LocalBackend named appc.AppConnector in its appConnector field, in the field's constructor call, and in the AppConnector accessor, so even builds with ts_omit_appconnectors linked the appc package and its dependencies. The buildfeatures.HasAppConnectors checks let the linker drop the code but could not remove the import. Add a build-tag-gated type for the field: appcAppConnector is an alias for appc.AppConnector by default, and in ts_omit_appconnectors builds it is an empty struct with no-op versions of the methods local.go calls, so the shared code still type checks. The constructor call moves behind a newAppConnector helper in the same gated file, and the AppConnector accessor keeps its *appc.AppConnector signature there, with a nil- returning version in the omitted build. This takes tailscale.com/appc out of depaware-min.txt and depaware-minbox.txt. Add a DepChecker test to keep it out; it also sets ts_omit_conn25, since conn25 uses appc as well.

Tailscale
Private WireGuard® networks made easy
Overview
This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code.
Notably, it includes the tailscaled daemon and
the tailscale CLI tool. The tailscaled daemon runs on Linux, Windows,
macOS, and to varying degrees
on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's
code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.
Other Tailscale repos of note:
- the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
- the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
- the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg
- the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey
For background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why, see https://tailscale.com/opensource/.
Using
We serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at https://pkgs.tailscale.com.
Other clients
The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves not open source.
Building
We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.27. (While we build releases with our Go fork, its use is not required.)
go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}
If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh
instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled
If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of
build_dist.sh, please do the equivalent of what it does in your
distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.
Bugs
Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.
Contributing
PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference bugs.
We require Developer Certificate of
Origin
Signed-off-by lines in commits.
See commit-messages.md (or skim git log) for our commit message style.
