Dependency resolution now lives in the `jolt` CLI itself instead of a separate
jolt-deps executable. `jolt` resolves a deps.edn into JOLT_PATH/JOLT_APP_PATHS
in-process and dispatches the deps subcommands:
jolt -M:alias [args] run the alias :main-opts
jolt -A:alias CMD run CMD with the alias paths
jolt run FILE resolve, then run FILE
jolt path | tasks | task NAME
A deps.edn in the working dir is auto-resolved for the runnable commands
(repl/-m/-e/nrepl-server/FILE), so e.g. `jolt -M:nrepl` (or plain
`jolt nrepl-server`) starts an nREPL with the project and its deps loaded.
The runtime core stays deps-agnostic — it only reads JOLT_PATH. The resolver
(deps.janet) is reached only from the CLI entry and loads jpm lazily, so a run
with no deps.edn never touches it and an app baked from its own jolt/api entry
never links it. resolve-deps-argv only resolves on an explicit deps command or
when a deps.edn is present; help/version never do.
jolt-deps stays as a thin deprecation shim that forwards to `jolt`, so existing
scripts keep working. Docs (README, CLAUDE.md, building-and-deps, tools-deps)
and the help text updated.
Git clones now default to a shared, sha-immutable cache —
$JOLT_GITLIBS, else <config-dir>/gitlibs — instead of a per-project
./jpm_tree, the tools.gitlibs ~/.gitlibs model. Passing tree
explicitly still works (tests do). The resolved-roots cache moves
out of the clone tree to the project-local .cpcache/jolt-deps.jdn,
since roots depend on the project while clones don't.
deps.edn grows :tasks, the honest subset of babashka's: a string
task is a shell command, a map task is {:main-opts [...] :doc}.
jolt-deps tasks lists them (merged user+project), jolt-deps task
NAME runs one. Bare-expression tasks are out of scope: the reader
hands back parsed data and round-tripping to source is fragile.
Also fixes load-config skipping the symbol-key normalization when
only one config file existed — :tasks/:deps keys stayed raw reader
symbols (which embed positions and never compare equal), so lookups
missed. Regression rows in deps-tasks-test; docs updated for the
whole tools.deps surface (aliases, -A/-M, user config, conflicts,
gitlibs cache, tasks).
One documentation root: the prose docs (building-and-deps, self-hosting
architecture/compiler, tools-deps, grammar.ebnf) join the spec and RFCs under
docs/. References in README and deps-conformance-test updated.
