//! git-style registered lock files to make altering resources atomic.
//!
//! In this model, reads are always atomic and can be performed directly while writes are facilitated by the locking mechanism
//! implemented here. Locks are acquired atomically, then written to, to finally atomically overwrite the actual resource.
//!
//! Lock files are wrapped [`gix-tempfile`](gix_tempfile)-handles and add the following:
//!
//! * consistent naming of lock files
//! * block the thread (with timeout) or fail immediately if a lock cannot be obtained right away
//! * commit lock files to atomically put them into the location of the originally locked file
//!
//! # Limitations
//!
//! * [All limitations of `gix-tempfile`](gix_tempfile) apply. **A highlight of such a limitation is resource leakage
//!   which results in them being permanently locked unless there is user-intervention.**
//! * As the lock file is separate from the actual resource, locking is merely a convention rather than being enforced.
//!
//! ## Examples
//!
//! ```
//! # fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! use std::io::Write;
//!
//! # let dir = tempfile::tempdir()?;
//! let resource = dir.path().join("config");
//! std::fs::write(&resource, b"old = value\n")?;
//! let mut lock = gix_lock::File::acquire_to_update_resource(
//!     &resource,
//!     gix_lock::acquire::Fail::Immediately,
//!     None,
//! )?;
//! lock.write_all(b"new = value\n")?;
//! let (resource_path, _) = lock.commit()?;
//!
//! assert_eq!(resource_path, resource);
//! assert_eq!(std::fs::read_to_string(&resource)?, "new = value\n");
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
