scripts/interactive-release.sh: use path: prefix for flake refs#7743
Conversation
Nix's default `.#` flake ref treats the flake as a Git-tracked input; in bare-repo + worktree setups this produces "Path 'flake.nix' is not tracked" errors even though the file is tracked. The `path:` prefix sidesteps Git and reads the directory directly, with identical output in standard clones. Encountered during Plutus 1.62.0.0 release, step 6 (`publish-gh-release`).

In a bare-repo + git-worktree layout, Nix's default
.#flake ref treats the flake as a Git input and errors withPath 'flake.nix' in the repository is not tracked by Git— even though the file is tracked in the bare repo. Prefixing withpath:tells Nix to read the directory directly; standard clones see identical behaviour.I hit this during the Plutus 1.62.0.0 release when step 6 (
publish-gh-release) rannix build ".#...". The two invocations in that function are the only.#flake refs in the script; both now usepath:.#.
