Every backup writes vaultik-destination.txt at the destination root.
While the local index holds snapshots stored there, a destination
without it is not present: snapshot create refuses before writing,
prune and snapshot purge fail, and snapshot list and snapshot remove
act as for a destination that cannot be listed. snapshot create and
snapshot remove check it first. remote nuke deletes the marker last.
The file:// backend never creates its destination directory, which
protects a directory on a removable volume, not a mount point.
Tests back up into directories that exist; fixtures for a written
destination carry the marker.
Judgement call: the marker is rewritten on every backup.
Deviation: for the complexity limit, two blocks moved, unchanged, into
snapshotNamesToCreate and confirmRemoveSnapshot.
Model: opus-5-5
snapshot list worked out NEW CHUNK SIZE from the snapshot's file rows. A
file's row is shared by every snapshot that lists it and rewritten when
the file changes, so a snapshot whose change was a modified file showed
0 B, and older snapshots' figures moved after later backups.
The scanner now totals the size of the chunks it stores that were not
stored before (the chunks chunk_count counts), the backup writes that
total to a new snapshots column, new_chunk_size, and snapshot list reads
it.
Judgement call: the figure is fixed when the backup runs, so removing an
earlier snapshot no longer raises a later snapshot's figure.
