Replace username package with native os.userInfo() The username package (v7.0.0) is ESM-only and depends on execa, which causes bundling issues with @yao-pkg/pkg when building the standalone executable. The execa dependency was not being included in the pkg snapshot filesystem, resulting in: Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package 'execa' Since username was only used to get the current user as a fallback when SUDO_USER is not set, replace it with Node's built-in os.userInfo().username which provides the same functionality without external dependencies. Preliminary (testing) support for 26.04LTS (Resolute). Only for use in development testing with daily builds.
Automates the build process for bitcurator-cli using Node 24 on ubuntu-latest. The workflow: - Runs on pushes/PRs to main, version tags, and manual dispatch - Builds the Linux executable using @yao-pkg/pkg - Generates SHA256 checksum and GPG signature (.sha256.asc) - Uploads build artifacts for all runs - Creates GitHub Releases automatically when version tags are pushed Requires GPG_PRIVATE_KEY and GPG_PASSPHRASE repository secrets for signing.
Properly fetches tags with error suppression Replicates the .ci/version logic inline, handling these cases: - Exact tag match (e.g., v3.1.0) → outputs 3.1.0 - Commits after a tag → outputs 3.1.0.5.g20ed9a6 (version.commits.grevision) - No tags exist → outputs 3.1.0.0.g20ed9a6 (falls back to 0 commits) Generates config.json with just the version field, matching existing format
