rzen 798a8bac73 The tier axis comes out of the git stack — compose unconditional, postures mode-driven
HistoryStore.compose(boardRoot📒) returns non-optional and runs for
every session — the nil the gate produced was the only nil it ever had.
makeHistoryProvider is a one-axis decision: git-mode boards bind the git
provider, everything else native, in every tier; Session.tier stays
recorded, dormant. BoardGitSection shrinks to the four mode postures
(.absent and .proPointer die, BoardGitNote and the .git probe with them);
every board carries all three popover tabs (BoardInfoTab.available
retired); the titlebar branch shows on any git-mode board; the settings
sheet and card History section stop reading tier. InertGitTests is
repurposed as UntouchedGitTests — the file layer still never opens .git,
now load-bearing for mode-none boards. The accessibility audit reaches the
settings sheet at last: the fixture board hosts it in every tier, so the
free-fixture disabled-row test becomes an open-and-audit test.

/// **The file layer never touches `.git`, stated against real bytes on disk** — every write and every
/// load the app makes leaves the whole `.git` subtree byte- and mtime-identical.
///
/// ### What this file used to be, and what it is now
///
/// It was written as the **inert-`.git` posture**'s byte-level proof (12-editions.md ▸ The free tier
/// and `.git`, as it then read: "any `.git` is inert … the app never reads history, never commits,
/// never touches `.git` in any way"). **PIVOT 2026-08-07** retired that posture outright — git left
/// the paywall, so a `.git` at a board root is *live* in every tier, detection runs at every open,
/// and the auto-committer writes into exactly the directory this file's fixture plants.
///
/// The tests survive the retirement unchanged because none of them ever composed a `HistoryStore` or
/// asserted anything about a tier: they drive `BoardWriter` and `BoardLoader` directly, and what they
/// pin is that **those layers are git-agnostic**. That claim is not only still true, it is now
/// load-bearing in two places the retired posture never reached:
///
/// - **A board nobody added git to** (mode `none`) is the one board the app manages no git for, for
/// good — git stays opt-in per board (06 ▸ Rules; 13-native-undo.md's header read through the
/// pivot). Nothing but this layer runs on such a board, so this layer's indifference *is* the
/// whole promise.
/// - **A `.git` the app does not manage** — a repo-nested board's ancestor, a clone dropped inside a
/// card folder (which the fixture below plants deliberately) — is left strictly alone by the same
/// indifference, whatever the board's own mode or the user's tier.
///
/// Two neighbouring claims are pinned elsewhere and are referenced, not repeated: `FolderWatcherTests`
/// ▸ ".git filtering" proves the watcher ignores churn under a `.git` at any depth, and
/// `BoardLoaderStrayTests.strayFilesAndHiddenEntriesAreIgnoredWithoutWarning` proves a `.git` at the
/// board root loads as an ordinary stray with no warning. Both are *input* claims: what the app does
/// with events and entries it is handed.
///
/// This file states the **output** claim: a full session of ordinary editing leaves every byte and
/// every mtime under `.git` exactly as it found them. It is asserted the only way
/// that is worth anything — by snapshotting the whole `.git` subtree from the filesystem before
/// the edits and re-reading it afterwards, never through the app's own read path
/// (`WriterTestSupport.swift`'s standing rule).
///
/// Note what "untouched" is worth as an mtime assertion specifically: bytes alone would pass even
/// if the app rewrote a file with identical content, and re-writing git's index with identical
/// bytes is exactly the kind of thing an accidental git dependency would do. The mtimes are the
/// assertion that nothing *opened for writing* down there at all.
// MARK: - Subtree snapshots
/// One entry under `.git`: its path relative to the board root, its bytes (nil for directories),
/// and its on-disk modification date. Directories carry an mtime too — a file created or removed
/// inside a directory moves *that directory's* mtime, so including them catches a write the
/// per-file comparison would miss because the file it added is not in the "before" set.
