# Which ref to install. An explicit MOSHCODE_REF wins (pin a tag, or track a
# branch). Otherwise: the latest published release tag.
#
# This used to hardcode `main`, so every install and `update` shipped whatever
# happened to be sitting on the branch — unreviewed merges included — and a
# freshly cut release tag changed nothing about what users got. Releases are
# the thing we test and announce, so they're what installs should track.
#
# The API needs no auth for a public repo, but it can be rate-limited, blocked,
# or simply have no release yet — any of which falls back to main rather than
# failing the install. `|| true` keeps `set -e` from aborting on a failed curl
# or a grep that matches nothing.
