Migration Guide

OVERRIDES → METHOD_OVERRIDES (PR #642)

The OVERRIDES relationship type has been renamed to METHOD_OVERRIDES for consistency with the new METHOD_IMPLEMENTS edge type.

Do I need to migrate?

No. Backward compatibility is handled automatically at runtime:

  • local-backend.ts dual-reads both OVERRIDES and METHOD_OVERRIDES in all impact-analysis and context queries. Existing stored graphs with OVERRIDES edges continue to return correct results without any manual intervention.
  • The REL_TYPES array in schema-constants.ts includes both names so Cypher queries that reference either will work.

What happens on re-index?

Running npx gitnexus analyze on a repository produces METHOD_OVERRIDES edges going forward. The old OVERRIDES edges are replaced as part of the normal full re-index.

When will the legacy alias be removed?

The OVERRIDES compat alias will remain until a future major version. Removal will be announced in this file and in the changelog before it happens.
