    Abstract: Source code of a logical segment of a codebase can be isolated from other portions of the codebase yet the logical segment and the other portions may have mutual dependencies. Packaging multiple versions of the logical segment and the other portions of the codebase to be compilable as a single binary file can simplify the development, testing, and release work flows of the codebase. For example, development, evaluation, and deployment of the logical segment and the other portions of the code base can run on different schedules. As another example, a provider of the codebase can control which version of the logical segment computing devices execute.

    Abstract: A client can allocate identifiers to local content items and ensure the identifiers are unique at a content management system. For example, a client can add a first content item at a first path and determine the first content item does not have a first unique identifier. The client can determine that a second content item at a second path was previously associated with the first path and determine that the first content item should inherit a second unique identifier from the second content item. The client can then assign the second unique identifier to the first content item and add a node representing the first content item to a local tree representing a local state of content items at the client, the node including the second unique identifier. The client can also upload the first content item with the second unique identifier to the content management system.

    Abstract: Various embodiments provide a commenting system for multiple users to provide and share comments to shared documents. For example, users can share a web link to a collection of content items, such as documents, spreadsheets, photos, and any other media, with other users stored in an online content management system. The commenting system can provide a comment interface displayable alongside a respective content item and the comments can be saved for each user and the content item with associated comments can be synced across the multiple users. The comments can scroll independently of the content in a content item or the comments can be linked to a location therein and the scrolling of the comments can be linked to the scrolling of the content item such that corresponding comments are displayed.
