- Implemented a caching mechanism for default properties per class in `rbx_dom_lua/init.lua`, allowing for efficient retrieval of encoded default values, including inherited defaults.
- Updated the matching logic in `Reconciler/matching.lua` to account for properties present only on the Studio side, ensuring accurate comparisons against default values during reconciliation.
- Added new test cases to validate the handling of default-omitted properties, enhancing the robustness of the reconciliation process.
These changes improve the efficiency and accuracy of property matching, addressing issues related to default values in the reconciliation workflow.
- Introduced a new `trueEquals` function in `trueEquals.lua` for shared value equality checks, improving consistency between `diff.lua` and `matching.lua`.
- Removed redundant equality logic from `diff.lua` and `matching.lua`, streamlining the codebase.
- Updated path handling in various test snapshots to ensure correct reference values, enhancing the accuracy of reconciliation tests.
- Implemented a post-processing step in `syncback` to fix `Rojo_Ref_*` attribute paths with correct dedup suffixes, improving path resolution.
These changes enhance the clarity and efficiency of the Reconciler's equality checks and path handling, paving the way for improved project management and user experience.
- Updated test descriptions in `diff.spec.lua` and `diff.stress.spec.lua` to reflect changes in behavior regarding duplicate-named children in both real and virtual DOM contexts.
- Adjusted assertions to ensure that duplicate-named children are correctly removed or added based on the new matching logic.
- Refactored `hydrate.lua` and `matching.lua` to streamline the matching process by removing unnecessary parameters, enhancing clarity and maintainability.
- Updated metadata references in various test files to include the `.model.json5` extension for consistency in path handling.
These changes improve the accuracy of reconciliation tests and enhance the overall robustness of the Reconciler's path handling logic.
- Introduced a comprehensive rewrite of the matching algorithm, replacing the previous multi-pass approach with a recursive change-count scoring function and greedy assignment strategy.
- Updated the `hydrate.lua` and `matching.lua` files to utilize the new algorithm, enhancing the efficiency of instance matching during hydration.
- Documented the new algorithm's structure, including fast-paths for Ref pins and (Name, ClassName) grouping, which significantly improve matching accuracy and performance.
- Ensured that the new implementation maintains compatibility with existing systems while providing a more robust solution for handling ambiguous instances.
These changes enhance the clarity and efficiency of the reconciliation process, paving the way for improved project management and user experience.
- Introduced a comprehensive audit plan detailing critical issues, code quality items, and test coverage gaps identified in the Ambiguous Path Handling feature.
- Documented specific todos addressing various correctness and performance issues, including case sensitivity, path formatting, and dead code removal.
- Established standards for round-trip identity and CLI syncback parity to ensure consistent behavior across the system.
These changes enhance the clarity and accountability of the auditing process, paving the way for improved feature reliability and maintainability.
- Updated the `encodeInstance.stress.spec.lua` tests to eliminate checks for skipped counts, as duplicates are now included alongside unique children.
- Adjusted expectations in the tests to reflect the new behavior of the encoding process, ensuring accurate validation of encoded instances.
- Removed legacy assertions related to skipped counts, streamlining the test cases for better clarity and maintainability.
- Finalized the transition from a duplicate-name blacklist system to a comprehensive 3-pass matching algorithm for both syncback and forward operations, enhancing the handling of ambiguous paths.
- Integrated a new `matching.lua` module to facilitate instance matching during hydration, utilizing unique name matching, class name narrowing, and structural fingerprinting.
- Updated various components, including `ChangeBatcher`, `Reconciler`, and `snapshot` modules, to leverage the new matching logic, ensuring robust file management and improved performance.
- Removed legacy duplicate handling code and streamlined the encoding process for instances with duplicate names.
These changes significantly enhance the clarity and efficiency of file operations, paving the way for improved project management and user experience.
