# Expose the `gitnexus` binary on PATH so the documented Docker workflow
# (`docker compose exec gitnexus-server gitnexus index /workspace/<repo>`)
# works without users having to invoke `node /app/gitnexus/dist/cli/index.js`.
# `npm prune --omit=dev` in the builder stage strips `node_modules/.bin/`
# entries, so the `gitnexus` bin declared in package.json (`dist/cli/index.js`,
# which already carries `#!/usr/bin/env node` and 755 perms) is otherwise
# unreachable from $PATH.
RUN ln -s /app/gitnexus/dist/cli/index.js /usr/local/bin/gitnexus
