Wrong version when using PHAR distribution

[julpar]

While using phar distribution generic dev branch is displayed as version number.

root@81907ae44f79:/var/www# psalm -v
Psalm 4.x-dev@

Same for baseline generation:

root@81907ae44f79:/var/www# grep psalm-version psalm-baseline.xml 
<files psalm-version="4.x-dev@">

p.s: bring this topic here from an issue in repo psalm/phar bc it seems that repo is not where the discussion takes place, right? (psalm/phar#7)

Hey @julpar, can you reproduce the issue on https://psalm.dev ?

It's very difficult to know in this condition if we have the latest version or not !

Another case where version is displayed as a pattern is in SARIF report (used psalm 4.12.0) :

{
    "version": "2.1.0",
    "$schema": "https:\/\/json.schemastore.org\/sarif-2.1.0.json",
    "runs": [
        {
            "tool": {
                "driver": {
                    "name": "Psalm",
                    "informationUri": "https:\/\/psalm.dev",
                    "version": "4.x-dev@"
                }
            },
            "results": []
        }
    ]
}

I have the same issue than OP. After digging a bit I think it's related to this: box-project/box#460
