//! Components used for synchronising storages.
//!
//! The general gist behind synchronising is:
//!
//! - Create a new [`declare::StoragePair`]. This type specifies which storages and which
//! collections are to be synchronised. A [`status::StatusDatabase`] instance with details of the
//! previous synchronisation should be provided, if it exists.
//! - [`plan::Plan::new`] is used to create a [`Plan`](plan::Plan). This contains a list of actions
//! to be executed to synchronise both storages. This instance can also be inspected before
//! executing any actions (e.g.: as a from of dry-run).
//! - The plan may have conflicting items (represented as [`ItemAction::Conflict`]). These MAY be
//! replaced with different actions (e.g.: [`ItemAction::UpdateInA`] to overwrite storage A with
//! the contents of B).
//! - If resolving conflicts requires writing a merged file into both storages, this needs to be
//! done using the `Storage` APIs directly. The next synchronisation will detect the resolved
//! conflict automatically and update the status database.
//! - Use [`plan::Plan::execute`] to execute the plan itself. It updates the status to reflect
//! which items exist on both side and their metadata. This will be used on the next cycle to
//! understand which items have changed on which sides.
//!
//! The synchronization algorithm is based on [the algorithm from the original vdirsyncer][orig].
