// Package balanced provides methods to build balanced DAGs. | ||
// In a balanced DAG, nodes are added to a single root | ||
// until the maximum number of links is reached (with leaves | ||
// being at depth 0). Then, a new root is created, and points to the | ||
// old root, and incorporates a new child, which proceeds to be | ||
// filled up (link) to more leaves. In all cases, the Data (chunks) | ||
// is stored only at the leaves, with the rest of nodes only | ||
// storing links to their children. | ||
// | ||
// In a balanced DAG, nodes fill their link capacity before | ||
// creating new ones, thus depth only increases when the | ||
// current tree is completely full. | ||
// | ||
// Balanced DAGs are generalistic DAGs in which all leaves | ||
// are at the same distance from the root. | ||
// Package balanced provides methods to build balanced DAGs, which are generalistic | ||
// DAGs in which all leaves (nodes representing chunks of data) are at the same | ||
// distance from the root. Nodes can have only a maximum number of children; to be | ||
// able to store more leaf data nodes balanced DAGs are extended by increasing its | ||
// depth (and having more intermediary nodes). | ||
// | ||
// Internal nodes are always represented by UnixFS nodes (of type `File`) encoded | ||
// inside DAG nodes (see the `go-ipfs/unixfs` package for details of UnixFS). In | ||
// contrast, leaf nodes with data have multiple possible representations: UnixFS | ||
// nodes as above, raw nodes with just the file data (no format) and Filestore | ||
// nodes (that directly link to the file on disk using a format stored on a raw | ||
// node, see the `go-ipfs/filestore` package for details of Filestore.) | ||
// | ||
// In the case the entire file fits into just one node it will be formatted as a | ||
// (single) leaf node (without parent) with the possible representations already | ||
// mentioned. This is the only scenario where the root can be of a type different | ||
// that the UnixFS node. | ||

// Layout builds a balanced DAG. Data is stored at the leaves | ||
// and depth only increases when the tree is full, that is, when | ||
// the root node has reached the maximum number of links. | ||
// Layout builds a balanced DAG layout. In a balanced DAG of depth 1, leaf nodes | ||
// with data are added to a single `root` until the maximum number of links is | ||
// reached. Then, to continue adding more data leaf nodes, a `newRoot` is created | ||
// pointing to the old `root` (which will now become and intermediary node), | ||
// increasing the depth of the DAG to 2. This will increase the maximum number of | ||
// data leaf nodes the DAG can have (`Maxlinks() ^ depth`). The `fillNodeRec` | ||
// function will add more intermediary child nodes to `newRoot` (which already has | ||
// `root` as child) that in turn will have leaf nodes with data added to them. | ||
// After that process is completed (the maximum number of links is reached), | ||
// `fillNodeRec` will return and the loop will be repeated: the `newRoot` created | ||
// will become the old `root` and a new root will be created again to increase the | ||
// depth of the DAG. The process is repeated until there is no more data to add | ||
// (i.e. the DagBuilderHelper’s Done() function returns true). | ||
// | ||
// The nodes are filled recursively, so the DAG is built from the bottom up. Leaf | ||
// nodes are created first using the chunked file data and its size. The size is | ||
// then bubbled up to the parent (internal) node, which aggregates all the sizes of | ||
// its children and bubbles that combined size up to its parent, and so on up to | ||
// the root. This way, a balanced DAG acts like a B-tree when seeking to a byte | ||
// offset in the file the graph represents: each internal node uses the file size | ||
// of its children as an index when seeking. | ||

Looking at this, especially in the context of the generated godoc, I wonder if most of this should move to a comment inside the the function so it doesn’t read as public documentation (it’s definitely still helpful clarification for someone working on the balanced builder here). Otherwise, it reads as a lot of detail about how this function works that isn’t necessary (and might be confusing) for a user of the function.

Totally true, but I can't find any other place in the function for this information,
Layout
actually has only a few code lines, none of which could be easily associated with the two introductory paragraphs, the "magic" is happening in the recursion call, which is hiding a lot behind the scenes (something I'm not really a fan of). Anyway, I will have this advice in mind when writing documentation (that was actually my motivation when moving much of the package description inside the individual functions).
