While AppImage attempts to be a more portable way of running
applications across linux installations, sometime is maybe necessary
to run inside docker.
So examples are provided, which also provides testing regime to
validate how the AppImage can be quickly tested.
Removes NOFILE warning (by default) when running under TCL8 but
still allows user to override with "export MAGIC_ULIMIT_NOFILE="
before running docker with extra argument '-e MAGIC_ULIMIT_NOFILE'.
This switches the 'remotes/origin/HEAD' and uses the current HEAD of the
current checked out git repo.
Revised the sed rule that is transforming (to be more specific on the
matching regex /-\d+-g/ than just the first /-/):
8.3.530-7-gb64321d4 => 8.3.530+7-gb64321d4 (replace first '-' with '+'
to indicate it is tag plus this many commits)
8.3.530 => 8.3.530 (no change)
This switches to the 'continuous' tag release, that will auto update.
This broke the very old AppImage7 tool since that release not return
HTTP/404. But I updated all to use their current recommendation.
Upgrade Tcl to 8.6.16
Use versioning to include tag, indication of timestamp and git hash.
Rename to include '7' in the labeling (as it is EL7 based)
Improve log output to keep information about versions used.
Update README.md a little.
(Take two)
+ Adds a GitHub Actions flow that builds an AppImage (see AppImages.org) that can produce a monolithic magic binary
~ Fix a portability issue in tcltk/magic.sh.in
This binary should theoretically work on any Linux distro with Glibc 2.3+ and Cairo 1.8+, which is any up to date distro in the last decade.
