Adds typed JSON build records under data/builds/<app>/<build-id>.{json,log} keyed on a stable base36 ULID-style DOKKU_BUILD_ID generated for every deploy. The new commands surface that history (builds:list, builds:info, builds:prune) and an operator-configurable retention via builds:set retention. The existing builds:cancel and builds:output now key on the build-id (with safe handling for already-finalized and abandoned records), and the per-build log file replaces journalctl as the durable source of truth for builds:output.

Requirements
A fresh VM running any of the following operating systems:
- Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04 (amd64/arm64) - Any currently supported release
- Debian 11+ (amd64/arm64)
An SSH keypair that can be used for application deployment. If this exists before installation, it will be automatically imported into dokku.
Otherwise, you will need to import the keypair manually after installation using dokku ssh-keys:add.
Installation
To install the latest stable release, run the following commands as a user who has access to sudo:
wget -NP . https://dokku.com/install/v0.37.10/bootstrap.sh
sudo DOKKU_TAG=v0.37.10 bash bootstrap.sh
You can then proceed to configure your server domain (via dokku domains:set-global) and user access (via dokku ssh-keys:add) to complete the installation.
If you wish for a more unattended installation method, see these docs.
