chore(deps): move git2 ownership into tinycortex

[senamakel]

Summary

• Remove the git2 dependency from this crate. It had exactly one consumer in the whole repo — a single git2::Repository::open in tests/memory_artifacts_e2e.rs — and nothing in src/ touched it.
• memory-git no longer carries dep:git2; it forwards tinycortex/git-diff, tinycortex/wiki-git and tinymemory-core/memory-git, which is how the libgit2 cohort already entered the graph.
• The e2e test reads the wiki ledger back through the new tinycortex::git2 re-export, so the assertion uses the very binding that wrote it.
• Advances the vendor/tinycortex and vendor/tinymemory gitlinks onto the two companion PRs.
• No behaviour change and no change to what a memory-git build links.

Problem

TinyCortex owns every libgit2 call in the memory stack: the diff ledger (memory::diff), the wiki mirror (memory::store::content::wiki_git), and the persona git-history reader. This crate holds the memory_diff RPC surface, the agent tool and the gate around them — it never opens a repository.

So the git2 entry in [dependencies] was a declaration with no use behind it in src/. tinymemory-core had the same defect one level down: memory-git = ["dep:git2", …] with no git2 reference anywhere in its sources either (every mention there is a doc comment).

That is not merely untidy. Each redundant declaration is another pin free to drift off tinycortex's, and git2 sets links = "git2" — two majors in one graph is a hard cargo error, not a warning, surfacing as an unrelatable native link conflict. The manifest also misstated where the most expensive native build in the tree enters the graph, which matters to anyone reading it to price the gate.

Solution

Three coordinated changes, one per repo:

1. tinycortex (feat(lib): re-export git2 for hosts that inspect a ledger tinycortex#147) re-exports its git2 under #[cfg(any(feature = "git-diff", feature = "wiki-git"))], giving hosts a supported way to inspect a ledger this crate wrote without pinning their own copy.
2. tinymemory (chore(core): drop the unused git2 dependency tinymemory#14) drops the unused dep:git2 from tinymemory-core.
3. Here: drop the [dependencies] entry and dep:git2 from the gate, and point the test at tinycortex::git2::Repository.

At each removal site I left a comment saying not to add it back and why, rather than a silent deletion — the next person to want git2::Repository in a test needs to find the re-export, not re-add the dependency.

Doc updates that were made stale by the move: the memory-git row in AGENTS.md now records that this crate declares no git2 and that test code goes through the re-export; the tinycortex dependency comment no longer claims a host git2 pin is being aligned (there is none left to align).

Impact

• Runtime: none. git2 was already in the graph via tinycortex whenever memory-git was on, so cargo unified the two — the same libgit2 is linked, by one parent instead of three.
• Cargo.lock: git2 is gone from openhuman's and tinymemory-core's dependency lists and now appears only under tinycortex.
• Dependency shed: unchanged. With the gate off, git2 / libgit2-sys / libz-sys are absent from the graph exactly as before — cargo tree -i git2 errors with "did not match any packages". scripts/check-kernel-floor.sh passes, no ratchet movement.
• Security/migration: none.

Validation

• cargo check --no-default-features --features memory-git --lib — clean.
• cargo check --no-default-features --lib (gate off) — clean.
• cargo check --no-default-features --features "$(bash scripts/ci/product-features.sh)" --lib — clean.
• cargo test --no-default-features --features memory-git --test memory_artifacts_e2e — 2 passed, including summary_ingest_records_summary_only_git_history_and_timestamped_read_tags, which is the test that reads the ledger back.
• cargo tree -e normal -i git2 --features memory-git — tinycortex is the only source; this crate is no longer a direct parent.
• scripts/check-kernel-floor.sh — "kernel floor OK — every profile within its ratchet".
• node scripts/ci/check-feature-forwarding.mjs — passes; the shell still forwards memory-git by name, unchanged.
• cargo fmt --check — clean, here and in tinycortex.

Pre-existing failure, unrelated to this PR, called out per contributing guidance: cargo check --tests on the whole crate fails on tests/live_routing_e2e.rs, which imports build_core_http_router without declaring required-features = ["http-server"]. It fails identically on main. I left it alone rather than widen this PR, but it means that target silently does not build under any profile lacking http-server. Worth a follow-up.

Submission Checklist

• Tests added or updated (happy path + at least one failure / edge case) — N/A: no new behaviour. The existing memory_artifacts_e2e coverage is retargeted onto the re-export and still asserts both the positive path (summary markdown tracked, commit trailers present, read-pointer tags resolve) and the negative one (raw/not-tracked.md must be absent from git history). It passes.
• Diff coverage ≥ 80% — N/A: the changed lines are manifest entries, comments and one test-only import path. No product code changed, so there are no coverable changed lines.
• Coverage matrix updated — N/A: behaviour-only change (in fact not even that — no feature rows added, removed or renamed; memory-git keeps its name, gate semantics and off-state).
• All affected feature IDs from the matrix are listed under ## Related — N/A: no matrix rows affected.
• No new external network dependencies introduced — confirmed; this PR only removes a dependency.
• Manual smoke checklist updated if this touches release-cut surfaces — N/A: no user-facing or release-cut surface changes. The product feature set is byte-identical and memory-git still ships.
• Linked issue closed via Closes #NNN — N/A: no tracking issue; this came from a direct request.

Related

• Closes: N/A
• Depends on: feat(lib): re-export git2 for hosts that inspect a ledger tinycortex#147 (the git2 re-export the test uses) and chore(core): drop the unused git2 dependency tinymemory#14. Both must merge first, then the gitlinks here need repointing at their merge commits before this lands.
• Follow-up PR(s)/TODOs: tests/live_routing_e2e.rs is missing required-features = ["http-server"] (pre-existing, see Validation).

• Tauri fmt/check (if changed): N/A: app/src-tauri unchanged. Its memory-git forward is by name and still resolves — verified by the feature-forwarding gate.

Validation Blocked

• command: cargo check --tests (whole-crate)
• error: unresolved import openhuman_core::core::jsonrpc::build_core_http_router in tests/live_routing_e2e.rs
• impact: None on this change — the failure is pre-existing on main and unrelated to git2. The affected test target has no required-features declaration. Targeted checks of the test I touched pass.

Behavior Changes

• Intended behavior change: none.
• User-visible effect: none. Same libgit2 linked, same gate semantics, same off-state.

Parity Contract

• Legacy behavior preserved: memory-git on ⇒ ledger, wiki mirror, memory_diff namespace and agent tool all present, as before. Off ⇒ unknown-method, tool absent, Capability::Diff dropped, cohort shed — verified by the kernel-floor ratchet and a gate-off build.
• Guard/fallback/dispatch parity checks: feature-forwarding gate passes (shell forwards exactly the product set); kernel floor within ratchet on every profile.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR removes the direct git2 dependency, routes Git features through TinyCortex and TinyMemory, updates vendored revisions and dependency floors, and changes repository validation to use tinycortex::git2.

Changes

Memory Git ownership

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Feature wiring and vendored integrations Cargo.toml, vendor/tinycortex, vendor/tinymemory	The manifest removes the direct git2 dependency and forwards Git support through TinyCortex and TinyMemory. The vendored submodule references are updated.
Repository API validation and documentation AGENTS.md, Cargo.toml, tests/memory_artifacts_e2e.rs	Documentation records TinyCortex’s Git ownership and feature behavior. The end-to-end test opens the wiki repository through tinycortex::git2.
Dependency floor recalibration scripts/kernel-floor.limits	The flows dependency floor changes to 297 packages, 279 unique crate names, and two native builds.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3c42b

The dependency ownership move is localized and validated, but AGENTS.md still contains a native-build count that is not clearly consistent with its dated baseline, so the PR is mergeable with explicit documentation follow-up.

Clarify the native-build baseline in the memory-git row.

Line 498 says that this feature removes two of five native C builds. Lines 451-456 describe the current kernel baseline as two native builds and attribute reductions to both runtime-node and memory-git. Add a historical qualifier to “five”, or update the row to the current pre- and post-gate measurements. Otherwise, the table and the dated baseline provide different dependency-floor figures.
