[Bug]: Docker complains about the projet name

[anaslaham]

Describe the bug that you are seeing.

when starting the development environment using make dev.provision docker compose shows the following error:

invalid project name "devstack-quince.master": must consist only of lowercase alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores as well as start with a letter or number

Additional info:
OS: Fedora Linux 39 (Workstation Edition) x86_64
Docker version 24.0.7, build afdd53b
Docker Compose version v2.21.0
OPENEDX_RELEASE=quince.master

Did this happen on the host (your machine or the remote instance) or in the container?

my machine running the dev env

Steps to reproduce.

After running make dev.clone.https
Simply run make dev.provision

What system was this issue seen on?

Linux

Follow-up checklist (for Arch-BOM usage)

• Is the issue flaky or consistent?
• Does it affect multiple people or multiple types of systems?
• Update the devstack troubleshooting documentation page if necessary
  • Do we need a new troubleshooting section?
  • Did a troubleshooting section already exist, but it wasn't easy to find given the symptoms?
  • If a recurring issue, should we ticket an automated resolution in place of the doc?

Hi @anaslaham , thanks for your bug submission!
In general, we suggest using Tutor for developing off named releases. We will soon be deprecating that part of devstack.

That said, it's possible this could be a simple fix of just removing the period when we generate the project name here. However, I'm not sure if anything in our BTR process assumes a specific project name. I have reached out to them to ask.

This should be fixed with #1252. We will probably not pursue this work much further since very few people use devstack to develop off release branches.
