Fixes #8999

Summary

  • Replace go env | grep GOARCH | awk -F\'' '{print $2}' with $(go env GOARCH) in hack/install.sh

go env GOARCH is the canonical, documented way to read a single Go environment variable.

The previous 'go env | grep GOARCH | awk -F\'' pipeline is fragile:
it depends on the specific output format of 'go env' which can vary.
'go env GOARCH' is the canonical, documented way to read a single
Go environment variable and is simpler and more reliable.

Hi @Ankitsinghsisodya. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a knative member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Tip

We noticed you've done this a few times! Consider joining the org to skip this step and gain /lgtm and other bot rights. We recommend asking approvers on your previous PRs to sponsor you.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Pull request overview

This PR improves the robustness of the local development install script by switching to Go’s canonical single-variable environment query for detecting the target architecture, aligning with the documented go env <VAR> usage.

Changes:

  • Replace a fragile go env | grep ... | awk ... pipeline with go env GOARCH to populate KO_ARCH.
  • Keep KO_FLAGS platform selection behavior the same while making KO_ARCH detection more stable.

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
