mesh-delivery
The mesh-delivery module of the mesh catalogue: claims the seat mesh-delivery.
Files it does not know
Each directory or archive this module declares says how it treats a file it did not write (ADR 0422, ADR 0416).
${dir:state}: everything in it is the program's; the mesh moves nothing out (ADR 0422 §2).
A backup that failed before the send
The controller backs up the data of the modules a delivery moves before it asks or sends anything (ADR 0404). When its
walk's record, in plan-moved, names a backup that failed or stayed silent and nothing of the plan was sent, the
delivery goes from delivering to held (the observed row backup failed); the held reason names the machine, the
module and the backup's words, and the pull request's comment shows it. The hold does not lift by itself. release
of such a delivery asks the controller (delivery-backups-again) to take the backups again and the delivery goes on
delivering; a record from before the controller cleared the failure does not hold it again. A held delivery already
ends as covered or delivered when a later merge covers it.
