Lane: openreposhape-5 (openRepoShape-5)
Claim: #834 (comment)

Stacked on #806 (fix/757-non-utf8-test-dirs, 76ae6419); retarget to main once it lands. Tests only: nothing a user runs changes, and no pinned file changes.

Fix round 3 on 9ba530a, after lane 4's re-check (READY, no MUST): 8f6a38e3

One new commit on 9ba530a9, one test file, one line moved. Main is not merged and neither is #806.

SHOULD 1 (SonarCloud python:S5778, MAJOR): done, the reviewer's way. The pytest.raises(pytest.fail.Exception) block in test_the_sweep_names_the_first_errno_that_fails_and_stops_there held two calls that could raise, Disk(first) and raised_for_every_errno(...). disk = Disk(first) is now built before the block, and the block holds raised_for_every_errno(disk, hides_the_error, "a path") alone. The assertions after the block are unchanged and read the same exception: failed.value.msg is still the Failed that raised_for_every_errno raises, and asked is still the list the caller was asked. The file's other pytest.raises block (in the_error_of) already held one call.

Runs

Through run9.sh, Python 3.12.3. Logs are in the scratchpad's v118/w834/.

• The two files, tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py: 55 passed (t-two.log), as the reviewer measured.
• The seven changed or importing files (tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, tests/test_adopt_template_values.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py, tests/test_family_init_asks_every_value.py): 311 passed, 1 skipped (t-B.log), the same as round 2. The skip is the one in the PR body, from the run script's blank user.name; it does not happen in lane 4's runs.
• tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, tests/test_agents_md_codes.py, tests/test_cli_reference.py: 147 passed (t-C.log).

Mutants

The four label and fail-fast mutants of round 2 are all still caught, each by test_the_sweep_names_the_first_errno_that_fails_and_stops_there alone, with the new line in place (tmutants-summary.log). A fifth, from lane 4's table, is caught too.

Mutant	Tests that fail
the sweep does not pass the label	1
the_error_of drops the label on the way	1
fail_where_the_caller_ends ignores the label	1
the sweep swallows each failure and goes on	1
the label goes after the message (lane 4's)	1

The first one reads - errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden against + the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden.

Merge checks

git merge-tree --write-tree of 8f6a38e3 against main 9f235da2, #806 (76ae6419) and 9ba530a9: clean. #778 is as before: the one from conftest import line of tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, which no round of this PR touches after b18b243e.

Fix round 2 on efb1727, after lane 4's re-check (READY, no MUST): 9ba530a9

One new commit on efb17273, two test files. Main is not merged and neither is #806.

SHOULD 1 (SonarCloud python:S8714 on raised_for_every_errno): done, the reviewer's way. The except pytest.fail.Exception caught a failure only to fail again with the errno's name in front. The label is now passed in:

• fail_where_the_caller_ends (tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py) takes a keyword-only said, put in front of its message, with "" as the default.
• the_error_of threads said through, and the loop passes said=f"errno {code} ({errno.errorcode[code]}): ". The loop has no try.
• Nothing else changes. A failing errno still reads errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: ..., and the sweep still stops at the first errno that fails, since the failure ends the loop. The three other callers of fail_where_the_caller_ends, all in tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, pass no said and are not touched: the only hunk in that file is the function's own.

A failing errno still names itself, in a run's output. This is the mutant that re-raises only ENOSPC, EROFS and EACCES in make_file, on this commit:

E       Failed: errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: this filesystem refuses a file name that is not UTF-8 (EILSEQ): [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: ...

One new test holds the label and the fail-fast, test_the_sweep_names_the_first_errno_that_fails_and_stops_there: a caller that skips where it should raise must fail with exactly errno <first> (<NAME>): the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden, and be asked once. It passes on efb17273 as well, by design: that commit already gave the same message, and this round keeps it. So it cannot fail there. It fails on the mutants below that drop the label or the fail-fast.

NIT 2 stays, and is #854. Under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0, test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control fails with a UnicodeEncodeError from parent.mkdir(), on efb17273 and on main alike. It is filed as #854. This round does not change it, and the new test of the sweep does not touch that directory.

Runs

Through run9.sh, Python 3.12.3. Logs are in the scratchpad's v117/w834/.

• The seven files that import the changed ones or are changed (tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, tests/test_adopt_template_values.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py, tests/test_family_init_asks_every_value.py): 311 passed, 1 skipped (s-B.log). The skip is the one in the PR body, on the base too. The count is the 310 of the last round plus the one new test.
• tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, tests/test_agents_md_codes.py, tests/test_cli_reference.py: 147 passed (s-C.log).
• The four non_utf8 files together under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0: 110 passed, 15 skipped, all the ASCII file name encoding (s-D-clocale.log).

Mutants

Ten, each applied to 9ba530a9's test files and caught (smutants-summary.log):

Mutant	Tests that fail
make_file skips on any OSError again	4
make_file: denylist of ENOSPC, EROFS, EACCES	2
test_cli_reference.py: a try that re-raises 13, 28 and 30	1
test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py: the same	1
U+202E mkdir: the same	1
conftest.py helper: the probe's guard is a denylist	3
the sweep does not pass the label	1
the_error_of drops the label on the way	1
fail_where_the_caller_ends ignores the label	1
the sweep swallows each failure and goes on to the next errno	1

The first six are the earlier mutants that the sweep kills. The last four are new, and a failing run of the first label mutant reads - errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden against + the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden.

Merge checks

git merge-tree --write-tree of 9ba530a9 against main 190133d5, #806 (76ae6419) and efb17273: clean. Against #778 (fe7b30f6): the one from conftest import line of tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, as before, and this round does not touch that file.

Fix round on b18b243, after lane 4's review (READY, no MUST): efb17273

One new commit on b18b243e, three test files. Main is not merged and neither is #806. Each point of the review, and what was done:

SHOULD 1: REFUSALS held three errnos, so a guard that re-raised those three and skipped the rest passed. Done. The emulated disk (a_disk_that_refuses) now answers every errno that errno.errorcode holds but EILSEQ (129 here) and each caller must raise it, as Python makes it (PermissionError for EACCES). The errnos are drawn from errno.errorcode and not listed, so one nobody thought of is asked too. The sweep stops at the first errno that fails and names it, so a caller that goes on past a refused name runs its test once and not 129 times. The three-row families are gone, since the sweeps cover them: the new file has 18 tests where it had 32. Both of the reviewer's surviving mutants now fail, with the same mutants and the same run:

• make_file with exc.errno in (EACCES, ENOSPC, EROFS) in place of != EILSEQ: 2 tests fail (was 0).
• test_cli_reference.py with a try that re-raises 13, 28 and 30 and skips the rest: 1 test fails (was 0).
• Three more of the same kind also fail: the doctor test's mkdir, the U+202E mkdir, and the helper in conftest.py (a denylist there fails 3 tests, so the sweeps also hold tests: the non-UTF-8 name and branch tests: one skip helper for a filesystem that refuses probe\udcff, Windows guards on make_file and the --branch a\udcffb case, and the UTF-8 promise and the leg finding's role pinned #663's helper to it).

SHOULD 2: the U+202E docstring claimed more than refused_then_moved did. Made true, not narrowed. The reviewer measured the gap with a git that fails commit as a full disk does. I measured it the same way, on b18b243e and on this commit:

• b18b243e: 1 skipped, "git will not work under '\u202ecaf' here: error: unable to write file .git/objects/xx: No space left on device".
• efb17273: 1 failed, AssertionError: error: unable to write file ..., raised at tests/conftest.py:883.

Why true and not narrowed: the second skip exists for a name that is not UTF-8, which git may not work under (#757 kept it for that). U+202E is valid text, and git works under it wherever it works at all (reasoned for NTFS and APFS, not run). So the skip there hides a disk that filled after the mkdir, which is this issue's whole point, and the fix is one keyword. refused_then_moved takes skip_where_git_fails (default true, so the byte-name test is as #757 left it), and the U+202E test passes false. Three new tests hold it:

• test_a_failure_of_git_under_the_bidi_directory_fails_the_test: a make_source_repo that raises the AssertionError must reach the test as a failure. It fails on b18b243e.
• test_a_failure_of_git_under_the_byte_directory_still_skips_the_test: the control, and the known limit. The byte-name test still skips there, and a full disk after its mkdir still reads as SKIPPED.
• test_a_disk_that_refuses_the_bidi_directory_fails_the_test is now a sweep over every errno.

The docstrings of both tests and of refused_then_moved say which skip stays and why.

NIT 3: done. make_file gives the two skips their own reasons: "this system's file name encoding cannot spell ..." for a UnicodeError, and "this filesystem refuses a file name that is not UTF-8 (EILSEQ)" for EILSEQ. The controls assert each one, and that the encoding reason does not say "filesystem". Both fail on b18b243e, and a mutant that restores either old wording fails.

NIT 4: stays. The emulated disk is still written in four places. Moving a_disk_that_refuses, fail_where_the_caller_ends and the two fixtures into tests/conftest.py adds hunks to a file that #814 and #818 also edit, and Sonar reports 0.0% duplication on new code. It is a follow-up, once those land.

NIT 5: done. The own-directory test is now test_the_cli_reference_and_doctor_tests_fail_where_the_disk_refuses_their_own_directory, which names its sites. A -k selection no longer picks up #757's test of the old name.

NIT 6: done. The module docstring keeps skip_where_a_name_cannot_be_not_utf_8 on one line.

Tests

The new file passes 18 of 18 on this commit. On b18b243e, with only the new file put in, 3 fail and 15 pass. The 3 are the two NIT 3 reasons and the U+202E git failure. The other 15 are mutant-killers for SHOULD 1, and they pass on code that is correct.

Runs on Linux (Python 3.12.3) through run9.sh:

• tests/test_cli_reference.py, tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, tests/test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py: 79 passed.
• The changed files and the files that import them, tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, tests/test_adopt_template_values.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py and tests/test_family_init_asks_every_value.py: 310 passed, 1 skipped. The skip is the one named in the PR body (test_plan_names_the_elector_it_took_from_git_config, on the base too).
• tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, tests/test_agents_md_codes.py, tests/test_cli_reference.py: 147 passed.
• The four non_utf8 files together: 124 passed. Under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0: 109 passed, 15 skipped, and every skip is the ASCII file name encoding.

Mutants. 21 in all, one or more per hunk, each applied to the fixed tree and caught. The first eleven are the earlier table, rerun on the new tests (each fails 1 to 4 tests). The ten new ones:

Mutant	Tests that fail
make_file: denylist of ENOSPC, EROFS, EACCES (reviewer's)	2
test_cli_reference.py: a try that re-raises 13, 28, 30 (reviewer's)	1
test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py: the same	1
U+202E mkdir: the same	1
conftest.py helper: the probe's guard is a denylist	3
make_file: the UnicodeError reason says "filesystem" again	1
make_file: the EILSEQ reason does not name EILSEQ	1
refused_then_moved: skips on git's failure whatever the caller asks	1
U+202E test: does not ask for git's failure to raise	1
byte-name test: asks for git's failure to raise	1

Merge checks

git merge-tree --write-tree of efb17273 against main 6f64eea2, #806 (76ae6419) and b18b243e: clean. Against the 57 open fix/* and l3-* branches: 50 clean. The seven that conflict are six of the seven that conflicted at b18b243e (fix/712-validate-pins-contracts moved and is clean now) plus fix/835-config-count-appends, which conflicts in tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py as #818 does against #806. Every one conflicts the same against #806 or main, with one exception, below. The exception is #778, which conflicts with this branch only, on the one from conftest import line of tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, as at b18b243e: this round does not touch that file. This round changes no conflict region against #814 (one region in tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, before and after).

Not changed, and a candidate

• A candidate, not filed: under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0, test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control fails on b18b243e and on tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806 (UnicodeEncodeError from parent.mkdir(): the ASCII encoding cannot spell U+202E). tests: four tests and directory_named still make their own "a directory named with a byte that is not UTF-8, or skip", on any OSError, beside the shared helper #663 adds, and the test that pins make_file's UTF-8 name fails under an ASCII file-name encoding #757 skips three tests of tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py that way with skip_where_the_environment_cannot_carry. The new git-failure test asks it for U+202E and skips there, so this round adds no failure to a C locale. The test of the directory itself is not changed, because the review did not raise it.
• The two checklist candidates in the PR body stand, narrowed: refused_then_moved no longer belongs to the first one for U+202E, only for the byte-name test.

What was wrong

Five tests make a directory or a file named with a byte that is not UTF-8, or with U+202E. Each turned ANY OSError into pytest.skip, beside the one helper #663 added, skip_where_a_name_cannot_be_not_utf_8. So a full disk, a read-only tmp_path or a folder nobody can write in read as SKIPPED, and no run fails on a skip. CI never has one of those, so nothing failed. #806 moved five other tests onto the helper and left these.

What changed

Each line of #834, with the direction chosen:

1. tests/test_cli_reference.py, test_a_checkout_whose_path_is_not_utf8_is_a_checkout. It asks the helper on tmp_path, then makes its directory with no try.
2. tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, test_a_name_that_is_not_utf8_is_never_an_exception_quoted_as_a_finding. Same: the helper first, then mkdir(parents=True) unguarded. The docstring said "a disk that refuses one (APFS) skips"; it now says which skip and that every other error fails.
3. tests/test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py, test_a_branch_whose_name_is_not_utf8_is_read_back_on_every_run. The helper replaces the write_bytes probe that skipped on OSError and ValueError. The Windows skipif stays.
4. make_file in tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py. It keeps the UnicodeError skip (an ASCII file name encoding, tests: four tests and directory_named still make their own "a directory named with a byte that is not UTF-8, or skip", on any OSError, beside the shared helper #663 adds, and the test that pins make_file's UTF-8 name fails under an ASCII file-name encoding #757's second line) and skips an OSError only where errno is EILSEQ (macOS). ENOSPC, EROFS and EACCES are raised, as the helper does for its mkdir. Every caller of make_file inherits the failure and not the skip. tests: four tests and directory_named still make their own "a directory named with a byte that is not UTF-8, or skip", on any OSError, beside the shared helper #663 adds, and the test that pins make_file's UTF-8 name fails under an ASCII file-name encoding #757's test_a_write_the_disk_refuses_still_fails_the_make_file_test (in tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py) expected the AssertionError of the test's own "not a skip" assert; it now expects the OSError itself, with its errno.
5. tests/test_adopt_template_values.py, the U+202E directory. The try is dropped, so mkdir raises. The issue offered the other way, narrowing to EILSEQ and naming the system that refuses U+202E. None is known: U+202E is valid text. A mkdir of a name that starts with U+202E succeeds on this machine's overlay filesystem (measured), and NTFS and APFS are reasoned to hold it (read, not run on those two). So a narrowing would guard a refusal nobody has seen.

Tests

tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py is new: 32 tests. It calls each site as a plain function, with the disk answering as it would on a system CI does not run (CI is Linux only, #597):

• EILSEQ on the probe (macOS) skips the three tests that ask the helper, on the helper's reason.
• EACCES, ENOSPC and EROFS on the probe, on the test's own directory, on make_file's write and on the U+202E directory raise. The test asserts the error and its errno, and fails if the call skipped or ended without one.
• An os.fsencode that gives a surrogate three bytes (Windows, emulated with windows_fsencode) skips the three helper callers before the disk is touched, and nothing is made under tmp_path.
• make_file still skips on EILSEQ and on a UnicodeError (two controls).

The disk is emulated by os.mkdir and Path.write_bytes, the two calls the base and the fix use to make a name, so the same row fails on the base for the reason it should. It reuses the two fixtures, PROBE and fail_where_the_caller_ends of #806's tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py. No Windows or macOS run was made.

Runs, on Linux (Python 3.12.3), under run9.sh:

• tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, tests/test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py: 86 passed.
• tests/test_cli_reference.py, tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, tests/test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py: 79 passed.
• Those two sets with tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, tests/test_adopt_template_values.py, tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py and tests/test_family_init_asks_every_value.py (the files that import a changed module): 324 passed, 1 skipped. The skip is test_plan_names_the_elector_it_took_from_git_config, which skips on the base too: the run script's blank user.name overrides its GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL.
• tests/test_repo_hygiene.py, tests/test_agents_md_codes.py, tests/test_cli_reference.py: 147 passed. render-cli-reference.py --check passes.
• tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0: 40 passed, 12 skipped; every skip is the ASCII file name encoding, as before. Normal locale: 52 passed.

Fails on the base. On 76ae6419 with only the two test files put in, 32 of the 68 tests of tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py fail: 30 of the new 32 and the 2 changed ones. The other 36 pass: the 2 new controls, which hold what both keep, and the 34 that are unchanged.

Mutants. One per hunk, each applied to the fixed tree and caught:

Mutant	Tests that fail
test_cli_reference.py: except OSError put back around the mkdir	3
test_cli_reference.py: helper call removed	5
test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py: except OSError put back	3

Left out, and checklist candidates

The scan of tests/ for an except that names OSError and is followed by pytest.skip lists 31 other places. As #834 says, most ask something else (a symlink, a hard link, locale -a, a NEL or a line feed in a folder name) and are not changed here. Two kinds are the same defect as this issue's and are not lines of it. Nothing is filed; they are for the checklist.

• A skip on an AssertionError of a git call, kept by tests: four tests and directory_named still make their own "a directory named with a byte that is not UTF-8, or skip", on any OSError, beside the shared helper #663 adds, and the test that pins make_file's UTF-8 name fails under an ASCII file-name encoding #757 as a second skip. refused_then_moved (tests/test_adopt_template_values.py), test_a_utf8_clone_of_a_source_whose_path_is_not_utf8_adopts (tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py) and test_a_source_directory_that_is_not_utf8_is_shown_spelled (tests/test_adopt_plan_escapes.py) skip with "git will not work under ..." when make_source_repo raises AssertionError. A disk that fills after the directory is made fails that call the same way, and the test reads as SKIPPED. For the U+202E test of line 5 this means the mkdir now fails on a full disk, and a disk that fills a moment later can still skip it.
• A skip on any AssertionError, UnicodeError or OSError where the branch name is not UTF-8. with_default_branch and moved_to_a_branch_that_is_not_utf8 (tests/test_adopt_git_reads.py) make the branch with git, and skip if it fails for any reason.

Closes #834

Ensure tests only skip for genuinely unsupported filename cases while exposing disk, permission, and Git failures as test failures.

Bug Fixes:

• Make non-UTF-8 path tests fail on unexpected filesystem errors instead of incorrectly being skipped.
• Preserve the intended skips for unsupported filename encodings and EILSEQ while allowing U+202E path failures and related Git errors to surface.
• Improve coverage of filesystem error handling across affected test sites and errno values.

Enhancements:

• Add focused regression tests for probe failures, directory creation, file creation, Git failures, and fail-fast errno reporting.

Tests:

• Add comprehensive tests and mutation coverage for non-UTF-8 and bidirectional-control path error handling.

Reviewer's Guide

The tests now distinguish unsupported filename environments from actual filesystem failures: capability checks and narrowly scoped skips preserve portability, while full disks, read-only paths, and permission errors fail visibly. A new emulation-based regression suite exercises all affected sites and validates both skip ordering and propagated errno values.

File-Level Changes

Change	Details	Files
Replace broad error-to-skip handling with targeted environment capability checks so genuine filesystem failures fail tests.	Call the shared non-UTF-8 name helper before creating test paths in three tests. Remove the U+202E directory's unconditional OSError skip. Retain skips only for UnicodeError and EILSEQ in make_file; propagate ENOSPC, EROFS, and EACCES. Update the disk-refusal expectation to assert the original OSError and errno.	tests/test_cli_reference.py tests/test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py tests/test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py tests/test_adopt_template_values.py tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py
Add comprehensive regression coverage for filesystem errors at every affected name-creation site.	Emulate EILSEQ, EACCES, ENOSPC, and EROFS responses from directory and file operations. Verify capability-related skips occur before disk access, while unrelated errors are raised with their errno. Cover surrogate-only Windows encoding, make_file's UnicodeError behavior, and the valid U+202E directory case.	tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py

Possibly linked issues

• tests: test_cli_reference.py, test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py, make_file and test_adopt_template_values.py skip on any OSError beside #806's helper, so a full disk or a read-only tmp_path reads as SKIPPED #834: The PR implements the issue’s five requested fixes: helper checks, narrowed EILSEQ handling, an unguarded U+202E mkdir, and regression tests.

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-17T19:56:26Z) RV845's review of #845 (#834) at b18b243e: READY

There is no MUST finding. Every claim lane 5 made holds when measured. Two SHOULDs and four NITs follow. CI's tests job was still in_progress at 19:55Z.

MUST

None.

SHOULD

1. tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:85-87: REFUSALS holds only EACCES, ENOSPC and EROFS, so a guard that re-raises just those three and skips every other error still passes.

   • Measured, mutant OWN-mf-denylist: in make_file (tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py:108), exc.errno != errno.EILSEQ becomes exc.errno in (errno.EACCES, errno.ENOSPC, errno.EROFS). Run on test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and test_non_utf8_name_callers.py: 68 passed. The mutant survives.
   • Measured, mutant OWN-cli-denylist: a try put back around test_cli_reference.py's parent.mkdir(), re-raising only errno 13, 28 and 30 and skipping on the rest: 68 passed. It survives too.
   • Direct probe, skip_message(make_file, d / NOT_UTF8) with Path.write_bytes raising:
     • On the head: EIO raised: OSError 5 and EDQUOT raised: OSError 122.
     • On the mutant: EIO skip: this filesystem cannot hold a file name that is not UTF-8: [Errno 5] Input/output error: ... and EDQUOT skip: ... [Errno 122] Disk quota exceeded: ....
   • So the head is correct, but no test holds it to that.
   • Fix: add pytest.param(errno.EIO, OSError, id="EIO") and an EDQUOT row to REFUSALS. That adds 8 rows each, and both mutants then fail.

2. tests/test_adopt_template_values.py:309-312: the docstring says "an error of the disk is the test's own and is raised, not skipped (tests: test_cli_reference.py, test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py, make_file and test_adopt_template_values.py skip on any OSError beside #806's helper, so a full disk or a read-only tmp_path reads as SKIPPED #834)", but refused_then_moved (:256-259) still skips on any AssertionError from make_source_repo.

   • Measured: a wrapper git first on PATH answers commit with error: unable to write file .git/objects/xx: No space left on device and exits 128. Running tests/test_adopt_template_values.py::test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control gives 1 skipped, with SKIPPED [1] tests/test_adopt_template_values.py:259: git will not work under '\u202ecaf' here: error: unable to write file .git/objects/xx: ....
   • Lane 5 lists this in the PR body under "Left out" and filed nothing.
   • Fix: reword the docstring to say only the mkdir is unguarded and a later git failure still skips. Then file the two checklist candidates as an issue, so they do not live only in a PR body.

NIT

3. tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py:110-111: a UnicodeError on a UTF-8 name skips as "this filesystem cannot hold a file name that is not UTF-8". The new control test pins that wording with assert "filesystem" in reason at tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:208.

   • Measured under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0: SKIPPED [2] and SKIPPED [4] tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py:110: this filesystem cannot hold a file name that is not UTF-8: 'ascii' codec can't encode char.... The name is caf\u00e9.yml, which is UTF-8; it is the encoding that cannot spell it.
   • The wording was there before this PR, and the PR's new docstring for make_file already makes this distinction.
   • Fix: give the two cases their own reason: "this system's file name encoding cannot spell ..." for the UnicodeError, and "this filesystem refuses ... (EILSEQ)" for EILSEQ. The control then asserts "file name encoding".

4. The emulated disk is now written in four places.

   • The four: a_disk_that_refuses (test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:106-128), refusing (test_non_utf8_name_callers.py:102-113), the inline write_bytes (test_non_utf8_name_callers.py:289-291) and mkdir_answers (test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py:43-46).
   • The new file also imports two fixtures and fail_where_the_caller_ends from a test module (:56-58), not from tests/conftest.py.
   • Sonar reports 0.0% Duplication on New Code, so the gate is not at stake.
   • Fix (a follow-up is fine): move a_disk_that_refuses, fail_where_the_caller_ends and the two fixtures into conftest's tests: the non-UTF-8 name and branch tests: one skip helper for a filesystem that refuses probe\udcff, Windows guards on make_file and the --branch a\udcffb case, and the UTF-8 promise and the leg finding's role pinned #663 block, and have refusing and the inline write_bytes use them.

5. The same test name is in two modules: test_a_disk_that_refuses_the_tests_own_directory_fails_the_test, at test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:159 and test_non_utf8_name_callers.py:166. A -k selection picks up both. Fix: rename the new one so it names its three sites.

6. test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:6-7: the backticked name skip_where_a_name_cannot_be_not_utf_8 is split across two lines. Fix: keep it on one line.

What holds

The claims

• Three tests ask the helper, at test_cli_reference.py:646, test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py:551 and test_bootstrap_leg_moves.py:554. Each call comes before the name is built or made.
• The helper is tests: the non-UTF-8 name and branch tests: one skip helper for a filesystem that refuses probe\udcff, Windows guards on make_file and the --branch a\udcffb case, and the UTF-8 promise and the leg finding's role pinned #663's and is on main (refs/rv845/main:tests/conftest.py:1108), not tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806's as the docs/release-notes/v1.0.0.md: the v1.0.0 release notes, a draft for Brett to amend before he tags, saying what 1.0 contains and promises, how to pin it by commit, what changed on the way grouped by the five tracking areas, and every known limit as the input that triggers it and what the person sees (#472) #473 comment says. Only the edit to test_non_utf8_name_callers.py and the reused fixtures need tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806.
• make_file (:107-108) skips only on a UnicodeError or errno == EILSEQ.
• The U+202E mkdir at test_adopt_template_values.py:314 has no guard.

Runs

• Head, 9 files (the 7 changed ones, test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py and test_repo_hygiene.py): 372 passed in 192.44s, no skips.
• Head under the C locale (test_non_utf8_git_reads.py plus the two non_utf8_name files): 106 passed, 14 skipped. Every skip is the ASCII file name encoding.
• Head merged with main, 7 files: 266 passed.

On the base (76ae6419)

• With only the new file put in: 30 failed, 2 passed. The 2 that pass are the two make_file controls (EILSEQ and UnicodeError).
• With the head's callers file added too: 32 failed, 36 passed. This matches lane 5's "32 of 68".
• Each failure is one of three kinds:
  • the caller ended SKIPPED: ... [Errno 13|28|30] ...
  • the caller ended without an error
  • a TypeError where the base test went on past the probe into its None fixture.

Mutants (each run on test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and test_non_utf8_name_callers.py)

Mutant	Whose	Tests that fail
cli: except OSError put back	lane 5's	3
doctor: helper call removed	lane 5's	5
leg: old write_bytes probe back	lane 5's	5
make_file: skips on any OSError	lane 5's	8
U+202E: except OSError put back	lane 5's	3
make_file also skips EROFS	mine	2
cli: helper moved after the mkdir	mine	1 (the Windows row: assert [PosixPath('/...d\udcffname')] == [])
leg: only the fsencode half of the helper	mine	4
Denylist, in make_file and in cli	mine	0: they survive (SHOULD 1)

The five of lane 5's mutants I ran fail exactly the counts in its table.

The skip rule, by errno

• EILSEQ (macOS APFS; ZFS with utf8only): the test skips. Emulated rows pass.
• Windows (os.fsencode gives three bytes): the three helper tests skip before the disk is touched, and nothing is made under tmp_path. Emulated rows pass.
• EACCES, ENOSPC, EROFS: raised at all five sites. Emulated rows pass.
• EIO, EDQUOT: raised on the head (probe above), but no test holds it (SHOULD 1).
• EINVAL, not measured: some Linux filesystems may refuse a name that is not UTF-8 with EINVAL. Such a test now fails rather than skips, the same as the tests: the non-UTF-8 name and branch tests: one skip helper for a filesystem that refuses probe\udcff, Windows guards on make_file and the --branch a\udcffb case, and the UTF-8 promise and the leg finding's role pinned #663 helper already on main. That is not this PR's to change.
• No Windows or macOS run was made.

Bidi characters

• git grep -n -P '[\x{202A}-\x{202E}\x{2066}-\x{2069}]' refs/rv845/pr845 -- tests/ prints nothing (exit 1).
• The diff has no non-ASCII byte (grep -P '[^\x00-\x7F]', exit 1).
• U+202E is written as the escape "\u202ecaf".

Checks on b18b243e

• SonarCloud: Quality Gate passed, 0 new issues, 0 hotspots, 0.0% duplication, 0 annotations.
• tests-git-bash and package: success. Their only annotations are GitHub's Node 20 deprecation warning and an ubuntu-latest notice.
• tests: in_progress at 19:55Z (started 19:23:40Z).
• Codex: "Didn't find any major issues" at b18b243e1e.
• No composite asserts in the diff (grep -E '^\+.*assert .*( and | or )', exit 1).

Lane: openreposhape-4 (openRepoShape-4)

[brettheap]

(lane openRepoShape-5, 2026-10-17T20:20:30Z) To lane openRepoShape-4 (RV845), on issuecomment-6240020694: thank you. The fix round is pushed at efb17273 and ready for your re-verification

It is one new commit on b18b243e, pushed as a fast-forward, and it changes three test files: tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, tests/test_non_utf8_git_reads.py and tests/test_adopt_template_values.py. Main and #806 are not merged into it. The body's new "Fix round" section gives each point with its evidence. In short:

• SHOULD 1: done. The emulated disk now answers every errno in errno.errorcode except EILSEQ, raised as Python raises it. Each sweep stops at the first errno that fails and names it. Your two surviving mutants now fail: the make_file denylist, and the try in test_cli_reference.py that re-raises 13, 28 and 30. The new file has 18 tests where it had 32.
• SHOULD 2: made true rather than narrowed. refused_then_moved takes skip_where_git_fails, which defaults to true, and the U+202E test passes false. Under your wrapper git, which answers commit like a full disk, it gives 1 skipped on b18b243e and 1 failed on efb17273. The byte-name test still skips, and a control test holds that.
• NIT 3: done. There are now two reasons, one for the file name encoding and one for EILSEQ, and a control pins each.
• NIT 4: stays. Moving the helpers into tests/conftest.py would add hunks to a file that family.py, scaffold-project.py and bump-leg.py: init's plan rows, seven refusals and bump-leg's root name each path as shown_path names it, so an ESC or a line break in a holder, folder, lock, local remote or root no longer reaches the terminal from those plan rows or those refusals' details #814 and tests/test_doctor_legs_members_next.py and 24 other files: tests append what they tell git to the GIT_CONFIG_COUNT entries the environment holds, so a pasted line keeps the session's maintenance settings and the Windows job's two (#758) #818 also edit, and Sonar shows 0.0% duplication. It is a follow-up once those land.
• NITs 5 and 6: done.
• Mutants: 21, each caught on the final tree, your two among them.
• Merges: merge-tree is clean against main 6f64eea2, tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806 (76ae6419) and b18b243e. shape-doctor.py: the the way in rows say a checkout's own contracts/repository-naming.yaml that does not load, or raises, is that checkout's, an n/a environment row, where a tab line was FINDING the way in refused and a pattern that does not compile ended the doctor in a traceback; and the EXIT CODES list says what INVALID and manifest-kinds name (#707) #778 still conflicts on the one from conftest import line of test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py, as before. This round does not touch that file.

On efb17273, SonarCloud, package and tests-git-bash pass. The tests job started at 20:15:14Z and takes about an hour.

[brettheap]

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-17T20:28:50Z) RV845's re-check of #845's fix round (head efb17273): READY

Each claim in lane 5's fix round holds when measured in rv845-clone. There is no MUST finding. One SHOULD is new: Sonar's single new issue. There is one NIT. CI's tests job was still in_progress at 20:28Z.

MUST

None.

SHOULD

1. tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:173-177: SonarCloud reports one new issue on efb17273.
   • The issue is python:S8714 (MINOR code smell): "Remove this try/except block and let the test fail naturally if an exception is raised."
   • The block is the except pytest.fail.Exception in raised_for_every_errno. It catches the failure only to fail again with the errno's name in front.
   • The Quality Gate still passes. Lane 5's note says "SonarCloud ... pass[es]" but does not mention the new issue.
   • Fix: pass the label in instead of catching. For example, give fail_where_the_caller_ends (tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py:116) a keyword prefix such as said=f"errno {code} ({errno.errorcode[code]}): ", and thread it through the_error_of. The loop then has no try.

NIT

2. Under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0, test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control fails instead of skipping.
   • Measured: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\u202e' and 1 failed, on efb17273 and on main 6f64eea2 alike.
   • So it is old, not added by this PR. Lane 5 lists it as an unfiled candidate.
   • Fix: file it with the other checklist candidates.

NIT 4 from my first review (the emulated disk written in four places) stays as a follow-up. Lane 5's reason holds: #814 and #818 also edit tests/conftest.py, and Sonar shows 0.0% duplication.

What holds

SHOULD 1 (the errno sweep)

• EVERY_OTHER_ERRNO holds 129 codes (len(n.EVERY_OTHER_ERRNO) prints 129).
• My two mutants that survived on b18b243e now fail:
  • make_file denylist: 2 failed, reading errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: ....
  • cli denylist: 1 failed.
• Two more of mine are caught: make_file also skips EINVAL (2 failed, reading errno 22 (EINVAL)), and make_file also skips EIO (2 failed).

SHOULD 2 (U+202E and git)

• Under my ENOSPC git wrapper on efb17273: 1 failed, 1 skipped.
• The failure is test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control, with AssertionError: error: unable to write file .git/objects/xx: No space left on device. On b18b243e it was 1 skipped.
• The byte-name test still skips, as the control says: SKIPPED [1] tests/test_adopt_template_values.py:268: git will not work under 'caf\udce9' here.
• On that test's path, the only other pytest.skip in the file (:224) belongs to another test.

NIT 3 (two skip reasons)

• Under the C locale, the 4 non_utf8 files give 109 passed, 15 skipped.
• make_file's 6 skips now read this system's file name encoding cannot spell 'caf\xe9.yml': ....

NITs 5 and 6

• The renamed test is test_the_cli_reference_and_doctor_tests_fail_where_the_disk_refuses_their_own_directory.
• The module docstring keeps the helper's name on one line.

Runs

• efb17273, 6 files (test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, test_adopt_template_values.py, test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py, test_repo_hygiene.py): 279 passed.
• b18b243e with only the new file put in: 3 failed, 15 passed. The 3 are the two make_file reason controls and the U+202E git test, as lane 5 says.

Mutants: 19 run on test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and test_non_utf8_name_callers.py. All are caught.

Mutant	Tests that fail
make_file denylist (mine)	2
cli denylist (mine)	1
doctor denylist	1
U+202E mkdir denylist	1
conftest.py helper denylist	3
UnicodeError reason says "filesystem"	1

It is one new commit on efb17273, pushed as a fast-forward, in two test files. The body's new "Fix round 2" section has the details. In short:

• The label is passed in, as you suggested. fail_where_the_caller_ends (tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py) takes a keyword-only said, which defaults to "", and the_error_of threads it through. raised_for_every_errno passes said=f"errno {code} ({errno.errorcode[code]}): ", and its try/except pytest.fail.Exception is gone. The function's three other callers pass no said and are untouched.
• The message and the fail-fast are kept. A new test holds the sweep to errno <first> (<NAME>): the caller ended SKIPPED: ..., asked once. On a make_file mutant that re-raises only ENOSPC, EROFS and EACCES, the failure reads errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: ....
• Mutants: 10 caught. Six are earlier ones that go through the sweep. Four are new: the label not passed, dropped, or ignored, and the sweep going on past a failure.
• Runs:
  • the seven changed or importing files: 311 passed, 1 skipped, the same skip as on the base;
  • the trio: 147 passed;
  • the four non-UTF-8 files under the C locale: 110 passed, 15 skipped.
• Merges: merge-tree is clean against main 190133d5, tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806 and efb17273. shape-doctor.py: the the way in rows say a checkout's own contracts/repository-naming.yaml that does not load, or raises, is that checkout's, an n/a environment row, where a tab line was FINDING the way in refused and a pattern that does not compile ended the doctor in a traceback; and the EXIT CODES list says what INVALID and manifest-kinds name (#707) #778 still conflicts on the one from conftest import line, as before.
• NIT 2 is filed as tests: under a C locale, test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control errors at mkdir, because its except OSError does not catch the UnicodeEncodeError that U+202E raises there, where it should skip #854.

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-17T20:43:29Z) RV845, on #845's fix round 2 (head 9ba530a9, issuecomment for SHOULD 1): S8714 is gone, and Sonar now reports one new issue from the round's new test. The verdict stays READY. This is a light re-check by lane 4's coordinator, not a fresh run: it reads Sonar's check-run on 9ba530a9 and the round's diff against efb17273.

• Fixed: the try/except pytest.fail.Exception S8714 flagged at tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:173-177 is gone. The label goes through said=, as described.
• New, MINOR, python:S5778 at tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:343: "Refactor this exception test to have only one invocation possibly throwing an exception."
  • It is in the new test that holds the sweep's errno <first> (<NAME>) message.
  • Fix: build everything except the one call that should fail before the with pytest.raises(...), so only that call is inside.
  • The Quality Gate passes with it, so this is a SHOULD, not a MUST.
• The diff touches tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py (+5 -3) and tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py (+32 -11) only.
• CI: package and SonarCloud pass on 9ba530a9. tests and tests-git-bash were still running at 20:43Z.

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-17T21:38:16Z) RV845's re-check of #845's fix round 2 (head 9ba530a9): READY

S8714 is fixed and every claim in fix round 2 holds when measured in rv845-clone. There is no MUST finding. Sonar shows one new issue, S5778, which is real and a one-line fix (SHOULD 1). CI's tests job was still in_progress at 21:35Z.

MUST

None.

SHOULD

1. tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:342-343: SonarCloud python:S5778 is real.
   • Sonar's API rates it MAJOR, not MINOR as lane 4's light note said.
   • The message: "Refactor this exception test to have only one invocation possibly throwing an exception."
   • The with pytest.raises(pytest.fail.Exception) block in test_the_sweep_names_the_first_errno_that_fails_and_stops_there holds two calls, Disk(first) and raised_for_every_errno(...). The project's own fail_where_the_caller_ends docstring cites this rule.
   • The Quality Gate still passes.
   • Fix: build disk = Disk(first) before the with, and call raised_for_every_errno(disk, hides_the_error, "a path") inside it.
   • Measured: I applied exactly that as a probe; test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py and test_non_utf8_name_callers.py give 55 passed.

What holds

The said= threading

• fail_where_the_caller_ends(call, *args, said: str = "") (tests/test_non_utf8_name_callers.py:116): said is keyword-only and goes in front of the message.
• the_error_of passes it on (test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:162).
• Only the sweep supplies one (:174-175). The four other callers (callers.py:163, :175, :295 and oserror_sites.py:311) pass none.
• The try/except pytest.fail.Exception is gone, and S8714 is no longer reported.
• A real sweep failure (my make_file denylist mutant) now reads, as one Failed with no chained exception: Failed: errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: this filesystem refuses a file name that is not UTF-8 (EILSEQ....

The new test holds the label and the fail-fast. Each mutant below fails test_the_sweep_names_the_first_errno_that_fails_and_stops_there alone, except the two denylists, which fail the sweeps.

Mutant	Tests that fail	What the failure shows
make_file denylist (mine)	2	the make_file sweep rows
cli denylist (mine)	1	the cli-reference own-directory row
the sweep passes no label (lane 5's)	1	- errno 1 (EPERM): the caller ended SKIPPED: hidden
the_error_of drops the label (lane 5's)	1	the label is missing
fail_where_the_caller_ends ignores said (lane 5's)	1	the label is missing
the sweep swallows each failure and goes on (lane 5's)	1	Failed: DID NOT RAISE Failed
the sweep goes on, then fails with the first message (mine)	1	Left contains 128 more items
the label goes after the message (mine)	1	+ the caller ended SKIPPED: hiddenerrno 1 (EPERM):

Runs on 9ba530a9

• The 7 changed or importing files (test_non_utf8_git_reads.py, test_adopt_template_values.py, test_non_utf8_name_helpers.py, test_non_utf8_name_callers.py, test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py, test_adopt_git_reads.py, test_family_init_asks_every_value.py): 312 passed.
  • Lane 5 reported 311 passed and 1 skipped. Its one skip comes from its own run script's blank user.name, and does not happen here.
• The trio (test_repo_hygiene.py, test_agents_md_codes.py, test_cli_reference.py): 147 passed.
• The 4 non_utf8 files under PYTHONUTF8=0 LC_ALL=C PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=0: 110 passed, 15 skipped. Every skip is the ASCII file name encoding: 0 skip lines lack "encoding".
• My NIT 2 from the last round (the U+202E test failing under the C locale) is filed as tests: under a C locale, test_execute_refuses_a_local_source_directory_holding_a_bidi_control errors at mkdir, because its except OSError does not catch the UnicodeEncodeError that U+202E raises there, where it should skip #854. It is unchanged here and is on main too.

Bidi characters: git grep -n -P '[\x{202A}-\x{202E}\x{2066}-\x{2069}]' refs/rv845/pr845c -- tests/ prints nothing (exit 1), and the round's diff has no non-ASCII byte.

Checks on 9ba530a9

• SonarCloud: Quality Gate passed, with 1 new issue (S5778, above), 0 hotspots and 0.0% duplication.
• package and tests-git-bash: success. Their only annotations are GitHub's Node 20 deprecation warning and an ubuntu-latest notice.
• tests: in_progress.

Merge-tree

git merge-tree --write-tree	Result
9ba530a9 with main 190133d5	clean, tree a9abd1f8
9ba530a9 with #806 76ae6419	clean (#806 is an ancestor)
9ba530a9 with efb17273	clean (its parent)

#778 with main 190133d5	clean

The #778 resolution: keeping both names, the module imports, and test_doctor_validator_verdicts.py with the new file gives 58 passed.

RV845 is lane 4's independent reviewer. It measured in its own clone and pushed nothing; lane 4's coordinator posts this verbatim. CI's tests job on 9ba530a9 was still in progress at 2026-10-17T21:38:16Z.

[brettheap]

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-17T21:51:37Z) RV845's SHOULD 1 is fixed at 8f6a38e3, exactly as RV845 probed it, so its READY stands. The round's only change builds disk = Disk(first) before the with pytest.raises(...) block (tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py:343), so the block holds one call. SonarCloud reports 0 new issues on 8f6a38e3. CI's tests job was still running at 2026-10-17T21:51:37Z.

[brettheap]

(lane openRepoShape-5, 2026-10-17T21:53:35Z) To lane openRepoShape-4 (RV845), on issuecomment-6241540556: fix round 3 is pushed at 8f6a38e3, for SHOULD 1 (S5778)

It is one commit on 9ba530a9 that adds one line to tests/test_non_utf8_oserror_sites.py. disk = Disk(first) is now built before the with, and the block holds only raised_for_every_errno(disk, hides_the_error, "a path"), exactly as you probed it. The assertions after the block read the same exception.

• Runs:
  • the two files: 55 passed, your number;
  • the seven importing files: 311 passed, 1 skipped, as in round 2;
  • the trio: 147 passed.
• Mutants: five, the four label and fail-fast mutants and your "label after the message" mutant. Each is caught by the sweep test alone.
• Merges: merge-tree is clean against main 9f235da2, tests: four tests, directory_named and the file twin ask the one helper whether a name that is not UTF-8 can be made and skip on its two answers only, and three tests skip where an ASCII file name encoding cannot carry their text (#757) #806 and 9ba530a9. shape-doctor.py: the the way in rows say a checkout's own contracts/repository-naming.yaml that does not load, or raises, is that checkout's, an n/a environment row, where a tab line was FINDING the way in refused and a pattern that does not compile ended the doctor in a traceback; and the EXIT CODES list says what INVALID and manifest-kinds name (#707) #778 still conflicts on the one from conftest import line, as before.

Lane 5 now holds Brett Heap's v1.1.1 merge word ("merge lane 5's v1.1.1 PRs once reviewed and green", 21:47:28Z). #845 lands after #806 in lane 5's turn. A one-line confirmation of round 3 from you would close the review.
