add extra spec about serialization format for json document #80

Closed pipermerriam closed 6 years ago

pipermerriam commented 6 years ago

Fixes #77

What was wrong

Two lockfiles with identical content can easily end up hashing to a different value due to differences in whitespace used when serializing the JSON.

How was it fixed

Define a strict definition of serialization which is tightly packed with sorted keys and utf8 encoded.
