The Override status-go ref stage ran before Deps. `make update` calls nimbus-build-system's `update-common`, which runs `git submodule update --init --recursive` and `git submodule foreach --recursive 'git reset --hard'`, resetting vendor/status-go to the pinned pointer and discarding the override. Every status-go PR check therefore built and E2E-tested the submodule pointer instead of the PR. Jenkinsfile.ios and Jenkinsfile.android have no `make update` between the override and the build, so they were already correct and are unchanged.
Status App
The Status App is a privacy-first, decentralised messenger built with Nim and Qt/QML. It offers end-to-end encrypted messaging, community chats, and Ethereum wallet integration — all without requiring a phone number or email.
