bun test: write .snap files and inline snapshot sources through a temporary file and a rename, parse a .snap file once and fail its tests with the parse error instead of re-reading it for every test, and skip the write when nothing was added. bun install: hold a per-project lock for the commands that edit a project, write package.json through a temporary file and a rename, keep .bin links that already point at the right target, and resolve the root package.json path by name.

…p before assertions The CI runner points every process at one install cache, so two of these projects filled the same cache entry at the same time on Windows. That race is a different one; the tests now share one cache that is filled before they run.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed this revision and the automated bug-hunt found nothing new; the earlier inline comments (test cleanup ordering, isASAN RSS branch, undrained pipe, lock-path canonicalization, realpath fallback) have all been addressed or answered. Given the scope — a new cross-process flock/LockFileEx primitive wired through every install/add/remove/pm subcommand, plus write_file_atomically replacing the in-place writers for package.json, .snap, and inline-snapshot source files — a human pass on the locking design and Windows path is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
write_file_atomically: realpath → open-for-write gate → tmpfile+rename, mode preservation, tmp cleanup on error.lock_project: realpath'd project dir hashed to.locks/<hex>.lock,BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIRreentry guard, best-effort fall-through.- Snapshot rewrite:
dirty/unparseablegating, one-time parse of a torn file, per-file error recovery inwrite_inline_snapshots. - Tests: forced-order held-remove case, shared-cache warmup,
await usingon held children,isASANRSS branch.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
23 files across src/sys (new flock/FileLockMode/LockFileEx FFI, new File::write_file_atomically), src/install (project lock in PackageManager::init, Subcommand::always_edits_project, workspace-cache invalidation after locking, O_EXCL package.json creation, idempotent .bin symlinks), src/runtime/cli (every package.json writer converted to atomic writes; pm trust/migrate/audit fix take the lock), and src/runtime/test_runner (.snap and inline-snapshot source now written via tmpfile+rename; a torn .snap is parsed once and every test fails with the file path instead of re-reading it per test). ~470 lines of new tests across two new files and one extended file.
Security risks
None identified. The lock file lives in the install cache (not the project), is opened O_RDONLY|O_CREAT, holds no data, and flock is advisory on POSIX. BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIR only lets a child skip waiting on a lock its parent already holds — it does not grant any capability. write_file_atomically resolves the target with realpath before writing next to it, so a symlinked package.json is replaced at its real location rather than turning the symlink into a regular file; the O_WRONLY open before the temp write preserves the existing "unwritable target is reported by name" behavior.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is not a mechanical change: it introduces a new cross-process synchronization scheme that gates every editing package-manager subcommand, adds a new cross-platform syscall wrapper, and changes how the test runner persists snapshots. The design choices (lock keyed by realpath'd project dir hash in the cache directory; nested-install passthrough via env var; which subcommands lock and which only write atomically; .snap no longer opened at all when unchanged) each have user-visible consequences and interact with at least four open PRs the description names (#37851, #33992, #38974, #36679).
Other factors
Two prior automated review passes left five inline nits; commits f35ba95, 4ed5566, and 4f6f6a4 addressed or answered all of them (the realpath Err(_) fallback was kept with a justification I find reasonable — the follow-up O_WRONLY open is the real gate and Windows realpath needs read access the write path does not). The current bug-hunt pass found nothing. CI shows one unrelated test/bake/deinitialization.test.ts segfault on Windows x64. The PR description enumerates which suites were run on debug builds and which known-failing debug-only tests are pre-existing on main. Given the breadth and the design surface, this should not be auto-approved.
|
For the human pass on the lock design and on Windows: the design is in the Background section and in the "Which commands lock" paragraph of the notes. The Windows run was a debug build of 4ed5566 on Windows Server 2019 x64.
4f6f6a4 changed a comment only. The Windows x64 and Windows aarch64 lanes of build 101433 ran the same files and passed them. |
|
I had a branch for the same writers ( What my branch had that this one does not is in #39701, stacked on this branch: the Two things I saw while running this branch:
|
…e root path from the project root write_file_atomically names the temporary file with FileSystem::tmpname, so the name does not grow with the name of the target. When the directory takes no temporary file, or the rename over the target fails (a Windows volume without FileRenameInformationEx, a target another process holds open), the file is written in place, as before. A write that failed is not retried in place. The new file gets the owner of the old one as well as its mode. ROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATH is built from top_level_dir, the shape #39361 uses. The package.json opened during the walk up is closed once it has served as the check that the file can be written to. The two-writer .snap test starts the long process only after the short one has loaded the .snap file. Before, a slow short process could load the file the long one had already written.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed this PR again after 35bb9d3 and found no bugs. Given the scope — a new cross-process locking design in PackageManager::init, new flock/LockFileEx syscall wrappers, write_file_atomically with an in-place fallback, and stated sequencing against several open PRs (#37851, #33029, #38974, #39701) — a human sign-off on the lock design and merge ordering is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
write_file_atomically: temp-file cleanup on every exit, mode/owner preservation viafchown/fchmod, and the new in-place fallback when tmp create or rename fails — addresses the non-NTFSFILE_RENAME_POSIX_SEMANTICSconcern raised at 00:12.lock_project: now hashesrealpath(top_level_dir), so the earlier Windows path-case nit is addressed;BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIRinheritance checked against the nested-bun addpostinstall test.- Snapshot writer:
dirty/unparseablestate — an unparseable.snapis left untouched and not rewritten; a run that adds nothing no longer rewrites the file. - The flaky ".snap file has the entries of exactly one process" test now waits on a
LOADEDmarker before starting the long writer, addressing the 3/10 failure reported at 00:12.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
24 files changed across src/sys/ (new flock on POSIX + LockFileEx on Windows, new File::write_file_atomically with realpath resolution, mode/owner preservation, and in-place fallback), src/install/PackageManager* (new lock_project taking a per-project flock in <cache>/.locks/<hash>.lock, BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIR inheritance for lifecycle scripts, removal of the held root_package_json_file fd, ROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATH now built from top_level_dir instead of get_fd_path), src/runtime/test_runner/snapshot.rs (dirty tracking, unparseable-file handling parsed once with a named error, atomic write of .snap and inline-snapshot source), eight CLI writers converted to write_file_atomically, bin.rs idempotent symlink keep, and ~470 lines of new tests.
Security risks
None identified. The lock file lives in the install cache (which every install already writes to), is opened O_RDONLY|O_CREAT with mode 0644, and holds no data. write_file_atomically resolves symlinks via realpath before writing, so a symlinked package.json is replaced at its target rather than the link — verified this is intentional (dotfiles use case in the PR notes). No new user-controlled paths reach syscalls without going through existing path handling.
Level of scrutiny
High. This introduces a cross-process locking protocol that every mutating package-manager command now depends on, adds two platform-specific syscall wrappers, and changes the write semantics of .snap files, inline-snapshot source files, and every package.json writer. The design has been iterated in-thread (canonical path hashing, in-place fallback, fchown), and the author has run it on Windows and Linux with the listed test suites, but the interaction with #37851 (bunx-level lock), #33029 (rename fallback), #38974/#36679 (.snap write changes), and the stacked #39701 means merge ordering is a maintainer decision.
Other factors
All prior review threads are resolved. My earlier inline nits (test cleanup ordering, isASAN RSS branch, lock-path canonicalization) were addressed in 4ed5566 and 35bb9d3; the realpath Err(_) fallback was intentionally kept with a comment explaining the Windows read-open case. robobun's 00:12 report of test flakiness and the non-NTFS rename regression both appear addressed by 35bb9d3 (LOADED marker + write_file_in_place fallback). One prior test-hygiene nit (undrained stdout: "pipe" in the long-filename test) remains, but stdout there is a few bytes and cannot fill the pipe buffer. This is well-tested and carefully reasoned, but too large and design-bearing for auto-approval.
…anism The temporary file is skipped for EACCES and EPERM from its creation, and the rename is retried in place for EACCES, EPERM, EINVAL, ENOTSUP, EBUSY and ETXTBSY. Every other error is returned with the old file intact, so a full disk no longer empties the file as the in-place write did. Tests: the owner test also checks the edit landed, the long name test drains stdout, and a non-root test edits a package.json in a read-only directory.

State after 4182ec7, for whoever picks this up:

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed the latest revision (4182ec7) and didn't find any new bugs — the earlier inline nits (release-file cleanup ordering, isASAN RSS branch, undrained stdout, lock-key canonicalization, realpath errno handling) have all been addressed. Because this introduces a new cross-process lock primitive plus an atomic-write helper whose fallback semantics were reworked twice during review, and the description lists half a dozen open PRs that overlap the same files, a maintainer sign-off on the design (which commands lock, the in-place-fallback errno set, and the merge order with #39403/#37851/#33029) would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed
write_file_atomically: temp-create and rename failures now fall back to in-place only onEACCES/EPERM/EINVAL/ENOTSUP/EBUSY/ETXTBSY;write_allfailure returns without touching the target;fchown/fchmodremain best-effort (non-root can't chown), which seems correct.lock_project: now hashesrealpath(top_level_dir), so Windows path-case and junction spellings map to one lock file;BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIRinheritance checked against the lifecycle-script test.- Snapshot refactor:
.snapopened read-only, written only whendirty, unparseable files parsed once and left untouched; the two-writer test now sequences on aLOADEDmarker. - Remaining open thread on
file.rs— 4182ec7 addresses its core ask (gated fallback); the ignoredfchownresult is the only piece left and is defensible.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
24 files across four subsystems: a new bun_sys::flock (POSIX flock(2) and Windows LockFileEx) plus FileLockMode; File::write_file_atomically (realpath → open-for-write probe → tmpfile → fchown/fchmod → rename, with a gated in-place fallback); a project-level advisory lock in PackageManager taken at the end of init for editing subcommands and inherited by lifecycle scripts via BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIR; a rework of snapshot.rs so .snap and inline-snapshot source files are read once, tracked as dirty/unparseable, and replaced atomically instead of written in place. Nine package.json write sites (add/remove, pm pkg/version/trust, update -i, pnpm migration, bunx cache reset) are converted to the atomic writer; bin.rs gains a readlink-and-keep path for idempotent .bin links; ROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATH is now derived from top_level_dir rather than get_fd_path of a possibly-unlinked fd. ~470 lines of new tests cover concurrent add/remove (timing-forced and free), concurrent installs, nested lifecycle-script installs, concurrent .snap and inline-snapshot writers, unparseable-.snap memory bounds, and mode/owner preservation.
Security risks
None identified. The lock file lives under the install cache, is opened read-only, holds no data, and is never deleted (so no unlinked-file lock races). write_file_atomically resolves symlinks before writing, and attempt_to_create_package_json_and_open now uses O_EXCL. No user-controlled input reaches the new syscall paths beyond what the previous in-place writers already accepted.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is not a mechanical change: it adds a cross-process serialization primitive to the package manager, picks which subcommands take it (always_edits_project vs. pm pkg/pm version deliberately excluded to avoid git-hook self-deadlock), and defines an atomic-write fallback matrix that was iterated on three times during review (unconditional → gated on tmp-create/rename failure → gated on a specific errno set in 4182ec7). The snapshot refactor changes when .snap files are opened, whether they're rewritten when unchanged, and what happens on parse failure. Each of these is a design decision a maintainer should ratify, and the PR description explicitly enumerates six overlapping open PRs (#39403, #37851, #38745, #36701, #38974/#36679, #33029) whose merge order matters.
Other factors
The bug hunter found nothing this run. My five earlier inline nits are all resolved in the current diff: lock_project now realpaths before hashing; the realpath Err(_) fallback is documented and backstopped by the following open; the RSS assertion branches on isASAN; the held-process tests write release before asserting and use await using; the long-name test drains stdout. One CodeRabbit thread on file.rs is not marked resolved, but 4182ec7 implements its core request (fallback only on the errno set that means "the mechanism is refused"); the residual — ignored fchown/fchmod — is intentional because a non-root writer can't chown to another uid and the caller wants the write to succeed regardless. Test coverage is thorough and the PR notes list which suites were run on Linux and Windows, but the cross-platform surface (Windows LockFileEx mandatory locks, exFAT rename semantics pending #33029) and the stated PR-ordering dependencies are exactly the kind of thing a maintainer should sign off on rather than an automated approval.
Eight bun patch of different packages in one project, then eight bun patch --commit: without the project lock the install pass of one process links a package that another process has just copied out of the cache back to the cache, so the user's edit lands in the cache, and the commits drop each other's package.json entries (1 of 8 kept, 5 of 8 edits in the cache here). Eight bun link in one package directory: without the lock they remove each other's entry in the global directory and some fail with EEXIST.
The first start of the registry on a fresh Windows machine exceeded the 5 second hook default.
|
023d98c and ae19208 add two shapes to
Both pass on this branch on Linux (4 runs of the file) and on a Windows debug build (8 pass, the bunx case skipped as before). The hook that starts the registry keeps the default timeout, like the 31 other files that start it the same way (c871f20; the slow first start I saw was a machine that had just been provisioned, 1.5 seconds once warm). 797ba07 makes the file remove the temporary directories it creates itself (the cache root, and the bunx case's directories). |

The slow first start was a just-provisioned machine; the 31 other files that start this registry in beforeAll use the default, and this file passed on the Windows lanes with it before.
init cleared the workspace package.json cache after taking the lock, but the commands that take the lock themselves (audit fix, pm trust, pm migrate) did not, so one of them started in a workspace package could edit the copy it read before it waited. The clear now happens wherever the lock is taken. The held tests no longer install the project first: the held bun remove is the first install. Two processes less per test.

9045e0c, from the review note on audit_command.rs: the clear of the workspace package.json cache now lives in lock_project itself, right after the lock is taken, instead of next to the call in init. The commands that take the lock themselves (audit fix, pm trust, pm migrate) were missing it, so one of them started in a workspace package could have edited the copy it read before waiting. The held tests also lost their separate first install (the held bun remove is the first install now), which makes each of them two processes lighter. Build 101552 on the previous head was 178 of 179 jobs green, the red one being the pre-existing deinitialization crash on Windows x64 again. a344450 also removes the Windows rewind of the package.json opened in init, which served the pm trust read that this branch replaced (review note on PackageManager.rs). CI: build 101559 on the current head (a344450) passed all 179 jobs. No review threads are open. |
The seek served bun pm trust, which read the root package.json through this file. It reads it by path now.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed this revision and the automated pass found no new issues — the two findings from the previous run (the workspace cache clear at explicit lock_project() sites, and the dead Windows seek_to(0)) are addressed in 9045e0c and a344450. Because this introduces a cross-process locking design (which commands lock, lifecycle-script inheritance via BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIR, best-effort fallback semantics) and overlaps with several open install PRs whose merge order is a maintainer call, a human look at the lock design is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
write_file_atomicallyfallback error set and fd/tmpfile cleanup on every exit path — tmpfile is unlinked on both write and rename failure, fd closed viaFileDrop.lock_project: realpath canonicalization before hashing, the env-var reentrancy guard for lifecycle scripts, and that the workspace cache clear now covers all callers.- The
snapshot.rsrefactor: unparseable-file handling parses once and leaves the file untouched;dirtyflag prevents no-op rewrites. flockon POSIX (EINTR retry, EWOULDBLOCK →Ok(false)) andLockFileExon Windows (LOCK_VIOLATION →Ok(false)).
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR touches 24 files across src/sys/, src/install/, src/runtime/cli/, src/runtime/test_runner/, and adds ~450 lines of tests. It introduces three mechanisms: (1) File::write_file_atomically — write-tempfile-then-rename with mode/owner preservation and a narrowed in-place fallback; (2) bun_sys::flock / FileLockMode — a cross-platform advisory whole-file lock (POSIX flock, Windows LockFileEx); (3) PackageManager::lock_project — a per-project-root exclusive lock keyed by wyhash(realpath(top_level_dir)) under <cache>/.locks/, held from init until process exit and inherited by lifecycle-script children via BUN_INTERNAL_INSTALL_LOCK_DIR. It rewires ~10 package.json writers and the .snap/inline-snapshot writers onto the atomic write, refactors snapshot.rs to parse a broken .snap once and report its path, makes bin.rs keep an existing symlink whose target already matches, and removes the root_package_json_file fd from PackageManager (its only reader now reads by path).
Security risks
None identified. The lock file is opened O_RDONLY | O_CREAT under the install cache directory (user-controlled via BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR), never written to, and never deleted; a failure to lock degrades to the pre-PR unlocked behavior rather than failing closed. write_file_atomically resolves the target via realpath before writing, so a symlinked package.json is replaced at its target rather than replacing the symlink — this preserves prior semantics and does not introduce a new symlink-following surface (the previous in-place O_WRONLY open followed the symlink too). The tempfile name comes from FileSystem::tmpname (random), and is created in the same directory as the target.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is a cross-cutting concurrency/design change to the package manager and test runner, not a mechanical fix. The lock policy — which subcommands take it, that --dry-run skips it, that pm version/pm pkg do not lock (their writes are atomic but not serialized against a concurrent bun add), that lifecycle scripts inherit via an env var compared by string equality of realpath — is a design decision a maintainer should sign off on. The write_file_atomically fallback errno set (EACCES/EPERM on create; EACCES/EPERM/EINVAL/ENOTSUP/EBUSY/ETXTBSY on rename) was narrowed in review and is now well-justified in the thread, but the best-effort fchown/fchmod and the choice not to fsync are policy calls.
Other factors
The PR has been through four rounds of automated review feedback (mine and CodeRabbit's), all resolved with follow-up commits through a344450. CI build 101508 was 178/179 green with the one red lane a pre-existing unrelated failure. The PR description explicitly enumerates overlap with #39403, #37851, #39361, #38745, #36701, #39701, #33992, #38974, #36679 and states the merge order is a maintainer call — that alone puts this outside what an automated approver should sign off on. The new tests are thorough (held-process ordering, workspace variant, patch/link concurrency, unparseable .snap memory bound with ASAN branch, mode/owner preservation, read-only-directory fallback) and the description records manual verification on Linux and Windows debug builds.
Keep this PR to the reader. parse_file prints the log the way the inline snapshot writer does and returns ParseError, which the matcher already reports. The rejected file's buffer is dropped in place. The write path is left as it is: #39689 replaces it.

Problem
bun testruns of one file write its.snap, and its inline snapshot source, in place. The tail of the longer write survives and the file no longer parses. EverytoMatchSnapshot()then re-reads the broken.snap: 300 tests took 234 MB, and each said onlyFailed to snapshot value.bun addandbun removestarted together both rewrite package.json and bun.lock. The last writer drops the other edit. Both exit 0.bunx pkg@ver, for example) fill one node_modules at once:Failed to link x: EEXIST, scripts run N times.Fix
File::write_file_atomically(src/sys/file.rs) writes a temporary file and renames it over the target, and gives the new file the mode and owner of the old one. Where the directory takes no temporary file or no rename, it writes in place, as before. The.snap, inline snapshot and package.json writers use it..snapis parsed once, and its tests reportFailed to parse snapshot file: <path>.bin.rskeeps a.binlink that already has the right target.ROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATHis built from the project root, not from an fd that a rename left behind.flockon<install cache>/.locks/<hash of the root>at the end ofinit(PackageManager::lock_project).

The inline source test and the bunx test pass or fail by timing on the old code. The two-writer.snaptest starts the long process only after the short one reports that it has loaded the.snapfile (a marker file written by its second test); without that, a slow short process loaded the file the long one had already written and failed its comparisons (3 runs in 10 on a loaded debug machine). The mode and owner tests inbun-pm-pkg.test.tsand the long name test innew-snapshot.test.tspass on the old code too: they pin behavior the in-place writes had. All processes inconcurrent-processes.test.tsshare one package cache that is filled before the tests run: the CI runner points every process of a test file at one cache, and two projects filling the same cache entry at the same time is a different race (#33884 fixes it on Windows); the project lock does not serialize different projects on purpose.package.json writers converted:

The lock directory comes fromfetch_cache_directory_path, soBUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR, bunfig and the default all work, also when the package cache is disabled. The lock file is opened read-only so a shared cache directory works for every user.bun_sys::flocktakesFileLockMode::{Shared, Exclusive}; onlyExclusiveis used here.write_file_atomicallyresolves the path withrealpathfirst so a symlinked package.json (a global package.json kept in dotfiles, for example) is replaced at its target, and opens the existing file for writing before it writes anything, which keepstest/cli/install/bun-add-filter.test.ts("an unwritable target is reported by name") passing and gives the mode and owner to copy. The owner matters forbun addas root in a bind mount of a user's project, which used to leave package.json owned by the user (bun-pm-pkg.test.tschecks the mode, and the owner when the tests run as root). The temporary file is named byFileSystem::tmpname, so a.snapfile whose name is already 255 bytes long still gets written (new-snapshot.test.tshas that case). When the directory refuses the temporary file (EACCES, EPERM), or the rename over the target fails with EACCES, EPERM, EINVAL, ENOTSUP, EBUSY or ETXTBSY, the helper writes the target in place, which is what every one of these writers did before: this covers Windows volumes withoutFileRenameInformationEx(EINVAL, #10169, which #33029 fixes in the rename itself for the lockfile), a target that another program holds open withoutFILE_SHARE_DELETE(EBUSY or EPERM), and a writable file in a directory the user may not write to (bun-pm-pkg.test.tshas that case; it is skipped as root, and checked by hand as a non-root user here). Every other error, including a write into the temporary file that fails, is returned with the old file as it was: underulimit -f 0,bun pm pkg setprintsFailed to write package.json: EFBIG, exits 1, and leaves no temporary file.fchownandfchmodon the new file are best effort: a user who may write a file owned by someone else cannot give it back, and the edit used to work for that user. Checked as a non-root user: a read-only.snapthat gains an entry fails withEACCES: ... Failed to write snapshot file: <path>, and a read-only.snapthat gains nothing passes (it used to fail at open). Hard links to the old file keep the old contents. The helper does not fsync: the writers it replaces did not either, and the problem here is what other processes see, not what survives a power loss.root_package_json_fileis removed fromPackageManager:bun pm trustwas its only reader.initstill opens the file during the walk up, as the check that it can be written to, and closes it right after (the Windows rewind of that file, which served thepm trustread, is gone too).ROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATHis built fromtop_level_dirandpackage.json(the shape #39361 uses, for its own reason) instead ofget_fd_pathof that open file, which on Linux reportspackage.json (deleted)once another process has renamed a new file over it, for example while this process waits for the lock.Related open PRs. #39403 folds the open install PRs into one branch and touches 15 of the 20 source files changed here; of the changes folded there, #37851 carries the same
sys::flockas this branch and #39361 buildsROOT_PACKAGE_JSON_PATHthe same way (those hunks resolve to either side), and #38745 also removesroot_package_json_file, so it overlaps with this branch ininitand inpm_trusted_command.rs; the project lock, the atomic package.json writes and the snapshot changes exist only here. #36701 makes the same change tobin.rsas this branch for the main link site (this branch covers the three sites, forEEXIST); itsEPERM/EACCESarms for a read-only.bin(#14736) are a two-line addition on top of either. #39701 is stacked on this branch: it convertsbun init, sets an exit code when the.snapwrite fails, and tests writes that fail; #39666 is its companion for an empty package.json. #37851 adds abunx-level lock with a completion handshake for dist-tag installs, which pass--forceand can still reinstall under a bunx that already runs the tree; this branch serializes the children and keeps the bin links, and itssys::flockhas the same signature as the one in #37851. #33992 adds a thirdflockwrapper for a JS API. #38974 and #36679 change the.snapwrite insnapshot.rstoo (write back andftruncate); the rename here covers theirO_TRUNCconcern, so whichever lands second keeps its per-file and bail changes only. #37384 fixes the debug-only node shim directory race that makesnode -p should work in postinstall scriptsandensureTempNodeGypScript worksfail in debug builds on main; those, thenpm_config_user_agentdebug version suffix inbunx.test.ts, the debug error return trace inbun-link.test.ts, and the color-dependenterror snapshotstest fail here without this branch as well.Other suites run with the debug build, under
