The release tarball previously omitted dashcaddy-api/src/, which meant the
in-container self-updater had to apply post-deploy patches (dashcaddy-post-
deploy-patches.sh) to work around missing files. That script generates 37
flat copies of src/ files at the dashcaddy-api/ root level to satisfy
broken require() paths. With proper src/ shipping, those files become
obsolete, but they were still being shown as untracked in git.
Changes:
- BUILD-PIPELINE-FIX.md documents the build pipeline fix (in /opt/dashcaddy-release/
build-release.sh — sibling repo, not tracked here)
- .gitignore now ignores the 37 generated post-deploy artifacts plus the
backups/ and updates/ runtime directories, so 'git status' stays clean
- scripts/dashcaddy-post-deploy-patches.sh is now tracked so it's preserved
across rebuilds (still useful as a safety net for transitional installs)
Working tree accumulated 172 untracked/modified files from the auto-updater:
- 19 secret/runtime files in dashcaddy-api/data/ that should never be tracked
- 199 byte-identical duplicates of tracked files dumped at root by an
outdated rsync/cp step
- 6 scratch debug scripts (cm_check.js, login_test.js, full_test.js, ...)
- 7 .bak-* files from start.sh and dashcaddy-update.sh rollback branches
- Root-level routes/ directory: dead code, container COPYs dashcaddy-api/routes/
.gitignore now ignores:
- dashcaddy-api/data/ (runtime: credentials, secrets, history)
- start.sh.bak*, scripts/*.bak* (auto-updater rollback backups)
- updates/ (auto-updater runtime state)
- cm_check*.js, *_test.js (scratch debug scripts)
Removed dead code:
- routes/openclaw.js (replaced by dashcaddy-api/routes/openclaw.js)
Recreated runtime scripts that were deleted with their duplicates:
- start.sh (canonical container-start, 47-line full config)
- scripts/dashcaddy-update.sh was already untracked; fixed the tracked
dashcaddy-api/scripts/dashcaddy-update.sh instead (see next commit)
Net change: 172 → 17 files in working tree.
- Add missing fetchT dep to session-handlers.js (fixes ctx is not
defined error that broke jellyfin/emby/plex/syncthing SSO)
- Replace all ctx.fetchT calls with direct fetchT usage
- Remove server-old.js (69K monolith backup) from tracking
- Remove AI-generated doc artifacts from repo root
- Update .gitignore to prevent re-adding these files
