Owner

Show the build commit hash in the shared About dialog with a GitHub-style short SHA on a copy button.

Problem

Verifying which revision built a deployed or packaged app requires digging outside the product UI.

Goal

Expose the embedded build commit in About with a compact copy control that displays a 7-char short SHA and copies the full hash.

Scope

Shared commit resolver script with CI env support
Vite define injection in web and desktop-electron hosts
About dialog UI and smoke test updates
Release workflow env wiring

Non-goals

Electron native About panel changes
Live hash refresh without restarting dev/build

Acceptance Criteria

About dialog shows a copy button with a 7-character short SHA when a build commit is available
Clicking copy writes the full SHA to the clipboard
CI/release builds embed GITHUB_SHA / LAPIS_BUILD_COMMIT via the resolver
Workspace and desktop smoke tests assert the control is present

Implementation Notes

Use scripts/resolve-build-commit.mjs with env precedence: VITE_APP_COMMIT_HASH, LAPIS_BUILD_COMMIT, GITHUB_SHA, jj, git.

Implementation Summary

About dialog shows a GitHub-style short build commit on a copy button (full SHA copied). Added resolve-build-commit.mjs with CI env support (GITHUB_SHA/LAPIS_BUILD_COMMIT), injected VITE_APP_COMMIT_HASH in web/desktop/workspace Vite configs, wired release-desktop build jobs, and updated smoke tests.
