The canonical .dockerignore and .gitignore both omitted the in-repo agent
scratch directory, which holds one worktree per in-flight agent, so under
`COPY . .` an entire extra checkout of the repo reached the image. The
two entries are deliberately different shapes: anchored in .dockerignore,
where the `**/` form would also delete a legitimately named nested
directory, and unanchored in .gitignore, where a pattern already matches
at every depth. Anchoring leaves a gap where agents run in
subdirectories, stated in the vendored file itself. The second half is
the consequence of excluding .git: `git describe` in a build stage yields
an empty version without erroring, so the version is now computed on the
host and passed in.
