Fix git ownership and -race in the canonical Go Dockerfile (closes #73)
The test phase ran go test -race on the alpine Go image, which has no C
compiler, so cgo was off and the phase failed with "-race requires cgo"
before running a test. It now uses the Debian Go image.

A build context sent as a tar stream keeps the sender's file owners, so
git in the stage that compiles refused the checkout and the version came
out empty. That stage now runs
git config --system --add safe.directory /src, and the policy text and
both checklists say why. The apk add --no-cache git line is unchanged:
its pinning waits on #72.

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

Next Step

Finish the two draft prompt documents in the working tree and commit them: prompts/FIXUP_CLEAN.md (currently a near-empty stub) and prompts/FIXUP_REPORT.md (a rough draft). Write the missing content, run make fmt so they pass fmt-check, and commit.

Completed Steps

  • 2026-10-03: Fixed two defects in the canonical Go Dockerfile example (issue 73). The test phase now uses the Debian Go image, since -race needs cgo and the alpine image has no C compiler, so the phase failed before running a test. The stage that compiles runs git config --system --add safe.directory /src, because a context sent as a tar stream keeps the sender's file owners and git refuses that checkout, leaving the version empty. Both checklists state that step in the same words.
  • 2026-10-03: Brought the canonical .gitignore level with .dockerignore on secrets (issue 38): it now also ignores prod.env-style *.env files, .envrc, *.p12, *.pfx and the extensionless SSH private keys, written to .gitignore's own rules (no **/ prefix) and case-folded with character ranges. example.env and sample.env stay trackable through negations.
  • 2026-10-02: The image version now comes from git inside the build (issues 69 and 71), superseding the 2026-09-08 entry that excluded .git. The canonical .dockerignore sends .git but keeps out .git/config, which can hold a credential. The Dockerfile example in REPO_POLICIES.md installs git, takes the VERSION build argument when one is given and otherwise git describe --tags --always, and fails when .git exists but the version is empty, dev or unknown; a plain docker build . with no build arguments must succeed. This repo's script/docker and script/cibuild still pass --build-arg VERSION, since its own Dockerfile compiles nothing.
  • 2026-09-08: Moved linting and testing into Docker as phases of the main Dockerfile, per the owner ruling on issue 40. script/lint and script/test build one phase each by name with --no-cache — the same answer issue 26 got, so no separate cache-busting mechanism survives — and the final stage copies a harmless file from both, so the image cannot be built unless they pass. This also closes issue 30: a container has its own result cache and its own lock, so a lint verdict can no longer belong to another checkout. No separate lint Dockerfile, and no golangci-lint config verify step. script/check runs the gates and nothing else, and script/cibuild bootstraps first, since it is all CI runs and script/fmt-check is native.
  • 2026-09-08: Kept in-repo agent scratch out of the Docker build context and out of version control: .claude/ is one full checkout of the repo per in-flight agent, and under COPY . . all of it was reaching the image. Also closed the consequence of excluding .git — git describe yields an empty version inside a build stage without failing, so script/docker and script/cibuild now compute the version on the host and pass --build-arg VERSION.
  • 2026-09-08: Closed the secret exposure in the canonical .dockerignore: a local .env, *.pem or *.key was reaching the build context under COPY . ., invisible to every git-based check. The patterns are now written to .dockerignore's own semantics — **/-prefixed so they hold at every depth, case-folded with character ranges — and REPO_POLICIES.md requires verifying by enumerating the image rather than by reading the file.
  • 2026-09-08: Made a pinned tool in script/bootstrap actually reach the host. REPO_POLICIES.md now requires comparing the installed version against the pin rather than testing PATH presence, and re-resolving the binary through PATH after installing, so a version bump cannot be a silent no-op and a shadowed install cannot report success.
  • 2026-09-08: Closed the false green in the canonical CI gate: script/cibuild and script/docker now build with --no-cache, so the Dockerfile's check layers cannot be served from cache on an unchanged tree, and the text claiming a bare docker build . proves the checks ran is corrected in REPO_POLICIES.md, both checklists and the Go styleguide.
  • 2026-09-03: Added -count=1 to both go test invocations in the canonical Go make test example in REPO_POLICIES.md, so the target cannot report a cached pass it did not earn, and documented that Go's test-result cache is a second, independent cache stacked below the Docker layer cache.
  • 2026-08-31: Migrated the canonical .golangci.yml from the deprecated gomodguard to gomodguard_v2: the old linter is disabled by name (which is what silences the deprecation warning), the successor is named explicitly in linters.enable, and it carries a blocked module list drawn only from decisions already recorded in the Go package defaults.
  • 2026-08-07: Set the canonical .golangci.yml to the org-standard v2-schema config already deployed byte-identical across the org's Go repos (settings under linters.settings so thresholds like lll/funlen/cyclop/dupl actually apply under golangci-lint v2). Recorded the canonical golangci-lint version (v2.12.2, commit-pinned) in REPO_POLICIES.md.
  • 2026-03-20: Strengthened constructor naming and Params struct rules in the Go styleguide.
  • 2026-03-18: Documented fail-fast Dockerfile lint stage and conditional -v test rerun patterns in REPO_POLICIES.md.
  • 2026-03-11: Added HTTP service hardening policy for 1.0 releases.
  • 2026-03-10: Added policy: no build artifacts in repos.
  • 2026-03-04: Added LLM prose tells reference and copyediting checklist, then several self-applied revision passes.
  • 2026-02-28: Expanded the pre-1.0 schema migration rule; added clawpub reference.
  • 2026-02-23: Added Go style rules (no type-only packages, Stringer for string-based types); template repos section in README.
  • 2026-02-22: Initial policy corpus: REPO_POLICIES.md, code styleguides (general, Go, JS, Python), repo checklists, CI policy, hash pinning, Go HTTP server conventions, repo scaffolding.

Future Steps

  • Finish, format, and commit FIXUP_CLEAN.md and FIXUP_REPORT.md (the Next Step).
  • Commit this TODO.md at the repo root; it is the last missing policy file.
  • Decide the fate of untracked resume.sh: commit it or delete it.
  • Add more prompt templates for common development tasks (from README TODO).
