# scripts/bite --- prove a fix's tests BITE: run them against an older
# version of ONE file and succeed only if they FAIL there.
#
# 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 fail against <ref>'s version of
# <path> (the fix bites), 1 when they still pass (vacuous), 2 on
# usage/setup errors. The working-tree file is restored on every exit
# path, including interrupts.
#
# Caveat: a COMPILE error of the old tree also counts as "fails" —
# correct, but weaker evidence than a clean assertion failure; eyeball
# the output when the swapped file is Rust rather than Lua.
#
# 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`.
