Development record

The transcript store refuses every history verb, reads included, when its records leaf is owned by another uid, and says so with write wording: Resolve's owner check (internal/core/history/location.go:223) reports 'not owned by this account; refusing to write transcripts into it' even for history list. The realistic hit is a root container over a bind-mounted checkout with the local store declared, where reads and hook capture both refuse. Precedent runs both ways: rules/root.go and fsutil.go refuse foreign-owned reads, home.go admits a root-owned home. Fix-later shape from the review: on a foreign owner, skip the narrowing with a Note on a read and refuse only a write.

Remedy grounds (2026-09-29)

  • Why: CB1's two shapes, each with its change; the wording fault is real under both, so (a) still carries a fix. The ruling is unanswered and none is picked.
  • Sources (consulted 2026-09-29): git's safe.directory 'will refuse to even parse a Git config of a repository owned by someone else', reads included, and admits another owner only through an explicit declaration or the SUDO_UID case (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/Documentation/config/safe.adoc). That precedent supports (a) for data a later session reads back as context, and it is the evidence the ruling should weigh against (b)'s bind-mount convenience.
  • Rejected: admitting a root-owned leaf silently, which would read records any process with root could have planted.

Grounds

  • pursued: history list, show and capture over a foreign-owned records leaf each refuse with a message naming the owner and free of write wording (TestForeignOwnedRecordsLeafRefusalNamesTheOwner); a read verb that succeeded there, or any refusal mentioning a write, would show it wrong
