A plain `docker build .` stamped `dev`: `.dockerignore` left out `.git`
and the Dockerfile defaulted VERSION to `dev`. `.dockerignore` is now
the canonical one plus this repo's entries, sending `.git` without
`.git/config`. Given no build arguments, the builder stamps `git
describe --tags --always` and the commit and date from git, and fails
if `.git` is present but yields no version. The empty CHECK_EPOCH
refusal is gone so the plain build succeeds; the scripts still pass an
epoch. `script/version` now prints `git describe --tags --always
--dirty`, so make, the scripts and a plain build agree.
Model: opus-5-5
No tag could be cut at all: .goreleaser.yaml had no gitea_urls block, so
goreleaser defaulted to the GitHub API, and the repo has zero tags.
.goreleaser.yaml now points at git.eeqj.de. Version derives from git via
a new script/version - exact tag with any leading v stripped, else
dev-<12-char sha>, with a -dirty suffix when tracked files are modified -
replacing the hardcoded 1.0.0-rc.1 that every local build was stamping
regardless of git state. A tag-triggered .gitea/workflows/release.yml
runs goreleaser with a scoped token (RELEASE_TOKEN); script/bootstrap
installs a sha256-verified goreleaser, and make release / release-snapshot
become script shims like every other target.
Two fabrications were removed rather than merely replaced. goreleaser's
snapshot.version_template was `{{ incpatch .Version }}-next`, which
invents a release number from the last tag - and with no tags, from
goreleaser's own fabricated v0.0.0. And internal/cli/version.go gated its
development-build notice on Version == "dev" exactly, so the moment
untagged builds carried a sha that notice would have gone silent and an
unreleased binary would have read as a release. Replaced with a tested
IsDevVersion predicate, and closed at both layers: the Makefile now
refuses to build when script/version yields nothing, and an empty version
counts as a development build - reachable today via
`docker build --build-arg VERSION=`.
The release workflow installs Go from a sha-pinned actions/setup-go
(v5.6.0) using go-version-file, so the compiler that produces released
binaries is pinned like every other external reference. Without it the
first tag push would either fail at goreleaser's before-hook or compile
the published artifacts with whatever unpinned Go the runner happened to
carry - the one unpinned thing in a release path that already refuses an
unpinned goreleaser.
Known gap: the Go tarball setup-go fetches is version-pinned but not
checksum-verified against a value in this repo, unlike the goreleaser
install and the Dockerfile digest.
