The bare `deploy-branch` and `keep-git-dir` keys in `git:report` returned the computed (effective) value rather than the raw per-app value, with no separate `computed-*` key to distinguish "set per-app" from "falling back to global or default". This left external tooling unable to detect a per-app unset without out-of-band state. The bare keys now hold the raw per-app value (empty when unset) and new `computed-deploy-branch` and `computed-keep-git-dir` keys hold the effective value, matching the convention used by `nginx-vhosts`, `network`, and `builder`. Closes#8610.
Several plugin `:report` subcommands erroneously failed with `not deployed` when an info-flag matched a property that was empty. Empty values are legitimate for configuration properties pre-deploy and the `--format json` path already returns them without error. Remove the `value_exists` check across nginx, checks, git, certs, scheduler-docker-local, and the builder-* plugins so the info-flag form behaves consistently with the JSON form.
The newer git version seems to remove the branches directory for some odd reason. I've attempted debugging this but that git version isn't available for Ubuntu 24.04 - Github Actions seems to install it regardless.
Rather than waste cycles, just remove it from CI.
Git worktrees do not include the full .git directory - only a pointer to the actual directory - when keep-git-dir is set to true, which is incorrect for built containers. This change special-cases that combination, allowing folks on newer git installs to actually keep the .git directory during the build process.
Closes#4415
