How sources are identified
Primary-source entries preserve the source text. Editorial readings identify their evidence in the page references. Technical claims use a fixed Git commit whenever the claim depends on source code: the commit, file, and—where useful—line range identify the exact snapshot being discussed. A fixed commit does not move when a branch is updated.
The English and Japanese editions are parallel presentations. Their source URL sets are kept aligned, so either language can be cited for the same evidence.
