copy.rs

//! The copy verb: one item out of one source and into another, by the rules that make a
//! second copy an update rather than a duplicate.
//!
//! Correspondence lives on the items and never in a table. A copied item carries
//! [`GlobalId::ORIGIN_KEY`], whose value is the qualified id it was copied from, and the
//! item it was copied from carries [`MetadataKey::COPIES_KEY`], an object naming its
//! counterpart at each destination it was copied into. The rules below read exactly those —
//! so nothing here is written down outside the plugin that owns the item, and the invariant
//! this engine is built around is untouched.
//!
//! 0. **Follow the link.** An item whose `onetaskgraph.copies` names an item at the
//!    destination has that item read by id, and when that item's own origin names this one
//!    back it is the target: one read, and no scan. A link naming nothing there any more is
//!    refused as `stale-link` unless `--recreate` is given, for the reason a stale origin
//!    is; a link naming an item that no longer names this one back — somebody re-pointed it
//!    — is ignored, and the rules below decide.
//! 1. **Follow the origin.** An item already carrying an origin whose source half is the
//!    destination names the destination item *directly*, and the copy updates it. This is
//!    the half that makes an edit's copy-back an update: the local file came from the
//!    remote item and knows which one.
//! 2. **Search by origin.** Otherwise the destination is scanned, one page at a time, for
//!    an item whose origin is the id being copied. Found, the copy updates it; not found,
//!    the copy creates one carrying that origin.
//!
//! Which rule found the item decides what the copy records there. A copy that got its
//! target from rule 1 is a copy-back — the destination is the *original*, and the item
//! being copied is the one that came from it — so the destination keeps the origin it
//! already holds, holding none included. Every other copy records the id it was copied
//! from. See [`recorded`] for what stamping a copy-back's own id there costs.
//!
//! The same distinction decides the link. Once the whole copy has landed, every item whose
//! target was found by any rule but rule 1 — or was created — has its link for this
//! destination recorded or refreshed through its source's narrow metadata write, and that
//! write joins the undo journal like every destination write. Rule 1 records nothing: that
//! correspondence is already written down, on the destination item.
//!
//! A destination write is at the user's explicit request, names its destination, goes
//! through that source's own write interface into that source's own store, and is never
//! read back to answer a query. That is what makes it a write and not a cache.
