What

The git-based directory-sync worker gained a substantial new code path around live syncing to a remote machine:

  • journals (its sync records) can now be "standing" as well as the previous "note"-based kind
  • checkouts can be "attached" to a live remote machine, tracked with a new attached flag and a bookkeepingOnBranch state
  • a new detach flow ends sync for specific reasons, such as branch_switched or machine_stopped, instead of only the previous generic "ended" flow
  • new fields foldedInstall, readsStanding, and a keepCheckoutPath marker (with a companion .offered file) track this state, letting an existing checkout be recognized as already attached instead of always redoing the initial setup
Why

This lets directory sync track and recover a live connection to a remote machine more precisely, distinguishing why a sync session ended and avoiding unnecessary rework when a checkout is already properly set up.
