Drop 32-bit arm/v7 from release build platforms#90
Merged
Conversation
The release built linux/amd64, linux/arm/v7, and linux/arm64/v8. The 32-bit arm/v7 target is emulated via QEMU and compiles C-extension deps from source, dominating build time (~30 min). This tool runs as a container action on amd64 GitHub runners; the only realistic non-amd64 use is local pulls on Apple Silicon (arm64). Drop arm/v7 and keep amd64 + arm64.

Summary
The release workflow built three platforms:
linux/amd64,linux/arm/v7, andlinux/arm64/v8. The 32-bitarm/v7target is emulated via QEMU and compiles C-extension dependencies (psutil, regex, etc.) from source, which dominated build time (the v2.2.0 release build ran ~30 min, mostly on arm/v7).This tool is a Docker container action that runs on
amd64GitHub-hosted runners. The only realistic non-amd64 use is pulling the image locally on Apple Silicon, which isarm64. Nobody is plausibly running a cloud-workflow CI tool on 32-bit ARM hardware.Drop
arm/v7; keeplinux/amd64,linux/arm64/v8. Future release builds should drop from ~30 min to a few minutes.Notes
docker/setup-qemu-action@master/setup-buildx-action@masterpins are still untidy but out of scope here.Test plan
