#3622 Docs: data name portability rule and warning

Opened by stack72 · 10/19/2026· Shipped 10/21/2026

swamp-club#3568 adds a Windows portability check for data names written by writeResource and createFileWriter. content/manual/reference/data.md currently says only that the name latest is reserved. Suggested addition to that page, next to the reserved-name note: a data name containing one of the characters < > : (double quote) | ? * or a control character is refused on a Windows host (Windows cannot store it as a file name) and produces a warning on Linux and macOS; a Windows reserved device name (CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM1-9, LPT1-9, with or without an extension) or a name ending in a dot or space produces a warning on every platform. The warning appears as a Warning line in log mode and as a JSON line on stderr with warning data_name_portability in --json mode. Nothing about stored paths changes. Recommend joining name parts with - rather than :.
