FA-77297 / Calendar recurrence rules / Member archive

Re-keying instance overrides after a series start or interval change: instance check · case 02

An override for a date before the series start survives the edit as a phantom exception.

Case contract

An all-day series (old_start, interval, count) is edited to start at new_start with new_interval. Each override [original, target] (target None = cancelled) is keyed by occurrence index i, where original = old_start + i*interval; overrides not on an old instance (before the series, misaligned or at i >= count) are dropped. The override is re-keyed to new_start + i*new_interval; moved targets are absolute and kept unchanged; an override whose target equals its new key is dropped as a no-op; the last override for a key wins. Return [[new_key, target]] sorted by new key.

Why this case matters

Recurring calendar series are expanded into concrete instances for display, reminders and conflict checks.
