Make `git2` an *optional* dependency of `radicle-cob`, and refactor
`radicle` to depend on crates that in turn do not depend on `git2`
*non-optionally*
The main offending dependency of `radicle-cob` is `radicle-git-ext`
from the `radicle-git` workspace in repository
(rad:z6cFWeWpnZNHh9rUW8phgA3b5yGt) which *non-optionally* depends on
`git2`.
So, to achieve removal of this dependency:
1. The crate is refactored to depend on the new crates
`radicle-git-ref-format` `radicle-git-metadata`, and
`radicle-oid` introduced in the previous commits, instead of
`radicle-git-ext`.
2. Some code from the `radicle-git-ext` crate in the `radicle-git`
workspace in repository (rad:z6cFWeWpnZNHh9rUW8phgA3b5yGt) is
copied. See `crates/radicle-cob/src/backend/git/commit.rs`.
This cascades to `radicle` and its dependents.
Firstly, the there is an
`impl Deref<Target=git2::Oid> for radicle_git_ext::Oid`. This made
it very convenient to just deref to obtain the wrapped `git2::Oid`,
so there are many expressions of the shape `*oid` in `radicle` and
its dependents. However `radicle-oid` does not provide
`impl Deref<Target=git2::Oid> for radicle_oid::Oid`, as notably,
`Target` is an associated type, and not a type parameter, so an
implementation of `Deref` would tie the new `Oid` too tightly to a
particular implementation.
Instead, work with `impl From<radicle_oid::Oid> for git2::Oid`
(which can be enabled using the feature flag `radicle-oid/git2`).
This explains the changes from `*oid` to `oid.into()` at every
transition to "`git2` land".
Secondly, `radicle` and its dependents are refactored to also depend
on `radicle-git-ref-format` and (much less prominently)
`radicle-git-metadata` instead of `radicle-git-ext`
This is to avoid pulling in `git2` via these dependencies.
Thirdly, as the re-exports in `crates/radicle/src/git.rs` change,
they are at the same time also cleaned up. Notably, the types from
`radicle-git-ref-format` are re-exported under `fmt` only, not "twice".
While overall this obviously is very much a breaking change, these
changes should mostly amount to changing from `Deref` to `Into`, i.e.,
`*oid` → `oid.into()` and rewriting imports for `radicle::fmt`.
This is indicated by the mostly mechanical nature of the changes to
`crates/radicle-{cli,node,remote-helper}`.
A refactoring internal to the `radicle` crate, with the goal of
making dependency on `git2` clearer and more controlled.
`radicle::raw` is changed from a complete re-export of `git2`
to a module that selectively re-exports (many) members of `git2`.
required to build the workspace (potentially breaking dependents
outside the workspace, but given just how many types are
re-exported, this seems unlikely).
In the future, no more `use git2::…` statements should be added
outside of `crates/radicle/src/git/raw.rs`. This is in an effort to
decrease dependence on `git2` in the future.
As a library crate, it is bad to return such generic errors.
To get there, errors from `inquire` are downcasted.
This allowed to clean up the public interface of `radicle-term`, so that
it does also not leak the `inquire::InquireError` in its public API.
Ensure that the default branch is only ever synthesized from the `Doc`'s
`threshold` and `delegates` value. If the rule is ever written into a `RawDoc`,
then the update of the that `RawDoc` must go through the `update::veryify`
function, which checks that the rule is not present.
The business logic of modifying the identity document should not live in the CLI
code for updating said document.
Instead, we extract out that logic into separate update functions and these are
using from the CLI instead.
Introduce the `rules` module beneath `canonical`. The implementation follows
the Canonical References RIP[^0].
A `Rule` defines the DIDs and threshold required to get the canonical tip
for a reference (or set of references). Since a `Rule` has some specific
validation rules, there can be two versions of a `Rule`. The `RawRule` is one
that can be easily constructed, serialized, and deserialized. It must then be
validated into a `ValidRule`, which validates any constraints, and can be used
in the computing of a canonical tip.
For convenience, a set of `ValidRule`s is wrapped into the `Rules` type, which
also has a further constraint that each rule refers to a specific `refspec`.
