utilities/file_location_listing#15: Make index rebuilds atomic

Issue Information

Issue Type: issue
Status: closed
Reported By: btasker

Milestone: v0.1
Created: 29-Dec-23 15:12



Description

Currently, when we rebuild the index we rewrite it in place - so there's a period of time (however short) where the index file is available for use, but incomplete.

That's (sort of) OK when there are only occasional runs. However, with utilities/file_location_listing#14 being implemented, we're going to need operations to be much more atomic.
