Conversation
A tree reachable only under a denied path survived both pin filters because trees were never in the blob universe, so public IPFS still learned child filenames and blob oids. Filter trees the same way as blobs on the delta withheld set and the full-scan allow-list. Closes #172.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughReplication and pinning now treat withheld subtree trees as withheld content alongside blobs. Full scans enumerate typed objects, compute visibility allow-lists, share deadlines across phases, and fail closed for withheld, dangling, invalid, or incomplete results. ChangesReplication visibility filtering
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change prevents withheld subtree trees from receiving new public replication pins, but the full-scan path now repeats a repository walk under one deadline; on large repositories this may cause the scan to time out and pin nothing. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up on the duplicated traversal cost. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

The doc comment states the fake git "Distinguishes

Summary
A tree that exists only under a denied path no longer gets pinned to public IPFS or Pinata. The replication filters treated trees as structural, so a public CID still named child files and blob oids.
This is the write-side of the same withhold #173 already applies on GET /ipfs/{cid}.
Motivation & context
Closes #172.
Kind of change
What changed
gitlawb-node:replication_withheld_setnow walks blobs and withheld-subtree trees together. All three delta pin sites already take that set, including a first push, which runsrev-list --objectswithout--not.fail_closed_keeps_nonblobs_and_allowed_blobs_onlyis flipped on purpose. Its premise (trees are never content-withheld) was falsified by GET /ipfs/{cid} serves tree/commit objects of withheld subtrees, leaking structure get_tree protects (KTD3) #135/fix(node): gate GET /ipfs/{cid} tree objects so a withheld subtree's structure can't leak (#135) #173. Kubo and Pinata still consume the already-filtered list; there is no second filter.How a reviewer can verify
cargo test -p gitlawb-node --bin gitlawb-node --locked -- \ fail_closed_keeps_commits_allowed_blobs_and_allowed_trees_only \ withheld_object_set_contains_withheld_subtree_tree \ first_push_delta_drops_withheld_subtree_tree \ full_scan_drops_withheld_and_dangling_trees \ withheld_object_walk_fails_closed_on_non_commit_ref \ full_scan_shares_one_deadline_with_tree_allowed_set_walkThe first-push and full-scan tests assert the secret tree is in the candidate universe before they assert it is dropped. Reverting the tree clauses, swapping the wrapper back to blob-only, dropping the non-commit-ref guard, or handing the later full-scan phases a fresh timeout each goes red.

Already-pinned withheld trees stay on public IPFS/Pinata until unpin or GC. This PR stops new pins only. Distinct from #136 and from #218 / #244.

GITLAWB_IPFS_APIorGITLAWB_PINATA_JWTis set; both default empty.Does not change git upload-pack. A path-scoped clone still receives withheld-subtree trees.
Parent allowed trees still name withheld children. That is the SHA-intact tradeoff, same as
get_tree.replicable_objectsstill trusts the withheld set it is handed. A future blob-only set would reopen this class. Production delta sites all go throughreplication_withheld_set.#244 touches the same files and will need a rebase onto this.
