Brad Fitzpatrick 9dfe7875fd version: show tailscale/go toolchain git hash in version output
When built with the Tailscale Go toolchain, include the toolchain's
git revision in the version output. The non-JSON output shows the
first 10 hex digits:

  go version: go1.26.2 (tailscale/go dfe2a5fd8e)

The JSON output includes the full hash as "tailscaleGoGitHash", or
omits the field when not using tsgo.

The toolchain rev is read via a separate sync.OnceValue rather than
piggybacking on getEmbeddedInfo, because that function discards all
data when VCS fields are absent (e.g. in test binaries), while the
tailscale.toolchain.rev setting is still present.

Also add a CI-only test verifying tailscaleToolchainRev is non-empty
when built with the tailscale_go build tag.

Fixes #19374

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:

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 1.26. (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.
