A stack can now ship <name>.env and <name>.sh next to its compose files. The
hook is sourced with the tag helpers available, which is what the computing
.mk files of the catalogue were using make for: 29 of its 44 .mk files only
exist to build variables like the fabio tags.
Converting stack/host/fabio.mk by hand gives byte-identical output for the
route tag, and drops a trailing comma the make version left in the listener
list.
Also: APP_HOST and APP_URI are computed (the tag helpers build on them),
--color controls the escape codes rather than always emitting them, and
make test-portability runs the CLI under busybox ash and dash.
Both engines now go through the same 68 cases. 31 produce byte-identical
output; the rest have a recorded CLI expectation and a reason in DELTAS.md,
the bulk of it being that the CLI does not shell out to a recursive make and
calls compose once per project.
Fixed while comparing: the CLI was missing the COMPOSE_FILE_* defaults, so
overlays such as supabase.labels.yml would not have been loaded at all.
A stack is a directory of compose files; the current directory is a stack when
it holds one. The same command works for a project, a catalogue stack, a group
and a host singleton, and stacks sharing a project are now a single compose
call.
Two traps of the make engine are closed on the way: an unknown command is an
error instead of a silent success, and a group is only expanded when its name
is lowercase, so an environment variable can no longer be mistaken for one.
That guard spells out its character class because a-z matches uppercase too
under a dictionary collation.
