# PFES-REPO-005 — PFES Git History and Authority Transition

**Status:** Closed  
**PFES revision:** 0.15.3  
**Authority decision:** Accepted

## Result

The PFES repository is installed at:

```text
/srv/project-frankenstein/repos/pfes.git
```

The accepted authority gate was evaluated at:

```text
main: 50ebae5655e12e7e5b919886a187cd9a128b3795
tree: e6acc9f7a874a01ead3867d76988224300c606ff
tag: pfes-v0.15.2
tag object: f6f191d5f3dc0153422ed8b8b0151df362ce19cb
```

The gate included 38 chronological commits, 38 annotated release tags, and 38
hash-verified cumulative release ZIPs through PFES v0.15.2.

## Validation

The accepted append report records:

- canonical `git fsck --full`: pass;
- canonical clean clone: pass;
- recovery-bundle clean clone: pass;
- exact v0.15.2 release/tree/tag identity: pass;
- `xbox-dvd-tools` unchanged at `8ac5f094391fb67dfb8d9a5ca270e109e97e7dd4`;
- same-physical-disk limitation retained.

The report SHA-256 is:

```text
cd73f397b0b8999e1f739b0fab532af4931a2fffd3b246f96d0bd9dbeec9cfb7
```

## Authority rule

PFES authority now follows the canonical `pfes.git` `main` branch and accepted
annotated release tags. Every accepted tag must retain its exact cumulative
release ZIP and SHA-256.

The following are not authoritative by themselves:

- a local working directory;
- an unreviewed branch;
- an untagged commit;
- a draft or reconstructed ZIP;
- a copied snapshot not incorporated through the accepted release workflow.

## Remaining storage limitation

The repository, release store, and recovery bundles remain on one physical HDD.
They are not an independent backup. PFES-REPO-003 remains open for the first
separate physical backup disk.
