the floating v1 tag still points at 1.0.2 and needs moving once by hand #13

Description

@vyncint

Todayrefs/tags/v1 points at 3caa16cb (v1.0.2). Two releases have shipped since:

v1.0.2   3caa16cb91b00e2a280fce71d793c606adf7493a
v1.1.0   2456d59830ac988000a8f82f03cd8149b564a5f4
v1.2.0   a50b0c31e8876330db7bfed0d1c976fa402b8dd1
v1       3caa16cb91b00e2a280fce71d793c606adf7493a   <- 1.0.2

The README tells users to write uses: vyncint/launchbound/action@v1, so that tag is what everyone who followed the documentation is actually running. Diffing the action at both refs gives exactly one difference:

   reconverge-version:
-    default: "0.1.11"
+    default: "0.3.0"

Why it is worth fixing — every consumer on the documented ref is gating with reconverge 0.1.11, and moving that pin to 0.3.0 was the entire subject of 1.2.0. The work landed, the release shipped, and it reached nobody who followed the README. vyncint/launchbound-action-demo — the repository that exists to exercise this action — was among them, so the demo has been proving that the old action works.

Nothing was in a position to catch it. The demo uses @v1 on purpose, because a demo should exercise what users copy; this repo's CI has no reason to inspect a tag it does not consume.

Fix — two halves, and only one of them is automatic.

  • ci(release): move the floating vN tag on publish #12 adds a float-major-tag job that moves vN after a successful publish, so this cannot recur. Merged, it covers 1.2.1 onward.

  • This issue is the one-time catch-up, which no automation can do retroactively:

    git tag -f v1 v1.2.0^{commit}
    git push -f origin refs/tags/v1

    The trigger filter is v[0-9]*.[0-9]*.[0-9]*, so pushing v1 will not re-enter the release workflow.

On the risk — this changes what existing @v1 consumers get, from reconverge 0.1.11 to 0.3.0. That change is already measured: docs/research-baseline.md records the corpus run under both analyzers on the same toolchain — 93 clean, 8 refused, 0 caveats, 0 tool errors, and the two runs byte-identical, same candidate hashes and same REFUSED RC001 reasons. So the gate admits the identical set, and the move is the one users were promised rather than a behaviour change smuggled through a floating tag.

Done whengit rev-parse v1 and git rev-parse v1.2.0^{commit} agree, and launchbound-action-demo's drift check passes.
