**Every commit should be matched with a version change.** Bump
`APP_VERSION` / `APP_VERSION_DATE` near the top of `app.py` as part of
the same commit. This is what makes the footer (`v<APP_VERSION> ·
<APP_VERSION_DATE>`) a trustworthy signal that a given deploy actually
landed — a commit without a version bump can't be distinguished from
"not deployed yet" by looking at the live site.
