# Git commit history — features and their cherry-picks
|
|
|
|
Reference for **which commits carried which feature onto `master`**, so a
|
|
feature can be traced, re-reviewed, or reverted as a unit long after the
|
|
history it was written in has moved on.
|
|
|
|
## The workflow this file records
|
|
|
|
1. **Development happens on `dev`.** Not on `master`, and not on a fresh
|
|
branch per feature.
|
|
2. **Every commit on `dev` carries a feature-specific unique prefix**, written
|
|
as the conventional-commit scope — `feat(db2-keys): …`, `fix(db2-keys): …`.
|
|
The scope, not a bare leading word, so the repo keeps the `feat`/`fix`/`docs`
|
|
type it has used throughout. One prefix per feature, reused by every commit
|
|
belonging to it, which makes a feature's commits selectable with
|
|
`git log --grep` without reading a single diff.
|
|
3. **When the feature is ready** — complete, not merely green — `git checkout
|
|
master` and **cherry-pick** that feature's commits, in order.
|
|
4. **Record the result below**: the `dev` hashes, the `master` hashes the
|
|
cherry-pick produced, and the date. The two differ — a cherry-pick makes new
|
|
commits — and that mapping is the whole reason this file exists.
|
|
|
|
Ready means the same gate as always: no half-implemented feature reaches
|
|
master. An annotation the compiler accepts but does not honour counts as
|
|
broken, however green the suite.
|
|
|
|
## Prefix registry
|
|
|
|
One row per feature. The prefix is claimed here before its first commit, so two
|
|
features cannot collide.
|
|
|
|
| Prefix | Feature | Status |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| `commit-history` | this file and the workflow it records | ✅ on `dev` |
|
|
| `db2-keys` | databasev2 2 — `resident: keys` storage and readers | on `dev` (`125bd09`, `08abd09`, `0c97fa4`, `f606fc9`). **Not ready**: the loader still refuses the annotation, and updates on such a table are refused rather than implemented |
|
|
|
|
## Cherry-picks onto master
|
|
|
|
Newest first. `dev` hash is the original; `master` hash is what the cherry-pick
|
|
produced.
|
|
|
|
| Date | Prefix | Feature | `dev` → `master` |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| — | — | *nothing cherry-picked onto master under this convention yet* | — |
|
|
|
|
## Before this convention
|
|
|
|
Work up to 2026-08-29 landed on `master` by **merging** feature branches, so
|
|
those commits keep their original hashes and have no entry here.
|
|
`git log --merges master` is the record for that period.
|
|
|
|
The `db2-keys` commits are the seam: they were written on
|
|
`porch-store-middleware` before this convention (`18ce4d5`, `f9c36ef`,
|
|
`11a92df`, `91411ae`) and were replayed onto `dev` with prefixed titles. The
|
|
replay was verified identical, not merely applied — `git diff` between the two
|
|
branches over `database/`, `runtime/` and `docs/stories/` is empty.
