Phase 1: a working git remote with access control Vole is now a functioning forge foundation: one CGO-free binary that serves real git over smart HTTP and enforces per-repo policy in pre-receive. What is in: - internal/transport drives `git http-backend` as a CGI subprocess. Chunked uploads are spooled to learn CONTENT_LENGTH (git's default client config produces them), spool files are cleaned on error and abort, and a janitor sweeps anything a crash left behind. Pushes are capped by size and serialised behind a semaphore, because Phase 0 measured 1.13 GB of git RSS for a single 1 GiB push. - internal/acl stores roles on refs/vole/acl inside each repository, so access rules travel with a clone. One evaluation function is shared by the hook and the web layer. - internal/hook enforces policy in pre-receive: authentication, write role, protected refs, per-blob size limits, and a refusal to accept pushes to refs/vole/* - without that last check a writer could push their own acl.json and grant themselves admin. - internal/auth holds users, personal access tokens and web sessions in SQLite. Passwords use PBKDF2-SHA256; tokens are 256-bit random values and are stored as SHA-256 hashes, since there is no low-entropy secret to grind. - internal/index is the derived read model, rebuildable from disk and refs. - internal/repo owns the bare-repo store and the metadata ref CAS helper. - internal/web is the browse surface: repo list, tree, blob, raw, history, login, and per-repo settings for access rules, rename and delete. - internal/signing creates the instance ed25519 key at first boot for the Phase 7 work. Every Phase 1 exit criterion has a test that would fail if it regressed: clone/push against a real listener, read-only and anonymous rejection with the ref proven unmoved, rebuild-from-refs compared against the actual acl ref, a spool file proven absent after an aborted chunked upload, and two pushes completing through a single-slot semaphore. scripts/ci.sh runs gofmt, vet, build, a markdown link check and the race-enabled suite. Verified by hand as well: a clean `vole init` -> user -> token -> push -> clone cycle, web login and browse, and a 256 MiB chunked push killed mid-flight leaving no ref, no spool file and no orphaned git processes.
