Summary

The streaming I/O this service depends on was upstreamed in davidbyttow/govips#539 — which landed our #530 with authorship preserved — plus follow-up #540. The replace directive pointing at antst/govips is no longer needed.

- github.com/davidbyttow/govips/v2 v2.18.0
+ github.com/davidbyttow/govips/v2 v2.18.1-0.20260808163446-115936532956
-
- replace github.com/davidbyttow/govips/v2 => github.com/antst/govips/v2 v2.0.0-20260612014756-be0d7643869e

Why this is safe

Upstream is a strict superset of the pinned fork commit (be0d764):

  • Exported API diff is empty. Every exported declaration in the fork's vips package exists upstream with unchanged signatures — including all seven symbols this service uses (LoadImageFromReader, SetStreamDiscThreshold, SetStreamScratchDir, SetPipeReadLimit, plus stock APIs).
  • Line-level: every non-comment line the fork added to vips/*.{go,c,h} is either verbatim upstream or accounted for by upstream's refactor of the inline export-param mapping into shared *ParamsFromExport helpers. transcode.go is byte-identical; govips.go identical; image.go differs only by a doc comment.
  • The only fork-side deletion is dead code: save_tiff_to_target in stream.c. Both versions take the buffered early-return path for TIFF (libtiff requires seekable output), so it was never called.

What we gain

Two real robustness fixes on our streaming path:

  • sourceRead bounds retries on a pathological (0, nil) reader — the fork's unbounded for {} can spin forever inside a cgo callback, pinning a libvips worker thread.
  • takeErr now actually clears the error it takes, so a stale error can't resurface on a later call.

Plus sub-format sniffing for streamed AVIF/BMP/PSD (#540 — relevant to 019 if we ever read Format() on the streaming path), typed SaveToWriterJpeg/Png/Webp/Tiff/Heif/Gif variants, BigTIFF detection, WebP TargetSize version guard, greyscale background fix.

Caveat

Streaming is not yet in a tagged releasev2.18.0 (2026-04-01) predates the merge and there's been no tag since. This pins an upstream master pseudo-version. Still strictly better than the fork: no replace, so Renovate can now see and bump it. Move to v2.19.0 once tagged.

go mod tidy also pruned go.sum entries that only existed to satisfy the fork's own go.mod (chi 5.3.0, nats-server 2.14.2, older x/crypto/x/net/x/sync/x/sys/x/text) — pure removals, no require version changed.

Docs

CLAUDE.md and internal/imaging/testdata/README.md updated. specs/020-stream-uploads/{research,plan,spec}.md got dated supersede notes at the three points that prescribed the replace directive — spec bodies left intact as point-in-time records. README.md needed no change (mentions govips, never the fork).

Verification

check result
go build ./... (stub) OK
go build -tags vips ./... OK
go test -tags vips ./... 12/12 packages ok
golangci-lint run 0 issues

Local libvips 8.18.4, Go 1.26.5.

The streaming I/O this service depends on was upstreamed in
davidbyttow/govips#539 (which landed our #530 with authorship
preserved) and #540, so the replace directive is no longer needed.

Verified upstream is a strict superset of the pinned fork commit
(be0d764): the exported API diff is empty, and every non-comment line
the fork added to vips/ is either verbatim upstream or accounted for
by upstream's refactor of the export-param mapping into shared
*ParamsFromExport helpers. The only fork-side deletion is dead code
(save_tiff_to_target — both versions take the buffered path for TIFF,
since libtiff needs seekable output).

Upstream also carries two robustness fixes on top of the fork:
sourceRead now bounds retries on a pathological (0, nil) reader
instead of spinning inside the cgo callback, and takeErr clears the
error it takes rather than letting a stale one resurface.

Streaming is not yet in a tagged release (v2.18.0 predates the merge),
so this pins an upstream master pseudo-version; move to v2.19.0 once
tagged. go mod tidy also pruned go.sum entries that only existed to
satisfy the fork's own go.mod — no require version changed.

Verified: go build ./... and -tags vips, go test -tags vips ./...
(12/12 packages), golangci-lint run clean.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The project now consumes upstream govips at a master pseudo-version instead of the antst/govips fork. Documentation, specifications, research notes, and fixture attribution record the upstreamed streaming support.

Changes

Upstream govips adoption

Layer / File(s) Summary
Switch the govips dependency
go.mod, CLAUDE.md
The module uses upstream govips pseudo-version v2.18.1-0.20260808163446-115936532956. The fork-specific replace directive is removed.
Align specifications and attribution
specs/020-stream-uploads/*, internal/imaging/testdata/README.md
Project records identify the upstream streaming APIs and update the fixture attribution to github.com/davidbyttow/govips.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to 604b2

The dependency update does not introduce a functional production risk; remaining issues are limited to stale documentation references and one Markdown formatting error, which are minor cleanup items and do not block merge.

Fix the Markdown heading parse.

Line 29 starts with #540 without a space. Keep the issue references on the same prose line or indent the continuation so Markdown does not parse it as an atx heading.
