* trunk: resume before the Reload experimentGabriel Schneider2026-09-15
| | | | Empty marker on the last pre-Reload change. Keep the Reload experiment on reload (3801914), its first change on reload-start (200a1fc), and the unfinished performance investigation on reload-perf-wip.

* the gui shell watches files tooGabriel Schneider2026-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It never did — the effect arm was `.watch => {}` with a comment saying a shell that never delivers the event simply never reloads. That was written as a deliberate scope cut and it is the whole bug: the user runs pardes-gui. The tty watcher was fine, and I proved all four suspicions false against a real binary in a real pty with the write done by a stranger process and NO input delivered afterwards: the loop does wake (postEvent signals an empty queue), zig fmt's rename-over does fire MOVED_TO and is caught, three panes across two directories all reload and closing one leaves its neighbour still following, and the self-write hash guard does not swallow a real change. The live session even had its inotify mark on src with the right mask and re-read config.zig when I touched that directory. Duplicated rather than shared with tty.zig, the way the two shells already each own LspJob, forkShell and their pty readers. The headless PARDES_TEST_GRID path deliberately passes -1: its contract is one frame per scripted input, and a reload on its own clock would put an unasked-for frame in the stream. filewatch.snap proved less than it looked. Its real blind spots were the rename-over shape — the old script only truncated, so it saw CLOSE_WRITE and never MOVED_TO — multiple directories, and the one that mattered: the suite only ever runs the TTY binary, so it structurally cannot see a gui-only regression. It now uses a new `run` directive whose writer is a child of the RUNNER, so nothing it does reaches an app pty.
* open files follow the disk, and undo is the merge strategyGabriel Schneider2026-08-01
An external update is pushed onto the undo stack exactly like an edit the user typed, so unsaved work is one `u` away and pardes never has to merge anything. That is the design, not an implementation detail: the whole feature is pushUndo() then setContent(). One inotify instance in the tty shell, blocking in readVec through std.Io on a concurrent task started beside the pty readers — after loop.start(), so the forkpty ordering is untouched. It watches the containing DIRECTORY, because an editor rewrites by rename-over and a watch on the file would follow the dead inode, and it listens for CLOSE_WRITE rather than MODIFY, which is one event per finished writer and most of the debounce for free. Our own Save does not reach the undo stack: each watch keeps a hash of the bytes last seen on disk and save_file restamps it. A hash rather than mtime and size because the reload has to read the file anyway. The core stays sans-IO — one watch effect out, one file_changed event in, and a shell that cannot watch simply never sends the event, which is what the gui and the web platform do. Linux only; fanotify is what the build system uses and is rejected in a comment: it exists for thousands of directories across mounts, and sixteen panes of inotify is a third of the code with no kernel floor. New golden filewatch: edit without saving, overwrite from a shell in another column, watch it reload, undo, get the unsaved edit back. None moved.
