What changed and why

Since #578 (3f768a66), make siblings asks about the holder's parent folder before it looks at any member. From a holder whose parent folder is not named after the holder's repository, nor reached through a link of that name beside it, it clones nothing, prints NOTHING WAS CLONED and the exact mv, and exits 1 (make: 2). Two sentences the doctor's members row prints about it were true only before that.

  • The green note on a member with no working clone said "make siblings places them". It now says when:

    (make siblings places them when the holder is in a folder named after its repository, or in one a link of that name beside it leads to; with the holder anywhere else it clones nothing and prints the mv that moves it into such a folder; the pinned copy under members/ is detached by design)

  • The stranger note, on a directory beside the holder that is a clone of another repository, said "make siblings calls the same directory WRONG ORIGIN and leaves it exactly as it is". That holds only once the folder passes: make siblings stops before it reaches any member. It now says "make siblings, from a holder in a folder named after its repository, calls the same directory WRONG ORIGIN and leaves it exactly as it is". What make siblings prints for such a directory is unchanged: the WRONG ORIGIN row of its layout table, and a FINDING saying the directory "is not this member and is left exactly as it is".

Round 1 (R605's review of b29dde92), two wording fixes, both measured on real holders.

  • "its repository", not "the family". siblings.py::family_folder_name is the basename of the holder's repository:, and name: is a display name that family.py init --name may make another string. On a holder made with --family Quill --name QuillWorks, the folder its README names, QuillWorks/Quill, is refused by make siblings, so "named after the family" sent that reader to the one folder it refuses.
  • "beside it" on the link. family_link looks only at <grandparent>/<name>. With links/InkRouter -> ../real-y and the holder in real-y/, the note's earlier words described the layout and make siblings still cloned nothing.

The words are static, not a second copy of #578's rule. The note says WHEN make siblings places the clones and does not test the folder. The rule lives in the holder's pinned scripts/siblings.py (family_folder_name, family_link, parent_folder_warning), and a copy in the doctor would drift from a holder pinned at another shape. make siblings prints the exact mv itself when the condition does not hold. The note is therefore the same bytes for a holder in the right folder and one in the wrong folder.

Docstrings and comments left as they were. Every other mention of make siblings in shape-doctor.py (:6660 and :6667 in origin_url, :6727 in mounted_from, :6824 in working_clone) describes how it READS a url or an origin, the comparison working_clone and verify_sibling both make. The folder check did not touch that, so none is false.

Tests

tests/test_shape_doctor.py, beside the #146 origin tests:

  • test_the_no_working_clone_note_says_when_make_siblings_places_them, for a holder in a folder named after its repository and for one in any other folder: the note's whole parenthesis is asserted byte for byte, spelt out in the test and not imported from the doctor, and the old places them; is asserted gone.
  • test_the_stranger_note_says_from_which_folder_make_siblings_calls_it: a clone of another repository beside the holder; the stranger clause is asserted byte for byte, the old one gone, and the green note follows it on the same row.

Mutants (each run on the committed bytes of 99f69931 and restored):

  • the old green-note words ( `make siblings` places them; the pinned copy under members/ is detached by design) fail 3 tests;
  • the old stranger words fail 1 test;
  • "the family" restored in both notes fails 3 tests;
  • "beside it" dropped from the link clause fails 3 tests.

Runs. Round 0, head b29dde92: tests/test_shape_doctor.py, test_doctor_next_is_a_command.py, test_family.py, test_family_makefile_siblings.py, test_park_resume_targets.py, test_cli_reference.py, test_update_shape.py, test_repo_hygiene.py and test_agents_md_codes.py: 856 passed, 3 skipped (the PowerShell line, which exists only on a Windows host). Round 1, head 99f69931 (shape-doctor.py sha256 c0a9f6f0..., tests/test_shape_doctor.py 57d0884d...): tests/test_shape_doctor.py -k "members or origin or stranger or sibling", 31 passed, 0 skipped; tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, 58 passed. Only string literals, comments and docstrings changed in round 1. No --help text changed, so docs/cli.md did not.

Summary by Sourcery

Update shape-doctor member diagnostics to reflect the conditional behavior of make siblings and protect the corrected guidance with regression tests.

Bug Fixes:

  • Correct the members diagnostic wording so it accurately describes when make siblings creates working clones and when it instead prints a move command without cloning.
  • Clarify that make siblings reports adjacent clones from another repository as WRONG ORIGIN only when invoked from the expected repository-named folder.

Tests:

  • Add regression coverage for the updated make siblings guidance across valid and invalid holder locations, including exact wording checks.

…ing clones from a holder in a folder named after the family, and that from anywhere else it clones nothing and prints the mv, as it does since #578 (#605)

The `members` row's two sentences about `make siblings` were written when it cloned first and warned after (#459 b17). Since #578 (3f768a6) it asks about the holder's parent folder before it looks at any member: from a holder whose parent folder is not named after the family, nor reached through a link named after it, it says NOTHING WAS CLONED, prints the exact `mv` that puts the holder in such a folder, and exits 1 (`make`: 2).

Two sentences were false for that holder.
- The green note on a member with no working clone said "`make siblings` places them". It now says when: "`make siblings` places them when the holder is in a folder named after the family, or in one a link of that name leads to; with the holder anywhere else it clones nothing and prints the `mv` that moves it into such a folder; the pinned copy under members/ is detached by design".
- The stranger note, on a directory beside the holder that is a clone of another repository, said "`make siblings` calls the same directory WRONG ORIGIN and leaves it exactly as it is". That holds only once the folder passes, because `make siblings` stops before it reaches any member. It now says "`make siblings`, from a holder in a folder named after the family, calls the same directory WRONG ORIGIN and leaves it exactly as it is". What `make siblings` prints for such a directory is unchanged: the `WRONG ORIGIN` row of its layout table and a `FINDING` that says the directory "is not this member and is left exactly as it is".

STATIC WORDS, NOT A SECOND COPY OF #578'S RULE. The row says WHEN `make siblings` places the clones and does not test the folder itself. The rule lives in the holder's pinned `scripts/siblings.py` (`family_folder_name`, `family_link`, `parent_folder_warning`); a copy of it in the doctor would drift from the holder's, which may be pinned at another shape. The doctor names the one command and its condition, and `make siblings` prints the exact `mv` when the condition does not hold. So the note is the same bytes for a holder in the right folder and one in the wrong folder.

No other docstring or comment in shape-doctor.py that names `make siblings` changed. They describe the comparison `working_clone` and `verify_sibling` both make of an origin, which the folder check did not touch.

Tests (`tests/test_shape_doctor.py`): the green note's whole parenthesis is asserted byte for byte, for a holder in a folder named after the family and for one in any other folder, and the stranger note's clause is asserted on a clone of another repository. Both are spelt out in the test and not imported from the doctor. Restoring the old green-note words fails three tests, and the old stranger words fail one.

Reviewer's Guide

Updates the doctor’s static members-row messages to accurately describe make siblings’s folder-dependent behavior and adds focused regression tests covering both holder locations and wrong-origin sibling reporting.

File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Clarize the members row's documentation of when make siblings creates working clones.
  • Replace the unconditional placement wording with a static explanation covering family-named folders, linked family folders, and the no-clone/mv behavior elsewhere.
  • Keep the pinned members/ copy's detached-by-design explanation.
shape-doctor.py
Qualify the stranger-directory warning to match make siblings's folder precondition.
  • State that WRONG ORIGIN is reported when invoked from a holder in a folder named after the family.
  • Preserve the existing description that the directory is not counted and remains unchanged.
shape-doctor.py
Add regression coverage for the corrected wording and its placement in the members row.
  • Assert the full no-working-clone note byte-for-byte for both valid and invalid holder parent folders.
  • Assert the full stranger note, removal of the old wording, and ordering alongside the green note.
  • Use mutants/negative assertions to ensure the old unconditional text cannot return.

Getting Help

…s needs after the holder's repository, not the family's display name, and the link that passes as one beside it (#605)

Fix round 1 for the review of b29dde9, two wording fixes, both measured on real holders.

1. "named after the family" becomes "named after its repository". `siblings.py::family_folder_name` is the basename of the holder's `repository:`, and `name:` is a display name that `family.py init --name` may make another string. On a holder made with `--family Quill --name QuillWorks`, the folder its README names, `QuillWorks/Quill`, is refused by `make siblings` ("parent folder is 'QuillWorks', not 'Quill'"), so a note that said "the family" sent that reader to the one folder it refuses. The doctor never prints the family's name, so the note names the repository instead.
2. The link clause gets "beside it": "or in one a link of that name beside it leads to". `family_link` looks only at `<grandparent>/<name>`, the link beside the holder's parent folder. A link elsewhere that leads to it passes nothing: with `links/InkRouter -> ../real-y` and the holder in `real-y/`, `make siblings` clones nothing and exits 2.

The notes now read:
- green: "(`make siblings` places them when the holder is in a folder named after its repository, or in one a link of that name beside it leads to; with the holder anywhere else it clones nothing and prints the `mv` that moves it into such a folder; the pinned copy under members/ is detached by design)"
- stranger: "(`make siblings`, from a holder in a folder named after its repository, calls the same directory WRONG ORIGIN and leaves it exactly as it is)"

The comments over both and the two test constants and docstrings say the same. The words are still static: the rule stays in the holder's pinned `scripts/siblings.py`, and the doctor does not test the folder.

Restoring "the family" in both notes fails the same three tests, and so does dropping "beside it".

…e-doctor.py and test lines, a clean merge

Main moved from 62ef256 to 55faad2 under this branch, four commits: #587 (22eacee), #615 (77bb5f0), #584 (2b6dbb7) and #591 (55faad2, for #521 and #427). #591 changed `shape-doctor.py` (the `origin` reading, `:363-369` and `:7339+`) and `tests/test_shape_doctor.py` (`:9122+`), the two files this branch changes, so ruling 27 asks for this merge before it lands. The other three touch neither file.

No conflict: this branch's hunks are in `members_verdict` (`shape-doctor.py:6975-6992` and `:7163-7183`) and after `test_a_sibling_with_this_members_id_but_another_origin_is_not_counted` in the tests, and #591's are far from both. Nothing was resolved by hand.

…ll.sh sentences and #606's three sentences both stay in README and the handbook, so the page's seven § Starting markers read the merged section's hash (#606)

Merges main 396c0ff (#570, #598 and #624 since this branch's base, fbbbc8d).
Only #598 touches README.md and docs/handbook.html; #570 and #624 change code
and tests, taken as main has them.

README.md merged without a conflict. #598 rewrote its step-3 paragraph in
README § Starting a project in a new organisation, and #606 adds a sentence to
the part-way box in the same section, so that section's hash is neither
branch's (#606: 46538e8e, #598: d1666fa6) but a third one, 51702a2b.

docs/handbook.html conflicted in seven hunks, all of them the one marker line
of the seven page parts that read that section (masthead, start, partway, ci,
legs, doublepin, park). The text around the markers merged without a conflict,
so both sides' sentences are kept: #598's pipx-or-uv and readiness words in the
masthead, start and conventions, and #606's partway and adopt mirror sentences.
Each of the seven markers now names 51702a2b8c5451e2d027943074a836be0ce009e4,
the merged README section's fingerprint, computed with the hygiene test's own
readme_segments and readme_fingerprint. The § Adopting marker, ca4b6731, stays:
#598 does not touch that section.

README is 1456 lines against a cap of 1422 + 5 (550.txt) + 22 (564.txt) + 7
(606.txt) = 1456. #598 added no cap file, so the cap is unchanged by the merge.

…ix/585-git-bash-windows: README's step 3 keeps #598's pipx-or-uv paragraph and this branch's "in Git Bash it can take none" inside its 1449-line cap, the handbook's consent rule keeps both, and the seven markers move to the merged README (#585)

Main moved from 77bb5f0 to 396c0ff: 55faad2 (#591), fbbbc8d (#572),
7fdec0a (#624), 3fb21d9 (#598, lane 3's #595) and 396c0ff (#570). Only
#598 touches this branch's files: README step 3's install.sh paragraph, the
handbook's masthead and `start`, install.sh and tests/test_install_sh.py, and
it adds tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py. Two files conflicted.

README.md, one region: step 3's install.sh paragraph. #598 rewrote it for
uv and the closing readinesses; this branch had added "in Git Bash it can
take none" after "each behind a typed `yes` at your terminal". Side by side
that is nine lines where both have eight, and README is at its cap (1422 + 5
for 550.txt + 22 for 564.txt = 1449). The cap is not raised. Two rewordings
fit it, and no fact is dropped:
- "`install.sh` is attached to every release and installs the newest, with
  no `gh` and no login." became "`install.sh`, attached to every release,
  installs the newest with no `gh` and no login."
- #598's "`install.sh` never runs `sudo`;" became "It never runs `sudo`
  itself;". "It" is install.sh, the subject of the sentence before it, and
  "itself" is #564's own word for the contrast with the preflight.
#598's "It installs `git-filter-repo` with `pipx`, or `uv`, where it can, or
prints the command, runs `openRepoShape --preflight`, and says last if the
machine is ready to adopt or only to scaffold" is word for word, and so is
this branch's "; in Git Bash it can take none". The eight lines rewrap at
80 characters at most, as 78 README lines already are.

The Git Bash clause is still true after #598. Under `curl ... | bash`,
install.sh's `[ -t 0 ] || exec </dev/null` (install.sh:342, which #598 does
not touch) leaves the preflight no terminal on stdin. Under Git Bash
setup-project.py runs on native Windows Python, where `open_terminal()`
returns None (`os.name == "nt"`), so `can_ask()` is False, and `offer()`
takes no `yes`. #598 changes what install.sh does before and after the
preflight, not how the preflight reads an answer.

docs/handbook.html, eight regions:
- The consent rules' install.sh item keeps #598's text, "installs
  `git-filter-repo` with `pipx` or `uv` where one is there, and itself never
  runs `sudo` or installs either of them", and then this branch's clause, word
  for word: "; in Git Bash it can take no `yes`, so it installs nothing."
- The seven markers for README.md section "Starting a project in a new
  organisation" (this branch's 278a1947 against #598's d1666fa6) each record
  badbb6b273215042ba0e8ae167fd760dc25430ee, the merged section's hash from
  tests/test_repo_hygiene.py's own readme_segments and readme_fingerprint.
  All 23 markers match the merged README.
The masthead merged as text: this branch's "macOS, Linux, WSL2, Git Bash"
heading and PowerShell line, beside #598's "where `pipx` or `uv` can install
it ... and whether the machine is ready to adopt or only to scaffold".
The `start` step-3 paragraph is #598's; it is `data-platform="linux mac
wsl"`, as before.

tests/test_install_sh.py merged as text. #598's hunks (`no_pipx` and
`no_pipx_but_apt`'s printed commands, the docstring, and the line before the
printed command, which now starts "there is neither pipx nor uv") sit beside
this branch's `bash_path` in `present_on_path` and in the preflight line of
the same test. tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py comes in unchanged. It
builds on `Net`, whose `fake` this branch writes as LF bytes, and it is not
added to the tests-git-bash job.

Against main this merge differs only in this branch's six files:
.github/workflows/tests.yml, README.md, docs/handbook.html,
tests/conftest.py, tests/test_install_sh.py and
tests/test_openreposhape_command.py (436+, 147-). `git merge-tree
--write-tree HEAD origin/main` gives this commit's own tree.
tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, tests/test_readme_sections.py and
tests/test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py: 144 passed on the merged tree.

…es in Git for Windows' own bash, so README and the handbook say Git Bash runs the one-line install, tested in CI but for a typed yes, which it cannot take there (#585) (#596)

**Fix round 7: main after #598 (3fb21d9) (head 52524fe).** Lane 3's #598 (#595) landed on main as 3fb21d9. It rewrote README step 3's `install.sh` paragraph and the handbook's masthead and `start` for `uv`, and for the two readinesses install.sh now ends with. It also changed `install.sh` and `tests/test_install_sh.py`, and added `tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py`. One merge commit, **52524fe3**, merges main 396c0ff: 55faad2 (#591), fbbbc8d (#572), 7fdec0a (#624), 3fb21d9 (#598) and 396c0ff (#570). No other change.
- **Conflicts.** README.md had 1 region (step 3's `install.sh` paragraph). docs/handbook.html had 8: the consent rules' `install.sh` item and the seven § Starting markers. `tests/test_install_sh.py` merged as text, and so did the handbook's masthead and `start`.
- **The head holds all of main.** `git merge-tree --write-tree 52524fe origin/main` gives 52524fe's own tree, 6d8ffea. `git diff --stat origin/main 52524fe` names only this PR's six files (436+, 147-).

**The README and handbook resolution with #598 (52524fe).**
- **README, before.** This PR (4c3b72a) had added "; in Git Bash it can take none" after step 3's "each behind a typed `yes` at your terminal". #598 rewrote the same paragraph: "It installs `git-filter-repo` with `pipx`, or `uv`, where it can, or prints the command, runs `openRepoShape --preflight`, and says last if the machine is ready to adopt or only to scaffold. `install.sh` never runs `sudo`; the preflight offers what is missing, each behind a typed `yes` at your terminal."
- **Fitting the cap.** Keeping both made nine lines where #598 has eight, and README was at its cap. The cap was not raised. Two rewordings fit it, and no fact is dropped:
  - "`install.sh` is attached to every release and installs the newest, with no `gh` and no login." became "`install.sh`, attached to every release, installs the newest with no `gh` and no login."
  - #598's "`install.sh` never runs `sudo`;" became "It never runs `sudo` itself;". "It" is install.sh, the subject of the sentence before it, and "itself" is #564's own word for the contrast with the preflight.
- **README, after** (8 lines, at most 80 characters, as 78 README lines on main already are):
  ```
  `install.sh`, attached to every release, installs the newest with no `gh` and no
  login. Its command is PINNED to the release tag, recorded in `openRepoShape.ref`
  beside it: `setup.sh` and the standard are fetched at that tag, not at main. It
  installs `git-filter-repo` with `pipx`, or `uv`, where it can, or prints the
  command, runs `openRepoShape --preflight`, and says last if the machine is ready
  to adopt or only to scaffold. It never runs `sudo` itself; the preflight offers
  what is missing, each behind a typed `yes` at your terminal; in Git Bash it can
  take none. `| bash -s -- v1.0.1` names a release; the same line again upgrades.
  ```
  #598's `pipx`/`uv` sentence and this PR's clause are word for word. README is **1449** lines, its cap (1422 + 5 for `550.txt` + 22 for `564.txt`).
- **The Git Bash clause is still true after #598.** Under `curl … | bash`, `[ -t 0 ] || exec </dev/null` (install.sh:342; #598 moved it down from :277 and left its text alone) leaves the preflight no terminal on stdin. In Git Bash, setup-project.py runs on native Windows Python, where `open_terminal()` returns None (`os.name == "nt"`, setup-project.py:1372). So `can_ask()` is False, and `offer()` takes no `yes`. #598 changes what install.sh does before and after the preflight, not how the preflight reads an answer.
- **Handbook, consent rules.** The `install.sh` item keeps #598's text, "installs `git-filter-repo` with `pipx` or `uv` where one is there, and itself never runs `sudo` or installs either of them", and then this PR's clause, word for word: "; in Git Bash it can take no `yes`, so it installs nothing."
- **Handbook, masthead and `start`.** They merged as text: this PR's "macOS, Linux, WSL2, Git Bash" heading and PowerShell line, beside #598's "where `pipx` or `uv` can install it … and whether the machine is ready to adopt or only to scaffold". The `start` step-3 paragraph is #598's. It is `data-platform="linux mac wsl"`, as before, so it carries no Git Bash clause.
- **The seven § "Starting a project in a new organisation" markers.** This PR's 278a1947 conflicted with #598's d1666fa6. All seven now record `badbb6b273215042ba0e8ae167fd760dc25430ee`, computed with `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`'s own `readme_segments` and `readme_fingerprint`. That driver reproduces both parents' hashes (main d1666fa6, 4c3b72a 278a1947). All 23 markers match the merged README.
- **`tests/test_install_sh.py`.** #598's hunks are `no_pipx` and `no_pipx_but_apt`'s printed commands, the test's docstring, and the line before the printed command, which now starts "there is neither pipx nor uv". They sit beside this PR's `bash_path` in `present_on_path` and in the same test's preflight line. Both sides' tests keep their meaning.

**Fix round 6: retarget to main after #587 (22eacee) (head 4c3b72a).** #587 squash-landed on main as 22eacee at 2026-10-15T20:27:52Z, and GitHub retargeted this PR to `main`. 22eacee's tree, 831e71d, is `git merge-tree --write-tree 2b6dbb7 3d8fa05`: main holds exactly #587's final head 3d8fa05. So this round adds two merge commits and no other change:
- **3080ac0d** merges #587's final head, 3d8fa05. It conflicted only in README.md and docs/handbook.html, with lane 4's #588 (709eec1), which 3d8fa05 had merged from main. The resolution keeps both sides' text (below).
- **4c3b72ae** merges main, 77bb5f0: 22eacee, plus 2b6dbb7 (#584), which the squash carried but 3d8fa05 lacked, and #615's 77bb5f0, which landed after it. Four files conflicted, because the squash is not an ancestor of 3d8fa05 (merge base 62ef256). For each of them, main's copy is the same blob as 3d8fa05's, and 77bb5f0 does not touch it. Each therefore takes this branch's copy, which is 3d8fa05's copy plus this PR's change:

  | File | `3d8fa05e:` = `origin/main:` (77bb5f0) = `22eaceed:` |
  |---|---|
  | README.md | d164131 |
  | docs/handbook.html | 59ec34d |
  | tests/test_install_sh.py (add/add) | 34c7de5 |
  | tests/test_openreposhape_command.py | 5e49547 |

  No file was merged by hand. `git merge-tree --write-tree 4c3b72a origin/main` gives 4c3b72a's own tree, 97843ec, so the head holds all of main. `git diff --stat origin/main 4c3b72a` names only this PR's six files: `.github/workflows/tests.yml`, README.md, docs/handbook.html, `tests/conftest.py` and the two suites (430+, 141-).

**The README and handbook resolution with #588 (3080ac0).** #588 ends README's "Windows, natively" and the handbook's Windows panel with one sentence: "Printed commands are quoted for a POSIX shell, so paste them into Git Bash. Only `shape-doctor.py`'s lines, `setup-project.py`'s family lines and `family.py`'s `NEXT`, `switch -c`, `add` and `git rm -r --cached` lines are quoted for PowerShell, on Windows." That sentence now follows this PR's Git Bash sentences, word for word. `tests/test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py` holds the handbook to README's words, and it passes.
- **README**, before (3d8fa05): "That two-liner IS the Windows way in; the `openRepoShape` command in step 3 below is a macOS, Linux and WSL2 convenience with no Windows twin, because on Windows there is nothing to install. Printed commands are quoted …"
- **README**, after: "That two-liner IS the Windows way in from PowerShell, which has no twin of step 3's `openRepoShape` command. Git Bash runs that command and step 3's one line, tested in CI but for a typed `yes`, which its preflight cannot take there. Printed commands are quoted …"
- **Fitting the cap.** The two texts side by side came to seven lines where #588 had six, and README was at its cap. So "no twin of the `openRepoShape` command in step 3 below" became "no twin of step 3's `openRepoShape` command". Step 3 is "Install the `openRepoShape` command", so the meaning is the same. The six lines rewrap, and README stays at **1449** lines, its cap (1422 + 5 for `550.txt` + 22 for `564.txt`). No raise.
- **#588's other README hunk**, the tighter `python setup-project.py` and "Two commands rather than one pipe" paragraphs, merged as text.
- **Handbook Windows panel.** It keeps this PR's "There is no `openRepoShape` command to install in PowerShell … so none of its offers can be accepted there." and then #588's sentence, unchanged.
- **The seven § "Starting a project in a new organisation" markers** (this PR's 34723d9a against #588's d77a1e59) now record `278a19479524fe8aae292daaca84492902b140ed`, the merged section's hash. It was computed with `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`'s own `readme_segments` and `readme_fingerprint`, and all 23 handbook markers match the merged README.
- **Consistency.** Every Windows, Git Bash, PowerShell and WSL2 sentence was read again in the merged text. #588's sentence is true in Git Bash too: the named tools run under native Windows Python there, where `os.name` is `nt`, so their lines are quoted for PowerShell, "on Windows", as it says. See checklist candidate 7.

**Fix round 5 (head fe58d66).** One comments-only commit to `tests.yml`, for the re-review's N1 and N3. The header says the FULL suite runs on Linux only, so read alone it stays true beside the exception. The job's comment gives the measured "about a minute and a half (86 s on the first run, 50 s of it pytest)" where it said about three minutes.

**Fix round 4 (head 5f001de).** Brett Heap merged #597 ("ci: run the test suite on Linux only") at 2026-10-15T16:54:43Z, which removed the Windows job these suites ran in. His word at 2026-10-15T18:20:35Z: "Option 1: keep a small Git Bash job for #596". That round added two commits:
- **f6552862** merged lane 3's `l3-564-carry-to-main` b23b245 (#587's branch, this PR's base until fix round 6), which held main 654c476 and so #597. `tests.yml` became that branch's, byte for byte: the guard step and the macOS comment edit went with the two jobs #597 removed. The handbook keeps #597's macOS panel beside this PR's Git Bash text, and its seven markers were moved.
- **5f001de1** adds the `tests-git-bash` job, and fixes the macOS sentence that #597 made say "CI runs on Linux only".

v1.0.1's one-line install (#564) is meant to work in Git Bash on Windows, but nothing ran it there: `tests/test_openreposhape_command.py` and `tests/test_install_sh.py` wore `WINDOWS_SKIP`. They now run in the `tests-git-bash` job, under Git Bash.

**Which bash.** `BASH` in `tests/conftest.py` is Git for Windows' `usr\bin\bash.exe`, found from `git --exec-path`, never from PATH. Probe 1 on `windows-latest` showed why:
- A bare `bash` through `subprocess` is System32's WSL launcher. It prints "Windows Subsystem for Linux has no installed distributions." in UTF-16. CreateProcess searches System32 before PATH.
- `shutil.which("bash")` finds `Git\bin\bash.EXE`. That launcher puts Git's `mingw64\bin` and `usr\bin` first on PATH, so Git's real `curl` came before the suite's fake one. The old install.sh suite, run that way, reached github.com and printed the real newest release: `release: v1.0.1, the newest release of opensoft/openRepoShape (https://github.com/opensoft/openRepoShape/releases/latest)`.

A `git_bash_session` fixture puts Git's `mingw64\bin` (or `clangarm64\bin` on ARM64), `usr\bin` and `MSYSTEM` where Git Bash puts them, behind any fake a test puts first. `BASH_SKIP` replaces `WINDOWS_SKIP` in these two files only.

**What the tests now do on Windows.**
- **Paths.** Every path handed to bash, or expected in what it prints, is spelled the way Git Bash spells it (`/d/a/...`). The conversion uses Git's own `cygpath` (`bash_path`, `native_path`). Git Bash converts `HOME`, `TMPDIR` and `PATH` itself.
- **Line endings.** Every script a test writes for bash is written as LF bytes. The fake's redirect headers and its `gh` tag are written as bytes: Python on Windows prints `\r\n`, and `$(...)` keeps the `\r`.
- **The executable bit.** Git Bash's drives are mounted `noacl`, so `chmod 755` changes nothing. A file that starts with `#!` runs anyway. `--install`'s output is checked by mode 755 on POSIX, and by bash's own `test -x` on Windows.
- **A test's own PATH.** On Windows it holds `#!/bin/sh` wrappers. A symlink to a Git Bash program cannot load its DLL: with symlinks, `mktemp` failed and install.sh refused `could not make a temporary directory`.
- **An argument holding a newline** reaches Git Bash through the environment. On the Windows command line it was split in two: `v1\nforged` arrived as "two versions given". In Git Bash, bash hands bash the argument whole, so the test now does the same.
- **`ln -s`.** A new test makes a link with Git Bash's own `ln -s`, after dropping any `$MSYS` the caller set. By default that is a copy, which has no `openRepoShape.ref` beside it and so follows main. With `MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict` it is a real link, which reads the record.
- **Two anchors (fix round 2).**
  - The fetched-setup.sh test now also asserts that the parent of the stub's directory exists. Its "the directory is gone" line therefore cannot pass on a path Python cannot open. Both asserts read one `ran_dir = native_path(ran_in)` (fix round 3), so the existence check cannot be reverted to `Path(ran_in)` alone.
  - The `gh` shim test already could not pass with the shim unreachable: it asserts that the shim's own log holds exactly `auth status`, and only the shim writes that log. Probe 4 reverted its `os.pathsep` and it still passed: the shim stayed reachable either way, most likely through MSYS's conversion of PATH, which the log does not show.

**The workflow (fix round 4).**
- **The header** keeps #597's text and adds one sentence: "One exception, on Brett Heap's word at 2026-10-15T18:20:35Z, "Option 1: keep a small Git Bash job for #596": the `tests-git-bash` job below runs the launcher's and the installer's suites, and nothing else, on Windows under Git Bash."
- **`tests-git-bash`**: `runs-on: windows-latest`, `timeout-minutes: 15`, and no `if:`, so it runs on every trigger the workflow has: a push to main, a pull request, a manual run. Its steps:
  1. checkout and setup-python, at the ubuntu job's two commits, with `fetch-depth: 0`;
  2. `python -m pip install --disable-pip-version-check pytest==8.3.4`;
  3. the git identity, appended to `GITHUB_ENV` in PowerShell, as the old Windows job did;
  4. "Git Bash is the bash the launcher and installer suites run": fails the job when conftest finds no Git Bash, and prints the bash the suites will run;
  5. `python -m pytest -q -rA tests/test_openreposhape_command.py tests/test_install_sh.py --basetemp=${{ runner.temp }}\t`.
- **Its env** is the old Windows job's: `PYTHONUTF8=1`, `core.autocrlf=false` and `core.longpaths=true` through `GIT_CONFIG_COUNT`.
- **Its comment** says why it exists (#585, the one-line install on Windows), why it runs two suites only (#597), why its bash is Git's `usr\bin\bash.exe` (pointing to conftest), and why it runs on a push to main.

**The docs.**
- **README § "Windows, natively" and the handbook's Windows panel** say: PowerShell has no twin of the command; Git Bash runs it and the one-line install, tested in CI but for a typed `yes`, which the preflight the one-line install ends with cannot take there. #588's sentence about POSIX-quoted printed commands follows (fix round 6).
  - Why: install.sh:342 (:277 before #598) runs `exec </dev/null` under `curl … | bash`, and setup-project.py's `open_terminal()` has no Windows path.
  - Nothing installs without a typed `yes`, so consent holds.
  - Fix round 4: this sentence was left with nothing behind it once #597 removed the Windows job. `tests-git-bash` makes it true again, so its text is unchanged.
- **README's macOS sentence and the handbook's macOS panel (fix round 4).** #597 made them say "though CI runs on Linux only and no run of it checks them against bash 3.2". With this job that is false. They now say "though no CI run, on Linux or in Git Bash on Windows, checks them against bash 3.2". README rewraps inside the same four lines.
- **Step 3's sentence about the preflight's offers** (README) and **the consent rules** (handbook) add that in Git Bash it can take no `yes`. Since fix round 7, both clauses follow #598's `pipx`-or-`uv` text, and README's paragraph is reworded to fit (above).
  - The handbook's own step-3 install paragraph is `data-platform="linux mac wsl"`, so it is already scoped away from Windows, and is left.
- **The WSL2 sentence** says WSL2 "runs every bash entry point in Linux itself", instead of being "still how you run" them.
- **The handbook's masthead** lists Git Bash beside macOS, Linux and WSL2.
- **README keeps its line count**: 1449, the cap (1422 + 5 for `550.txt` + 22 for `564.txt`).
- **The seven handbook markers** for README.md § "Starting a project in a new organisation" record its new hash, `badbb6b273215042ba0e8ae167fd760dc25430ee` (fix round 7, after #598). Fix round 4's merge set them to `a88ac2d0…`, 5f001de moved them to `34723d9a…` for the macOS sentence, and fix round 6 to `278a1947…` after #588. Every hash was computed with `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`'s own `readme_segments` and `readme_fingerprint`.

- **A separate small job, on Brett Heap's word.** At 2026-10-15T18:20:35Z he chose "Option 1: keep a small Git Bash job for #596". The option read: "A small Windows job for just these two suites. The probe runs took 2-3 minutes end to end, so it finishes well inside the 34-36 minute Linux job and adds no wall-clock time. The README claim stays true. It is an exception to #597's decision, so it needs your word." So the job runs these two suites and nothing else. It is not a matrix entry on the ubuntu job, whose actionlint download is a linux-amd64 binary.
- **Every trigger, a push to main included.** A squash lands a tree no pull-request run tested (#122), and these two suites are the only run of the one-line install on Windows. At about a minute and a half beside the ubuntu job (86 s on its first run), it adds no wall-clock time.
- **What the job keeps from the old Windows job, and why.**
  - `PYTHONUTF8=1`: the suites decode bash's output with `text=True`, which uses the locale's code page (cp1252) outside UTF-8 mode, and the launcher's `--help` prints em dashes (openRepoShape:108, :119-120).
  - `core.autocrlf=false` and `core.longpaths=true`: every Windows run of these suites had both, #585's four probes included, and no run without them exists.
  - `fetch-depth: 0`: `test_a_ref_the_doctor_would_check_out_is_validated` sets `OPENREPOSHAPE_REPO` to this checkout, so the launcher clones it, and every Windows run of it cloned a full one.
  - `--basetemp=${{ runner.temp }}\t`: the old job's short temp root, for MAX_PATH.
- **What it leaves out.**
  - **git-filter-repo.** These suites never reach a real one. The install suite's PATH holds only its own fakes, `git-filter-repo` and `pipx` among them. The launcher's machine report gets a fake `git-filter-repo` on the PATH `machine_path` builds. On Linux, with every PATH directory that held a `git-filter-repo` removed (`filter-repo=none` in the run log), the two suites gave **113 passed**. `test_it_installs_the_git_filter_repo_ci_runs` still finds the ubuntu job's pin.
  - **actionlint.** The ubuntu job lints this file.
- **`usr\bin\bash.exe`, not `bin\bash.exe`, and not PATH.** The probe-1 lines quoted above.
- **`git_bash_session` is needed, though the runner's own PATH hides it.**
  - The runner's PATH already holds Git's `bin`, `usr\bin` and `mingw64\bin`, with `bin` before System32 (probe-1 PATH dump). So reverting the fixture changes nothing there (probe 2: 113 passed).
  - A stock Git for Windows install puts only `Git\cmd` on PATH. Probe 3 ran the two files on exactly that PATH, where `which mktemp` is `None` and `which bash` is `C:\Windows\system32\bash.EXE`:
    - with the fixture: **113 passed**;
    - with it reverted: **59 failed, 15 passed, 39 errors**, for example `bash: line 199: mktemp: command not found` and `this machine has no mktemp, which the install needs`.
- **`bash -s` runs still take their script through a text-mode pipe.** That pipe hands bash CRLF on Windows, but Git Bash's bash drops a carriage return before a newline: a CRLF script piped to it printed `crlf-ok` and exited 0 (probe 1). Sending bytes instead changed no result (mutation `text-stdin`, 113 passed), so that change was dropped.
- **Python can make symlinks on the runner** (`os.symlink: ok`), so the three existing symlink tests run there unchanged.
- **The macOS sentence names Git Bash without a line.** "No CI run, on Linux or in Git Bash on Windows, checks them against bash 3.2" is true with this job, and fits README's four lines. A clause naming the two suites would have needed a fifth line and a cap raise.
- **Not claimed: that setup's own `yes` is asked in Git Bash.** Typed at a Git Bash prompt, `openRepoShape <Project>` reads its `yes` through native Windows Python. Whether that Python sees a console depends on Git Bash's pseudo-console support, and nobody has confirmed it on a Windows machine.

- **Linux, on the head 52524fe** (fix round 7, `dirty=0`):
  - the two suites: **113 passed** in 41.23s;
  - `tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py` (#598's, unchanged): **18 passed** in 7.32s;
  - `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`, `tests/test_readme_sections.py`, `tests/test_cli_reference.py`, `tests/test_setup_by_hand_commands.py` and `tests/test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py`: **171 passed** in 25.43s.
  - `git grep -l 'install.sh' tests/` finds `conftest.py`, `readme-cap.d/564.txt`, `test_install_sh.py`, `test_install_sh_filter_repo.py` and `test_repo_hygiene.py`. Every test file among them was in these runs. No skips.
  - The merge, before its commit: `test_repo_hygiene.py`, `test_readme_sections.py` and `test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py`, 144 passed.
- **actionlint 1.7.12 on 52524fe**, on `tests.yml` and the two template workflows: exit 0, with shellcheck on PATH. `tests.yml` is the same blob as at 4c3b72a (5fc46de); #598 does not touch it.
- **Linux, on the head 4c3b72a** (fix round 6, `dirty=0`):
  - the two suites: **113 passed** in 28.57s;
  - `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`, `tests/test_readme_sections.py`, `tests/test_cli_reference.py`, `tests/test_setup_by_hand_commands.py` and `tests/test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py`: **171 passed** in 17.09s.
  - Those cover every `tests/test_install_sh*.py` (there is one) and every test file `git grep -l 'install.sh' tests/` finds (`test_install_sh.py`, `test_repo_hygiene.py`; the other two hits are `conftest.py` and `readme-cap.d/564.txt`).
  - 3080ac0's merge, before its commit: `test_repo_hygiene.py`, `test_readme_sections.py` and `test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py`, 144 passed.
- **actionlint 1.7.12 on 4c3b72a**, on `tests.yml` and the two template workflows: exit 0, with shellcheck on PATH. The workflow keeps main's #593 `concurrency` block byte for byte (this PR's two `tests.yml` hunks are the header and the new job), the header's "The FULL suite runs on LINUX ONLY" with the exception sentence, and `tests-git-bash`.
- **Linux, on the head 5f001de** (`dirty=0`): the two suites, `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`, `tests/test_readme_sections.py`, `tests/test_cli_reference.py` and `tests/test_setup_by_hand_commands.py`: **281 passed** in 61.24s.
- **Linux, fix round 4, before its commit:**
  - the two suites: 113 passed;
  - the two suites with no `git-filter-repo` on PATH: **113 passed**;
  - the four docs and hygiene files: 168 passed;
  - the merge alone, before its commit: `test_repo_hygiene.py` and `test_readme_sections.py`, 141 passed.
- **actionlint 1.7.12**, fetched and checksum-checked as the ubuntu job does, on `tests.yml` and the two template workflows: exit 0, with shellcheck on PATH.
- **The YAML parse.** Triggers: `push` to `main`, `pull_request`, `workflow_dispatch`. Jobs: `tests` (ubuntu-latest) and `tests-git-bash` (windows-latest, `timeout-minutes: 15`). Neither has an `if:`, so both run on every trigger.
- **Linux, earlier rounds:** on 01e8c2c, the same five files without `test_setup_by_hand_commands.py`, 276 passed. Lane 5's re-review got the same 276 there. On 649b089, with `tests/test_setup_by_hand_commands.py`, `tests/test_agents_md_codes.py` and `tests/test_gh_guard.py` as well, 334 passed.
- **Windows, `windows-latest`, through probe branches that ran only these suites:**
  - Probe 1 (run 38752845751): 109 passed, 2 failed, 0 skipped. The two failures were the newline arguments, fixed since.
  - Probe 2 (run 38754067543, tree ebba347): **113 passed, 0 skipped**, in 68.83s.
  - Probe 3 (run 38757083883, on 649b089): **113 passed** in 50.97s. On a stock Git for Windows PATH (only `Git\cmd`): 113 passed.
  - Probe 4 (`l5-585-probe-4`, on 01e8c2c): **113 passed** in 77.92s (run 38769166462).
- **The same two files as they were at 5191f0e, with only `WINDOWS_SKIP` lifted** (probe 1): 88 failed, 23 passed. Two causes: the WSL launcher, and the real network through `Git\bin\bash.EXE`.
- **Windows on 5f001de, the PR's own run of `tests-git-bash`:** **113 passed** in 50.28s, with the whole job taking 1 min 26 s (18:37:00Z to 18:38:26Z, check run 116601758252).
  - The guard step printed `C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\bash.exe`.
  - Its steps and env are probe 4's, less the git-filter-repo install, and with `-q -rA` and a 15-minute job timeout.

Probe 2 ran these on **ebba347f**, the tree before the squash, which still had a `run_piped` helper; the `text-stdin` row is that helper. The squashed head 649b089 was then re-measured whole by probe 3 (113 passed), and fix round 2's head 01e8c2c by probe 4. Each row reverts one Windows hunk and runs the two files again.

| Hunk reverted | Result |
|---|---|
| `BASH` is the bare word `bash` | 108 failed |
| paths keep Windows' spelling | 25 failed |
| scripts written with `write_text` (CRLF) | 1 failed: `test_a_release_whose_command_records_no_ref_exits_one`, whose launcher's first line became `#!/usr/bin/env bash\r` and was refused as not the command |
| the fake prints its headers and tag in text mode | 22 failed |
| mode 755 checked on Windows too | 2 failed |
| symlinks on a test's own PATH | 28 failed |
| newline arguments on the command line | 2 failed |
| no `git_bash_session` | 113 passed on the runner's PATH; on a stock Git for Windows PATH (probe 3) 59 failed and 39 errors, against 113 passed with it |
| `bash -s` script sent as bytes (`run_piped`) | 113 passed either way; this hunk was dropped |

Fix round 2's anchors (probe 4, on 01e8c2c): 

| Run | Result |
|---|---|
| the fetched-setup.sh test, `native_path(ran_in)` reverted to `Path(ran_in)` in both asserts | exit 1: 1 failed. The new parent-directory anchor catches it. Since fix round 3 both asserts read one `ran_dir`, so this is the only way to revert it. |
| the `gh` shim test, its PATH joined with `:` instead of `os.pathsep` | exit 0: 1 passed. The shim stays reachable, so the hunk is not load-bearing on this runner. The log shows only that outcome; MSYS's conversion of PATH is the likely reason. The test is still not vacuous: it asserts that the shim's own log holds exactly `auth status`, and only the shim writes that log, so an unreachable shim would fail it. |
| both `ln -s` cases with `MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict` exported, head | exit 0: 2 passed |
| the same, with the `MSYS` drop reverted | exit 1: 1 failed (`ln-default` made a link), 1 passed |

#590 adds four cases to these two suites, written while they skipped on Windows:
- `test_a_command_that_is_a_symlink_is_refused_before_any_request[live|dangling]`;
- `test_install_refuses_a_target_that_is_a_symlink[live|dangling]`.

Each compares a path bash printed with `str(path)`. Each also compares `os.readlink`'s answer with the target, and on Windows that answer typically starts `\\?\` (Python's `os.readlink` documentation, since 3.8; the probe's failures stop at the first assert, so no log shows it). Linux passes on the merged tree (117 passed), but under Git Bash those four cases fail, and `tests-git-bash` runs them.

**Whichever of #596 and #590 lands second applies these hunks** to the merged tree. Probe 4 (run 38769166462) applied exactly these.

Both files already import `bash_path` once #596 is in. On Linux, the merge of 649b089 with d090f0c, with these hunks: **117 passed**. Fix round 7, on the merge of 52524fe with #590's head 1c8a708, with fix round 6's resolved `tests.yml` (both inputs unchanged since; the result is blob 266c62c): the hunks apply (`git apply --check` exit 0). The two suites (117 by collection), `tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py` (18), `tests/test_openreposhape_package.py` and `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py` give **270 passed** in 48.69s. Fix round 6: on the merge of 4c3b72a with #590's current head 1c8a708, with `tests.yml` resolved as below, the hunks apply (`git apply --check` exit 0) and the two suites give **117 passed**; with `tests/test_openreposhape_package.py` and `tests/test_repo_hygiene.py`, 252 passed. Probe 4 runs the merge of 01e8c2c with `l3-563-pypi-package` on Windows: the four cases without the hunks, then both suites with them. In run 38769166462, on Windows:
- **Without the hunks**: exit 1, `4 failed, 113 deselected`. These are exactly the four cases. The launcher pair failed on `REFUSED: D:\a\_temp\…\bin/openRepoShape is a symbol…`, which confirms rv585's inferred launcher failures; the install pair failed on `REFUSED: /d/a/_temp/…/.local/bin/openRepoShape …`.
- **With the hunks**: they apply (exit 0), and both suites give **117 passed** in 75.13s.

**`tests.yml` conflicts with #590 (fix round 6; unchanged in fix round 7, where #590's head is still 1c8a708 and this PR's `tests.yml` is the same blob).** #590 now targets `main` too: at fix round 6 its merge ref's first parent was main 77bb5f0. Its head 1c8a708 has merged #587's final head and main, so it holds #597, and it merges with main cleanly. Both PRs add to the same two places in `tests.yml`, so against 4c3b72a there are three regions:
- **The header.** Keep this PR's "The FULL suite runs on LINUX ONLY" and its exception sentence, then #590's four lines about the `package` job.
- **The end of the file, two regions.** git splits the two new jobs where they share the checkout and setup-python lines. Keep both jobs whole: `tests-git-bash`, then #590's `package`.
- **Checked.** I built that file: this PR's `tests.yml` with #590's header paragraph and its `package` job added. Against #590's file it differs only in this PR's two hunks, and against this PR's file only in #590's two. `yaml.safe_load` gives the jobs `['tests', 'tests-git-bash', 'package']`, and actionlint 1.7.12 exits 0 on it. #590's `package` comment now says "the other jobs" and "on Linux like the rest of the suite since #597", which stay true beside `tests-git-bash`. Fix round 4's advice to drop `tests-windows` and `tests-macos` and to reword "three jobs" no longer applies: #590 has done both.

The open pull requests are the 17 with a `refs/pull/<n>/merge` ref in `git ls-remote origin 'refs/pull/*'`: 583, 590, 594, 596, 599, 614, 617-623 and 625-628. Each head was merged with 52524fe and, separately, with main 396c0ff. The ones not in the table merge cleanly with this head and touch none of its six files: #583, #614, #617, #618, #619, #621, #622, #625, #626 and #628.

| Against | Result |
|---|---|
| origin/main 396c0ff (#591, #572, #624, #598 3fb21d9, #570) | **clean**. The merge gives this head's own tree, 6d8ffea: the head holds all of main. |
| #590 1c8a708 (`l3-563-pypi-package`) | **conflicts** in `.github/workflows/tests.yml`, 3 regions: the header and the end of the jobs. #590 against main alone is clean, so this is the two PRs' own overlap. It also touches `tests/test_install_sh.py` and `tests/test_openreposhape_command.py`, which merge as text. See the #590 section above for the resolution, the four test cases and fix round 7's 270 passed. |
| #599 b0182e2 (lane 3, stacked on #590's old head d090f0c) | **conflicts** in `.github/workflows/tests.yml`, 2 regions. #599 also conflicts with main alone, in six files (`tests.yml`, README.md, the handbook, `install.sh`, `openRepoShape`, `tests/test_install_sh.py`). It is #597's conflict, through #599's stale base, not this job's. |
| #627 fc0656b (`fix/606-readme-followups`, #606; new since fix round 6) | **conflicts** in docs/handbook.html only: 7 regions, each one § Starting marker line (this PR's badbb6b2 against #627's 51702a2b). Its README hunks (the second-run refusal in § Starting, and `CONTRACTS_DIR` and the `single-repository.yaml` question in § Adopting) merge as text with this PR's. #627 against main alone is clean. **Whoever lands second** sets the seven markers to the merged README's hash. On this head plus fc0656b that is `fe0d932b031e4a08fc885f93d6cd978df0d5a25c`. README is then 1456 lines: 1449 plus #627's own `readme-cap.d/606.txt` (+7). |
| #594 be808a7, #623 1e30fa7 | **clean**. Both touch `tests/conftest.py`, which merges as text. |
| #620 4c049a8 | **conflicts** in `adopt-project.py`, and so does #620 against main alone: its own conflict with main, not an overlap with this PR. |

#598 landed as 3fb21d9 and is in the main row; fix round 7 is that merge. Every lane-5 PR and every other PR that has landed is in the main row.

- **`tests/test_setup_sh.py`, and `test_repo_hygiene.py`'s `bash -n` test, still skip on Windows,** and since #597 nothing runs them on Windows at all. #585 names the launcher's and the installer's suites, and Brett Heap's word keeps a job for those two only. The same `BASH` would serve both.
- **Any typed `yes`.** CI has no terminal.
- **`tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py` in `tests-git-bash` (fix round 7).** #598's file is not added to the job; that is the coordinator's call. See checklist candidate 8.
- **`docs/release-notes/v1.0.0.md` and `docs/release-notes/v1.0.1.md`** are records of those releases, and #597 left them unedited too. v1.0.1's notes say #585 runs the suites under Git Bash; that stays true. The v1.1.0 text is below.
- **A required check.** This PR does not make `tests-git-bash` a required status check. That is a ruleset setting, and Brett Heap's call.

No v1.1.0 notes file exists on main yet, so this PR writes none. Proposed text, a section of its own:

> **Git Bash on Windows (#585).** Git Bash, the bash that Git for Windows installs, runs the one-line install and the `openRepoShape` command. CI's `tests-git-bash` job runs their suites under Git for Windows' own bash, with the PATH Git Bash makes, and fails if it cannot find that bash. That job is an exception to #597's Linux-only CI, made on Brett Heap's word. In PowerShell the way in is unchanged: `py setup-project.py`. Two things differ from macOS and Linux. `ln -s` in Git Bash makes a COPY unless `MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict` is set; a copy has no `openRepoShape.ref` beside it, so it follows main, and `openRepoShape --version` says so. Link it with that setting (Windows lets a non-administrator make a symlink only in Developer Mode), or put `~/.local/bin` on `PATH` instead. And `chmod` changes nothing on Git Bash's drives; a file that starts with `#!` runs as a command anyway. Not tested there: `setup.sh` run on its own (its suite still skips on Windows), and any typed `yes`, for which CI has no terminal. In Git Bash the preflight that the one-line install ends with cannot take a `yes` at all, so it installs nothing for you.

1. **The machine report's `python3` line on Windows.** `--install`'s `machine:` block probes only `python3`. Where Python came from python.org, Git Bash has `python` and no `python3`, or only the Microsoft Store stub. The block then says `python3 MISSING`, or "present" for a stub, while `--preflight` passes with `python`.
2. **A drive-letter `$OPENREPOSHAPE_REPO`.** `shape_clone_url` treats `C:/src/openRepoShape` as an owner/name and builds `https://github.com/C:/src/openRepoShape.git` from it. Git Bash and git itself both accept the drive-letter spelling.
3. **A Windows-spelled `$OPENREPOSHAPE_BIN_DIR`.** `--install` then prints `export PATH="D:\...:$PATH"`, which bash cannot use: the drive's colon splits it.
4. **A stale docstring.** `test_a_ref_the_doctor_would_check_out_is_validated` says the refusal arrives before any clone. `shape_checkout` clones first, then checks the ref.
5. **On Windows, the preflight a piped install ends with cannot take a typed `yes`.**
   - Under `curl … | bash`, install.sh:342 (:277 before #598) hands its children /dev/null for stdin.
   - setup-project.py's `open_terminal()` returns None when `os.name == "nt"`, so it has no Windows path to the person's terminal. Opening `CONIN$`, where POSIX opens `/dev/tty`, might be the analogue.
   - Found by rv585; it is the root of this PR's README wording.
6. **The handbook's step 3 has no Git Bash path.** Its install block and paragraph are `data-platform="linux mac wsl"` (docs/handbook.html:775-784 on 01e8c2c), so a reader on the Windows tab never sees the one-line install that the Windows panel says Git Bash runs. Adding it to the Windows tab is a docs decision.
7. **In Git Bash, the host-quoted lines are still quoted for PowerShell.** `openRepoShape --doctor`, a family `setup-project.py` run and `family.py`, started from Git Bash, run under native Windows Python, where `os.name` is `nt`. So `quote_arg`, `shell_quoted`, `shell_line` and `shell_word` (for example setup-project.py:2331, `if os.name == "nt" and not posix`) quote for PowerShell, even though the person is at a bash prompt. #588's sentence stays true ("on Windows"). But someone who follows "Git Bash runs that command" and pastes such a line back into Git Bash gets the failure that `tests/test_readme_windows_quoting_sentence.py`'s docstring names: `git -C C:\work\Orbit` reads as `C:workOrbit`. Choosing `sh`'s dialect under Git Bash (for example on `MSYSTEM`) would be a #532 decision.
8. **#598's installer cases do not run under Git Bash.** `tests-git-bash` runs `tests/test_install_sh.py`, and since fix round 7 that suite reaches #598's code in two ways: every run now prints `adoption:` and `done:`, and `no_pipx` expects uv's printed command. But the uv install, the readinesses' wording and the pasted next steps are tested in `tests/test_install_sh_filter_repo.py` only, on Linux. README says Git Bash runs step 3's one line, "tested in CI".
   - **What the file uses.** It inherits `test_install_sh.pytestmark` (`BASH_SKIP` and `git_bash_session`), and drives every run through `Net`: `fake` (LF bytes through `write_script`), `run` (`BASH`, `bash_path(INSTALLER)`), `serve`, `installed` and `calls`. Its own `uv` fake writes LF bytes, like `Net.fake`, and names the interpreter as `shlex.quote(sys.executable)`, as `Net.fake` does in the job today. No assert compares a path bash printed with a Python path; each checks a line's start or end.
   - **Under Git Bash it would likely pass.** Its programs see `PATH=net.path` alone, so the runner's own pipx or uv cannot leak in. The launcher's `--install` probes `python3` with `command -v` and never runs it, so the logging `python3`/`python` fakes stay silent. Its `paste()` sends a script through a text-mode pipe, as `Net.run(piped=True)` already does in the job.
   - **Not run on Windows.** On Linux: 18 passed in 7.32s. Adding it to the job is one more path on the job's pytest line.
9. **README still names `pip install git-filter-repo` for adopting.** README:768 (§ Adopting) says "`git filter-repo` is a **hard dependency** — `pip install git-filter-repo`, or the same name from apt or brew." #595 found that `pip install` is refused on an externally managed Python (Debian 12, Ubuntu 23.04, Arch; PEP 668), and #598's install.sh no longer prints it. Neither #598 nor this PR touches that line.

Review: rv585 found 0 blockers, 2 should-fix and 8 nits on 649b089 (CHANGES NEEDED), fixed or answered in 01e8c2c; the re-review rv585b found 5 nits on 01e8c2c (APPROVE WITH NITS), fixed or answered in 3095a9c; rv585c found 4 nits on 5f001de (APPROVE WITH NITS), fixed or answered in fe58d66. CI (Brett Heap's ruling 27, Linux-only since #597): H0 is the head 52524fe, a hand-resolved merge of main 396c0ff, green on tests (Linux), tests-git-bash and SonarCloud; main since then (#625 8f453d0, #583 de428f5) touched none of this PR's files, and the local gate passed on the predicted squash over de428f5: the launcher's, the installer's and install.sh's filter-repo suites, 131 passed; and the hygiene, README-section, CLI-reference, setup-by-hand and Windows-quoting sets, 171 passed. The tests-git-bash job is on Brett Heap's word of 2026-10-15T18:20:35Z, "Option 1: keep a small Git Bash job for #596". Landed on Brett Heap's word of 2026-10-15T22:24:36Z, "Merge #596 when its turn comes".

Closes #585

Takes #570, #598, #624 and #625 (main since fbbbc8d, this PR's base) so the
branch is tested against the main it will land on. The merge is clean: the
branch changes adopt-project.py in the follow-up lines and the contracts rule
and main in the pin, `--org` and readiness code, with no hunk in common (#600).

…notes entries for the five pull requests landed since 2000488, current to main 40e678e (#563, #683)

RV630's review of rounds A3, A4 and B1 (#630 issuecomment-6233641684,
READY), its four optional nits:
- 1: README.md's drift paragraph ended on the one-word line "finished.".
  "exactly " and "about the shape " are cut, and the paragraph re-wraps
  to seven lines with both bold leads whole. README.md is 1474 lines, its
  cap (1422 + 2 + 5 + 12 + 22 + 10 + 1); tests/readme-cap.d/683.txt is
  +1, and its text says why. Both `Keeping a project's shape current`
  markers move to df780eb5; the other 21 read current.
- 2: #682's lead reads "A holder's `make bootstrap` that left a member
  unchecked-out".
- 3: #730's entry says "Comments and docstrings", not "Four": its squash
  makes three claims, comments only.
- 4: the doctor's `members` row has one bullet, #705's sentence and
  #624's together.

Wave B2 so far, `git log --first-parent 2000488..40e678e`, each entry
from its squash diff:
- #713 (#645): the test session turns git's automatic maintenance off
  (Install, CI and the docs).
- #812 (#693): `add --local-remote-dir`'s member clone URL, the remedies
  and the READMEs' quoted clone URL (the `--local-remote-dir` bullet).
- #767 (#685): `members/` renamed with `git mv` is renamed back in two
  steps, and the git a printed `--sparse` needs (family).
- #745 (#704, #694): lane 5's line (#630 issuecomment-6227129879), with
  v1.0.0's known limit at v1.0.0.md:463 (no git on `PATH`) said closed
  (Bootstrap).
- #805 (#690): `make siblings`'s inputs (family).
The counts (111 pull requests; 122 of 135 milestone issues closed at
16:14Z), "current to main" and the open list (13, each with a pull
request open) are at main 40e678e, still placeholders.
