrees whose absolute `gitdir` pointers were rewritten.
