Fixes bd-0b2: The git history backfill mechanism was causing data loss
during JSONL filename migrations (beads.jsonl → issues.jsonl). When issues
existed in the old filename's git history, the backfill incorrectly treated
them as "deleted" and purged them from the database.
Changes:
- Add NoGitHistory field to importer.Options and ImportOptions structs
- Modify purgeDeletedIssues() to skip git history check when flag is set
- Add --no-git-history flag to bd import command
- Add --no-git-history flag to bd sync command
- Update purge_test.go to pass Options argument
Usage:
bd import -i .beads/issues.jsonl --no-git-history
bd sync --no-git-history

After write operations in git worktrees, subsequent reads failed with
"Database out of sync with JSONL" even though the hash check passed.
Root cause: flushToJSONLWithState() updated last_import_hash but not
last_import_time after export. CheckStaleness() compares last_import_time
against JSONL mtime, so after export the JSONL appeared "newer" than the
last import.
Additional issue: RFC3339 only has second precision but file mtimes have
nanosecond precision, causing false positives when times were within the
same second.
Fix:
- Update last_import_time after export in flushToJSONLWithState()
- Use RFC3339Nano format for nanosecond precision
- Update CheckStaleness() to parse both formats for backward compatibility

When JSONL mtime changes without content change (e.g., git pull, touch),
the staleness check would repeatedly trigger but auto-import would skip
due to hash match, creating an infinite loop of "Database out of sync"
errors.
Now we update last_import_time even when skipping import due to hash
match, breaking the staleness loop.

ContentHash and SourceRepo were being exported to beads.jsonl even though
they are internal database fields. This caused JSONL pollution where every
issue got these extra fields, and re-exports would produce different output
than the original clean JSONL.
Changed JSON tags from `json:"...,omitempty"` to `json:"-"` for:
- ContentHash: Internal optimization field for content-based diffing
- SourceRepo: Internal metadata for multi-repo support
This fixes the ZFC resurrection bug where re-exports after import would
pollute the JSONL with internal fields.

Standardized error handling across the SQLite storage layer by
consistently using wrapDBError() helper functions that were already
defined in errors.go.
Changes:
- config.go: Applied wrapDBError to all config/metadata functions
- queries.go: Fixed bare 'return err' in CreateIssue, UpdateIssue, DeleteIssues
- store.go: Changed %v to %w for proper error chain preservation
- errors_test.go: Added comprehensive test coverage for error wrapping
All error paths now:
- Wrap errors with operation context using %w
- Convert sql.ErrNoRows to ErrNotFound consistently
- Preserve error chains for unwrapping and type checking
This improves debugging by maintaining operation context throughout
the error chain and enables type-safe error checking with sentinel
errors.

Creates migration to detect orphaned child issues and logs them for user

where the parent issue no longer exists in the database.
The migration:
- Queries for issues with IDs like '%.%' where parent doesn't exist
- Logs detected orphans with suggested actions (delete, convert, or restore)
- Does NOT automatically delete or convert orphans
- Is idempotent and safe to run multiple times

- Detects orphaned child issues correctly
- Handles clean databases with no orphans
- Verifies idempotency

When importing JSONL after merges that include deletions, FK constraint
violations can occur if an issue references a deleted issue. Previously,
import would fail completely. Now it continues and reports skipped dependencies.
Changes:
- Add SkippedDependencies field to Result/ImportResult structs
- Update importDependencies() to detect FK violations using IsForeignKeyConstraintError()
- Log warnings for each skipped dependency with issue IDs and type
- Continue importing remaining dependencies instead of failing
- Display summary of all skipped dependencies at end of import
Example output:
Warning: Skipping dependency due to missing reference: bd-b → bd-a (blocks)
⚠️ Warning: Skipped 2 dependencies due to missing references:
- bd-b → bd-a (blocks)
- bd-c → bd-a (parent-child)
This can happen after merges that delete issues referenced by other issues.
The import continued successfully - you may want to review the skipped dependencies.

## Summary
When metadata.json gets deleted (git clean, merge conflict, rebase), the
version tracking code auto-recreates it using DefaultConfig() which hardcoded
jsonl_export to 'issues.jsonl'. But many repos (including beads itself) use
'beads.jsonl', causing a mismatch between config and actual JSONL file.
## Changes
1. **bd doctor --fix auto-detection** (cmd/bd/doctor/fix/database_config.go)
- New DatabaseConfig() fix function that auto-detects actual JSONL file
- Prefers beads.jsonl over issues.jsonl (canonical name)
- Skips backup files and merge artifacts
- Wired into doctor.go applyFixes()
2. **Version tracking auto-detection** (cmd/bd/version_tracking.go)
- trackBdVersion() now scans for existing JSONL files before defaulting
- Prevents mismatches when metadata.json gets recreated
- Added findActualJSONLFile() helper function
3. **Canonical default name** (internal/configfile/configfile.go)
- DefaultConfig() changed from issues.jsonl to beads.jsonl
- Aligns with canonical naming convention
4. **FindJSONLPath preference** (internal/beads/beads.go)
- Now prefers beads.jsonl over issues.jsonl when scanning
- Default changed from issues.jsonl to beads.jsonl
5. **Test coverage**
- Added comprehensive tests for DatabaseConfig fix
- Updated configfile tests for new default
- Verified backup file skipping logic
## Testing
- All existing tests pass
- New tests verify auto-fix behavior
- Integration tested with simulated mismatches
Closes: bd-afd
Two Windows-specific test failures:
1. TestNewSQLiteStorage - File locking on temp cleanup
- Windows couldn't delete temp database file because connection was still open
- Added defer store.Close() to properly cleanup the database connection
- Without this, Windows file locking prevents TempDir cleanup
2. TestFindAllDatabases - Unexpected nil slice return
- FindAllDatabases could return nil instead of empty slice when os.Getwd() fails
- Changed from var databases to explicit empty slice initialization
- Ensures function always returns non-nil slice, matching test expectations
Both issues are more pronounced on Windows due to stricter file locking
and different filesystem behavior.

CHANGES:
1. Merge logic (internal/merge/merge.go):
- Added mergeStatus() enforcing closed ALWAYS wins over open
- Fixed closed_at handling: only set when status='closed'
- Changed deletion handling: deletion ALWAYS wins over modification
2. Deletion tracking (cmd/bd/snapshot_manager.go):
- Updated ComputeAcceptedDeletions to accept all merge deletions
- Removed "unchanged locally" check (deletion wins regardless)
3. FK constraint helper (internal/storage/sqlite/util.go):
- Added IsForeignKeyConstraintError() for bd-koab
- Detects FK violations for graceful import handling
TESTS UPDATED:
- TestMergeStatus: comprehensive status merge tests
- TestIsForeignKeyConstraintError: FK constraint detection
- bd-pq5k test: validates no invalid state (status=open with closed_at)
- Deletion tests: reflect new deletion-wins behavior
- All tests pass ✓
This ensures issues never get stuck in invalid states and prevents
the insane situation where issues never die!

Implements flexible error handling for export operations with four policies:
- strict: Fail-fast on any error (default for user exports)
- best-effort: Skip errors with warnings (default for auto-exports)
- partial: Retry then skip with manifest tracking
- required-core: Fail on core data, skip enrichments
Key features:
- Per-project configuration via `bd config set export.error_policy`
- Separate policy for auto-exports: `auto_export.error_policy`
- Retry with exponential backoff (configurable attempts/delay)
- Optional export manifests documenting completeness
- Per-issue encoding error handling
This allows users to choose the right trade-off between data integrity
and system availability for their specific project needs.

- Implemented batch method in SQLite and memory storage backends
- Updated handleExport() and triggerExport() to use batch queries
- Added comprehensive tests for batch operations
