- Auto-detect and prefer GNU tar (gtar) when available
- Fallback to BSD tar with COPYFILE_DISABLE=1 if GNU tar not available
- Verified: GNU tar produces clean tarballs with zero warnings
- Final solution for macOS extended attribute issues
- Strip extended attributes from source files before copying
- Add final cleanup step to remove attributes from staging directory
- Verified: tar extraction produces zero warnings
- Version 3.12.5 - the definitive fix
- Prevents macOS extended attributes from being included in tarball
- Fixes tar extraction warnings for all copied files
- Version bump to 3.12.4 for testing
Add COPYFILE_DISABLE=1 to all rsync operations in create-release.sh to prevent
macOS extended attributes from being included in tarballs. This eliminates the
'Ignoring unknown extended header keyword' warnings during extraction on Linux systems.
The release script was checking for src/index.css but the build command
outputs to src/public/output.css. Update both the build verification
and essential files check to use the correct path.
This ensures the built CSS file is properly included and verified in
release tarballs.
- Add COPYFILE_DISABLE=1 when creating tarballs to prevent macOS extended attributes
- This fixes 'Ignoring unknown extended header keyword' warnings when extracting on Linux
- No changes needed in community scripts - fixes the root cause at source
Installation Script Improvements:
- Add tarball download and extraction functions
- Prefer tarballs over git clone for version tag installations
- Maintain git clone fallback for reliability and branch installations
- Add intelligent CSS/dependency detection to skip builds when present
- Fix non-interactive mode to handle fresh installations
Release Script Improvements:
- Include pre-built CSS and build configuration files
- Add production npm dependencies to tarballs
- Add verification for essential files in releases
- Update instructions to promote automated installation
- Ensure compatibility with tarball installation approach
Benefits:
- Faster installations (no npm install/CSS build required)
- More reliable in constrained network environments
- Backward compatible with existing workflows
- Maintains full functionality for development branches
