pkgmgr/CHANGELOG.md

## [0.8.0] - 2025-12-10

* **v0.7.15 — Installer & Command Resolution Improvements**

* Introduced a unified **layer-based installer pipeline** with clear precedence (OS-packages, Nix, Python, Makefile).
* Reworked installer structure and improved Python/Nix/Makefile installers, including isolated Python venvs and refined flake-output handling.
* Fully rewrote **command resolution** with stronger typing, safer fallbacks, and explicit support for `command: null` to mark library-only repositories.
* Added extensive **unit and integration tests** for installer capability ordering, command resolution, and Nix/Python installer behavior.
* Expanded documentation with capability hierarchy diagrams and scenario matrices.
* Removed deprecated repository entries and obsolete configuration files.


## [0.7.14] - 2025-12-10

* Fixed the clone-all integration test so that `SystemExit(0)` from the proxy is treated as a successful command instead of a failure.


## [0.7.13] - 2025-12-10

### Fix tools path resolution and add tests

- Fixed a crash in `pkgmgr code` caused by missing `directory` metadata by introducing `_resolve_repository_path()` with proper fallbacks to `repositories_base_dir` / `repositories_dir`.
- Updated `explore`, `terminal` and `code` tool commands to use the new resolver.
- Improved VS Code workspace generation and path handling.
- Added unit & E2E tests for tool commands.

## [0.7.7] - 2025-12-09

## [0.7.6] - 2025-12-09

* Fixed pull --preview bug in e2e test


## [0.7.5] - 2025-12-09

* Fixed wrong directory permissions for nix


## [0.7.4] - 2025-12-09

## [0.7.2] - 2025-12-09

* Implemented Changelog Support for Fedora and Debian


## [0.7.1] - 2025-12-09

* Fix floating 'latest' tag logic: dereference annotated target (vX.Y.Z^{}), add tag message to avoid Git errors, ensure best-effort update without blocking releases, and update unit tests (see ChatGPT conversation: https://chatgpt.com/share/69383024-efa4-800f-a875-129b81fa40ff).


## [0.7.0] - 2025-12-09

* Add Git helpers for branch sync and floating 'latest' tag in the release workflow, ensure main/master are updated from origin before tagging, and extend unit/e2e tests including 'pkgmgr release --help' coverage (see ChatGPT conversation: https://chatgpt.com/share/69383024-efa4-800f-a875-129b81fa40ff)


## [0.6.0] - 2025-12-09

* Expose DISTROS and BASE_IMAGE_* variables as exported Makefile environment variables so all build and test commands can consume them dynamically. By exporting these values, every Make target (e.g., build, build-no-cache, build-missing, test-container, test-unit, test-e2e) and every delegated script in scripts/build/ and scripts/test/ now receives a consistent view of the supported distributions and their base container images. This change removes duplicated definitions across scripts, ensures reproducible builds, and allows build tooling to react automatically when new distros or base images are added to the Makefile.


## [0.5.1] - 2025-12-09

* Refine pkgmgr release CLI close wiring and integration tests for --close flag (ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/share/69376b4e-8440-800f-9d06-535ec1d7a40e)

## [0.4.2] - 2025-12-09
