Give -v to verbose, move --version to -V (closes #64)
urfave/cli's built-in version flag claimed -v by default, colliding with
the -v verbose alias used on every subcommand; "mfer -v --version" failed
to parse with an internal-sounding parser error. Verbose is the more
common meaning of -v in tools that offer both, so verbose now keeps -v at
the root and on every subcommand, and the version flag takes the capital
-V (--version still works).

User-visible change: -v alone now prints help with verbose logging rather
than the version; use -V or --version for the version.

The --version flag and the version subcommand now share one printer, so
they emit identical output. Adds tests covering -v, --verbose, --version,
-v --version, and --verbose --version (exit code and output).

# Workflow
- branch (from `main`)
- do the work in Next Step
- move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps
- move the top item of Future Steps into Next Step
- commit (`TODO.md` changes in the same commit as the work)
- merge to `main` if the branch is not protected, otherwise open a PR
- push
# Status
pre-1.0. No git tags. README section "TODO: Remaining Work for 1.0" lists open
design questions and implementation tasks; policy compliance work is in flight
and unmerged.
# Next Step
Work through the remaining compliance items folded from the 2026-07-02 audit
(the first group under Future Steps): `.editorconfig`, `.gitignore` coverage,
gofumpt-based `fmt-check`, README "Getting Started", and the rest.
`.golangci.yml` and `TODO.md` are tracked and committed as of 2026-08-07, so the
only thing left of the `chore/align-repo-policies` branch is the list below.
# Completed Steps
- 2026-09-21: fixed the `-v` collision between `--verbose` and `--version`;
verbose owns `-v`, and version answers to `--version` and `-V` (#64)
- 2026-08-09: added `.prettierrc`/`.prettierignore`, gave `script/fmt` and
`script/fmt-check` one shared prettier file set via `script/prettier`, dropped
the `|| true` that hid prettier failures, and added a node-based Dockerfile
stage so a markdown formatting violation fails `docker build .` (#69)
- 2026-08-07: updated golangci-lint to v2.12.2 everywhere it is pinned
(`Makefile`, `Dockerfile`), added the canonical `.golangci.yml`
(`default: all`), and fixed all resulting lint findings across the codebase
- 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints, Makefile
shims, README Entrypoints section
- 2026-07-03: aligned repo tooling, docs, and config with standardized policies
(7d9a138, on chore/align-repo-policies, unmerged)
- 2026-06-28: moved to standardized repo policies (#56, on main)
- 2026-04-07: added 1.0 roadmap as README TODO section, removed old TODO.md
(#54)
- 2026-03-20: added Gitea Actions CI workflow (#53)
- 2026-03-17: added REPO_POLICIES.md, renamed CLAUDE.md to AGENTS.md (#51);
removed committed .index.mf (#52)
- 2026-03-15: split Dockerfile with pre-built golangci-lint stage for faster CI
(#45)
- 2026-03-01: 1.0 quality polish: code review, tests, bug fixes, docs (#32)
- 2026-02-20: deterministic file ordering in Builder.Build() (#28); removed
committed vendor/modcache archives (#35)
- 2026-02-08: added --seed flag for deterministic manifest UUID
# Future Steps
- Compliance (fold of TODO.md audit 2026-07-02; verify which items the in-flight
branch already closes, then check off):
- Add .editorconfig (canonical copy from sneak/prompts)
- Make .gitignore cover secrets (.env, _.key, _.pem), OS files (.DS_Store),
and editor files (_.swp, _~)
- Make fmt-check/lint verify with gofumpt, not gofmt -l, so `make check`
matches what `make fmt` writes
- Add README "Getting Started" section with copy-pasteable install/usage
block
- Move FORMAT.md from repo root to docs/ and update the AGENTS.md reference
- Pin Makefile-installed Go tools (`protoc-gen-go@v1.28.1`,
`golangci-lint@v2.12.2`) by module hash, not mutable tag
- Set `make test` timeout to 30s (currently 10s)
- Add explicit README "Rationale" heading (content exists under other
names); name the author in the README Description first line
- Reconcile root-level AGENTS.md with directory-hygiene policy (keep or
relocate)
- Add a `make build` target
- Rewrite `make hooks` to use printf or a heredoc instead of non-portable
`echo '...\n...'`
- Answer the 14 owner design questions in the README 1.0 roadmap:
- Format: simplify MFFileChecksum; store file mode; drop atime; specify path
normalization rules; version byte after magic; length-prefix after magic
- Signatures: hash covers compressed or uncompressed data; sign raw bytes vs
hex canonical string; detached .mf.sig support; GPG subprocess vs pure-Go
crypto
- Implementation: deterministic manifests by default; consolidate duplicate
scanner/checker implementations; export the manifest type; canonical Go
module path for 1.0
- Format and correctness:
- Resolve proto go_package vs go.mod module path inconsistency
- Specify and validate path invariants (UTF-8, forward-slash, relative, no
.., no leading /)
- Remove or deprecate atime; reserve mode field; add version byte (all
pending design answers)
- Write a standalone format specification document
- Library:
- Delete internal/scanner and internal/checker; consolidate on the mfer/
package versions (pending design answer)
- Add decompression size limit via io.LimitReader in deserializeInner()
- Fix errors.Is dead code in checker; make AddFile verify totalRead == size
- Export manifest type or define a public interface (pending)
- Replace GPG subprocess with pure-Go crypto (pending); add timeouts to
remaining subprocess calls
- CLI:
- Kebab-case primary flag names; fix fetch URL construction with
url.JoinPath; add http.Client timeout and retry with backoff to fetch;
rate-limit Checker progress output; add --deterministic flag or default;
wire top-level --version properly
- Testing:
- Fuzz NewManifestFromReader; end-to-end tests for freshen and fetch
- Documentation:
- Promote docs/FORMAT.md as primary spec reference; audit error messages;
document the signature scheme fully
- Release:
- Finalize module path, bump version constant, SemVer --version output, tag
v1.0.0
