May 1, 2026May 2026 monthly summary for owncast/owncast focusing on delivering reliable, scalable dev/test tooling and stabilizing the developer experience while maintaining rapid iteration: Key features delivered: - Cross-platform FFmpeg download for tests: Extended integration test scripts to automatically download FFmpeg for Linux and macOS by detecting OS/architecture at runtime, enabling consistent CI validation across environments. (Commit: c36d61de9502cdaabd204c742ae0d773574126af) - Lefthook bootstrap robustness: Hardened Lefthook bootstrapping to be self-healing and persistent during hook execution; prevents bootstrap wipe during missing Lefthook or auto-sync scenarios. (Commits: 46d7eacd6d4edc212c471928e0425c791db8dac7; 0860de9af23176235b02451c3695edd6fe3c9a67; Co-Authored by Claude Opus) - Developer tooling and process improvements: Consolidated tooling to reduce churn and improve PR flow, including resilient pre-commit binaries, linting optimizations, go.sum maintenance, and PR checklist automation. (Commits: 7545e242f56d3ff591ebb0f36f0de326b53f251c; 73598793f193143740d0f54262333b46d0388909; 36ee2d4018419c26a2c2cb26e9333cef84734271; dfd9903b386afb14d706878e109684af484dfcbb) - Database backups resource management: Ensured file handler is properly closed after database backups to prevent resource leaks and improve stability. (Commit: fe0856c0fa4a0fdf8c76acf712368e748db367b2) Major bugs fixed: - Lefthook auto-sync wipe: Fixed a loophole where Lefthook auto-sync could wipe the bootstrap, restoring stability in local/dev environments. (Co-authored fix; commits cited above) - Tools/go.sum maintenance: Tidied tools module to repair broken go.sum entries so tool installations remain deterministic. (Commit: 36ee2d4018419c26a2c2cb26e9333cef84734271) - PR automation stability: Fixed issues where automated PRs unnecessarily required a checklist, streamlining CI-driven contributions.
