# The index is published as an artifact behind a pointer, and that
# pointer propagates asynchronously after a version bump is merged.
# Measured on release day: an update run four minutes after the merge
# printed `index updated`, and the install then failed with
#
# package 'mcpp@<ver>' not found in the synced index
# (xim@artifact:<an older sha>, ...), synced 0 seconds ago
#
# Nothing had gone wrong. The update fetched the PREVIOUS artifact,
# and "synced 0 seconds ago" describes when it was fetched rather than
# what it contains — which is why the message reads as freshness.
#
# So this is not a retry around flakiness; it is the wait that a
# single update does not perform. A pin naming a version that was
# never published still fails, after the last attempt, and says which
# of the two situations it is.

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The cross-compilation is performed FROM three systems, not only from Linux.
#
# Every target in this repository is a cross target, which makes the host a
# separate axis from the target: the compiler, the target C library and the
# emulator are payloads mcpp resolves for whichever system it is running on.
# A package that has only ever been built from Linux is a package whose
# consumers must use Linux, and nothing in these sources says so.
#
# ⚠️ A TOOLCHAIN AXIS IS ABSENT HERE, AND THAT IS MEASURED RATHER THAN
# ASSUMED. The row for a bare-metal triple names its compiler, and the
# command-line override does not displace it: `--toolchain gcc@16.1.0` on a
# `riscv64-none-elf` build resolves llvm@22.1.8 regardless. A matrix over
# compiler families would therefore run the same compiler on every row and
# report coverage it does not have. The toolchain axis belongs where the
# choice is real — openkal, whose declarations are compiled by three families
# on three systems.
#
# ⚠️ BUILD ONLY, AND DELIBERATELY. Behaviour is asserted once, above, under an
# emulator. Booting the same image from three systems would be a statement
# about the emulator rather than about this package, and "the image does what
# the README says" does not become more true for having been observed from
# macOS.
