i’m pretty sure it’s because i’ve since deleted the /rel directory, because it’s in .gitignore and i used git clean -df at one point.

my real question is

  1. do i have to commit /rel? i don’t really want compiled binaries in my codebase.
  2. why doesn’t fly just create a new release from scratch?
  3. what are my options now, launch from scratch?

/rel is generated by mix phx.gen.release --docker you can try to restore it by running the command. This folder should be in a repository, not in .gitignore by design, and does not contain binaries but a few small files with shell scripts.
