#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Small utility to more automatically do the renames the morning of "making visible",
# after artifacts have mirrored. In theory, could be done by a cron or at job.
#
# Note, copy is used, instead of move, so that the parent directory's "modified time" does not change.
# That way the mirroring script won't falsely report "no mirrors" (for a while).
#
# Plus, we "copy over" any existing files, under the assumption that previous labeled files are left in place,
# for a while, so they'd serve as backup. If that ever changes, should make a --backup of
# the original files ... just in case ... but then modified time of parent directory would be
# changed.
#
# And notice we do "artifacts" first, so by the time "content" can be retrieved, by p2, thre will be
# valid artifacts "pointed to". If anyone has already fetched 'content' and in the middle of getting
# artifacts, their downloads should nearly always continue to work (except we do keep only 3 milestones
# in composite, so in theory, they might have stale 'content' data that pointed to an old artifact that
# was no longer in (the newly copied) 'artifacts' file.
