# scripts/bite --- prove a fix's tests BITE: run them against the
# working tree (they must PASS), then against an older version of ONE
# file (they must FAIL).
#
# scripts/bite <ref> <path> [cargo-test-args...]
#
# Example (the PR #111 round-1 shape):
# scripts/bite HEAD~1 builtin/runtime/editops.lua \
# --test editops_acceptance -- capitalize trim_on_save_unexpected
#
# Exit status: 0 when the named tests pass now and fail against
# <ref>'s version of <path> (the fix bites), 1 when they still pass
# there (vacuous), 2 on usage/setup errors, 3 when the POSITIVE
# CONTROL fails. The working-tree file is restored on every exit path,
# including interrupts.
#
# THE POSITIVE CONTROL, and why it is not optional. Before this
# existed the script ran only the swapped tree, so it could not
# distinguish "my fix is load-bearing" from "my test is broken": a
# typo, an unrelated compile break, or a filter that matches nothing
# all made the swapped run fail, and a failing swapped run was the
# only thing it checked. It printed `bite: OK` and certified nothing.
# So the control asserts two things, because passing alone is not
# enough — `cargo test` with a filter matching zero tests exits 0, and
# then a compile error in the old tree would still read as OK:
#
# * the named tests PASS against the working tree, and
# * at least one test actually RAN.
#
# COMPILE errors of the old tree still count as "fails", and that is
# correct but weaker than a clean assertion failure --- the swapped
# file may simply not build against the current tree. The script now
# says which kind it saw instead of leaving it to be eyeballed. Prefer
# an assertion failure; treat a compile failure as a prompt to narrow
# the swap to a file that compiles both ways.
#
# Why this exists: bite-verification is step 4 of the working method,
# and the obvious shortcut --- git stash --- is a trap here. The stash
# namespace is REPO-GLOBAL: shared across every worktree and with
# humans, so a scripted push/pop can collide with (or pop!) someone
# else's stashed work. This helper never touches git state beyond a
# read-only `git show`, and it restores the working file from a
# mktemp copy --- NOT from git, so uncommitted work in <path> is
# preserved.
