vdirsyncer: rewriting status management

Read Original

The article details the technical challenges with the status management system in vdirsyncer, a tool for synchronizing calendars and contacts. It discusses problems like handling fatal interruptions (power loss) and recovery after transient failures, which can cause conflicts or stalled syncs. The author proposes architectural changes, such as updating status only for successfully synced items and introducing a no-op action.
