2026-05-25Version flag, Makefile, and honest cross-platform documentationsrdusr1-0/+59
Neither binary had a -version flag - a basic expectation for any CLI tool, and useful for anyone reporting a bug ("which build is this"). internal/version holds Version/Commit/Date, set via -ldflags "-X mitmux/internal/version.X=..." at build time and defaulting to "dev" for a plain `go build` with no ldflags, so -version is never blank or misleading about whether a given binary is a tagged release or a local build. Both mitmux and mitmuxd gained a -version flag that prints it and exits. Makefile: `make build` (both binaries for the current platform, version info from `git describe`), `make test` (the same build/vet/gofmt/test checks expected before every commit here), `make install` (a thin wrapper over `go install`, respecting GOBIN/GOPATH as usual - not reimplementing Go's own path resolution), `make release` (cross-compiles both binaries for linux/darwin/windows/freebsd, amd64+arm64 where it makes sense, into dist/). Every target is CGO_ENABLED=0: modernc.org/sqlite is pure Go, so no C toolchain is needed anywhere, cross-compiling included - this was already true before this commit, just not verified or made easy to use. Verified live, every target actually run rather than just written: `make build` produces working binaries with version info correctly picked up from git (confirmed against a real -version invocation, both the "dev" default and an ldflags-injected release-style version string); `make test` runs clean; `make release` was run for real and produced 6 platform/arch binaries, each confirmed with `file` to be a genuinely correctly-formatted executable for its target (Mach-O for both macOS architectures, PE32+ for Windows, ELF for both Linux architectures and FreeBSD) - not just "the command exited zero." `make install`'s correctness rests on `go install` itself, Go's own well-tested mechanism; deliberately not run for real here since it writes into the real GOPATH/bin outside this repo, unprompted. README gained an honest Platforms section: Linux is what's actually been run and verified throughout this project's development; macOS, Windows, and FreeBSD cross-compile cleanly and pass go vet, and the code has nothing Linux-specific in it (CA/history storage already used Go's own cross-platform os.UserConfigDir, not a hardcoded XDG path - also fixed the README's install-directory example, which had been Linux-only text), but they haven't run on real hardware, so they're documented as "should work, not yet verified" rather than a claim this session can't actually back up. Also flagged a concrete, real gotcha: macOS's shorter Unix domain socket path limit combined with the deeper ~/Library/Application Support default control-socket location could matter for a long username, with the existing -socket flag as the workaround. go build/vet/gofmt/test/mod tidy all clean.
