docs: drop period in headers

2026-05-14T16:03:56+00:00

Add timing keyword argument for hooks

2026-04-22T00:10:07+00:00

Measure the duration of the sync operation in the Execute method of the Sync command and pass it to post-sync hooks as a standard keyword argument (`sync_duration_seconds`). Updates based on code review: - Update _API_ARGS in hooks.py to allow sync_duration_seconds for post-sync hooks. - Do not cast sync_duration_seconds to int for better granularity. - Update docs/repo-hooks.md to document sync_duration_seconds. - Add unit test for argument validation in test_hooks.py. Test: Ran run_tests using venv python, all 554 tests passed.

manifest: Add `sync-strategy` attribute to project elements

2026-04-09T19:09:28+00:00

The only supported sync-strategy is "stateless". The intent is to keep the local workspace as small as possible by not keeping history during syncs. This prevents disk space waste for projects with large binaries where we only care about the current version. A follow up change will implement the logic.

project: Use dicts to keep track of copyfiles and linkfiles

2025-11-26T10:07:35+00:00

This avoids copying/linking the same file/link multiple times if a copyfile/linkfile element with the same values has been specifed multiple times. This can happen when including a common manifest that uses an extend-project element that has a copyfile/linkfile element. This uses dicts rather than sets to store the copyfiles and linkfiles to make sure the order they are specified in the manifest is maintained. For Python 3.7+, maintaining the order that keys are added to dicts is guaranteed, and for Python 3.6 it happened to be true. The _CopyFile class and the _LinkFile class are changed to inherit from NamedTuple to be able to store them in dicts.
