Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Goal
Expose the library version at runtime so host programs can report
which version of daw-lua-common is installed.
Context
daw-lua-common is embedded as a git submodule in host programs.
Currently no version is exposed in Lua -- the VERSION file exists
in the repo but is not loaded or returned by init.lua.
Questions to resolve
See also
Not scheduled. Blocked on merkwerk.lua (which is meant to provide the version-reading logic from .version_history, last line) -- merkwerk.lua currently has known bugs and is not yet in use. Building a standalone stopgap here (e.g. reading VERSION directly) would duplicate work that merkwerk.lua should own once fixed. Revisit once merkwerk.lua is usable; not tied to a specific milestone until then.
