I only noticed that there was a newer version when running `cargo
install --path .`, which resulted in warnings about deprecated
functions. There's no other reason I'm aware of to upgrade now.
I'm preparing to publish an early version before someone takes the
name(s) on crates.io. "jj" has been taken by a seemingly useless
project, but "jujube" and "jujube-lib" are still available, so let's
use those.
I have never run into this being a problem in practice, but this
change is a stepping stone for two things:
1. Using exponential backoff for other locks (in particular the
working copy).
2. Making the Git store write a ref for conflict objects, so they
don't get GC'd (I want to do that before even I start dogfooding).
I had tried to generate the protobuf code at build time many months
ago, but decided against it because it slowed down the build too
much. I didn't realize there was the
"cargo:rerun-if-changed=<filename>" feature that time. Given that that
exists, it seems like an obvious win to generate the source code at
build time.
I put the generated sources in `$OUT_DIR` (where [1] says they should
be), then include them in the `protos` module by using the `include!`
macro. The biggest problem with that is that I couldn't get IntelliJ
to understand it, even after enabling the experimental features
described in [2].
