internal/checkpoint/checkpoint.go

// Package checkpoint implements methods to interact with checkpoints
// as described below.
//
// Root is the internal representation of the information needed to
// commit to the contents of the tree, and contains the root hash and size.
//
// When a commitment needs to be sent to other processes (such as a witness or
// other log clients), it is put in the form of a checkpoint, which also
// includes an "origin" string. The origin should is a unique identifier for
// the log identity which issues the checkpoint. This package deals only with
// the origin for the Pixel Binary Transparency Log.
//
// This checkpoint is signed in a note format (golang.org/x/mod/sumdb/note)
// before sending out. An unsigned checkpoint is not a valid commitment and
// must not be used.
//
// There is only a single signature.
// Support for multiple signing identities will be added as needed.
