Oct 1, 2025

October 2025 focused on stabilizing build and CI efficiency for leil-io/saunafs. Delivered Docker-based build consistency by updating the vcpkg submodule and integrating it into the Docker image to pin dependency versions and streamline CI builds. Increased CI throughput by segregating long-running tests into LongSystemTests, preserving functionality while reducing overall test runtime. Enhanced sfsmount documentation to clearly describe trash file limits and version-specific behavior, including historical risks and the 5.3.0 fixed limit. These changes reduce build drift risk, speed up feedback loops, and improve developer onboarding through clearer documentation and repeatable environments. Key commits include: 7b0b4e59af4612c33bd1bcd7b9ea73388f292159 (build: Update vcpkg submodule (#606)), d924637a47ad008f6ef96ed72d01d62ef751d325 (test: Move long short tests to LongSystemTests (#645)), edfefeaf4f4011291211c3ba8a11ac141a15cda9 (docs(sfsmount): Update documentation regarding trash file limits (#644)).
