Special CHECKSUM variable only ever yields d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e

The special CHECKSUM variable available to status commands only ever yields d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e. This appears to be irrespective of the contents of any files in the sources list! 😮

Environment

• Task version: Task version: v3.22.0 (h1:sW+qi054ReRpX7nG8DcKYq3e4IzfSq366RcqEq2lDxc=)
• Operating System: macOS Ventura 13.2.1 (22D68)

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a Taskfile.yml file with the following contents:

   version: '3'
   
   tasks:
     checksum:test:
       cmds:
         - cat checksum
       method: checksum
       sources:
         - '*.txt'
       status:
         - echo "{{.CHECKSUM}}" >checksum

2. Create a file.txt file with any contents
3. Run task --force checksum:test and note the printed checksum
4. Make any change to the contents of file.txt
5. Run task --force checksum:test again and note the printed checksum

Actual results

• Both printed checksums are d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e 😢

Expected results

• The second checksum is different from the first
• Both checksums align with the contents of file.txt at the time they're printed

@treykasada Thanks for the report. This should be fixed in #1080. As I suggested there, I don't think this ever worked. The original PR tests were checking for the value that you reported is always being returned.

Wow, thanks for putting up a fix so quickly @pd93! 😄
