type t

The type for node values.

type metadata = Metadata.t

The type for node metadata.

type hash = Hash.t

The type for keys.

type step = Path.step

The type for steps between nodes.

type value = [
| `Node of hash
| `Contents of hash * metadata
]

The type for either (node) keys or (contents) keys combined with their metadata.

val v : (step * value) list -> t

create l is a new node.

val list : t -> (step * value) list

list t is the contents of t.

val empty : t

empty is the empty node.

val is_empty : t -> bool
