ci: fix nightly workflow failing on non-semver tag#139
Merged
Conversation
GoReleaser auto-detects the nearest reachable tag from HEAD and parses it as semver, even in --snapshot mode. After the first nightly run, the non-semver `nightly` tag becomes an ancestor of HEAD on subsequent runs and breaks the workflow with: error=failed to parse tag 'nightly' as semver: Invalid Semantic Version Delete the local `nightly` tag before GoReleaser runs so it falls back to the previous semver tag (e.g. v4.6.7). The tag is force-pushed back to the new HEAD later in the workflow, so this is local-only.

Summary
The nightly workflow fails after the first successful run because GoReleaser auto-detects the nearest reachable tag from HEAD and tries to parse it as semver — even in
--snapshotmode. Once the previous run pushes thenightlytag, every subsequent run hits:Fix: delete the local
nightlytag before running GoReleaser so it falls back to the previous semver tag (e.g.v4.6.7). The tag is force-pushed back to the new HEAD later in the workflow, so this only affects the local checkout.Failing run: https://github.com/apppackio/apppack/actions/runs/25230315118/job/73983937457
