## Problem and outcome Website visitors can download the usual Windows x64, macOS Apple silicon and Linux x64 App packages directly from clearly labeled platform cards. Each card includes a verified Gitee alternative, with shared setup guidance and a More downloads link for the full release list. The homepage reuses the application's 20 bilingual greetings, and the sample game no longer displays an invented title. Website builds resolve links from the latest published GitHub release and validate matching mirror assets. Website deployment follows main CI so newly published packages reach the next site build. Version selection and release notes now share a product-change filter: standalone website, documentation and maintenance changes do not create App/Server releases or affect the next product version. ## Verification - `npm run check`: 57 test files / 759 tests, TypeScript and product production build passed. - Website build passed with real GitHub/Gitee v1.0.0 metadata and with the explicit local fallback. - English and Chinese browser checks at 390px and 1440px passed: platform links, More downloads, greeting selection and language switching. - All 23 website film check groups passed; the final shared artwork change rebuilt successfully. - Documentation, repository hygiene and diff checks passed. Real Git-history tests cover product/website mixtures and moves across the release boundary; the accepted phase plans `publish: false`. ## Impact GitHub remains the version authority; Gitee is a download mirror. Unavailable mirror metadata falls back to its release page. Product runtime behavior and package compatibility are unchanged. Physical macOS/Linux capture and broader device/network limits remain documented.

# GitHub Repository And Releases
|
|
|
|
[Versioning](../reference/versioning.md) owns release meaning and compatibility;
|
|
[CONTRIBUTING](../../CONTRIBUTING.md) owns review and local validation. This file
|
|
owns the one-time GitHub settings. The source repository is public; automatic
|
|
package publication has its own activation gate below.
|
|
|
|
## Main And Pull Requests
|
|
|
|
Use squash merging only, with the PR title and body as the squash commit. These
|
|
repository settings are applied. Keep automatic branch deletion off: the normal
|
|
cleanup step checks local worktrees and remaining references first.
|
|
|
|
Protect `main` with PRs required, zero mandatory peer approvals for the solo
|
|
maintainer, administrator enforcement, linear history, and no force pushes or
|
|
deletions. Do not require cloud PR checks while branch/PR CI is intentionally
|
|
quiet; local validation and acceptance precede the squash merge. PR/issue
|
|
templates live in `.github/`; [naming](../../CONTRIBUTING.md#commit-pr-and-branch-names)
|
|
is shared with automatic version selection.
|
|
|
|
These protections are active, including conversation resolution. GitHub Pages
|
|
uses the **GitHub Actions** publishing source and the `piik.tv` custom domain;
|
|
the repository homepage points to `https://piik.tv`. The dedicated Website
|
|
workflow publishes the static site under [website operations](./website.md).
|
|
|
|
## Enable Automatic Publication Once
|
|
|
|
Before enabling, accept the release packages, compatibility baseline, public
|
|
copy and repository visibility; finish main protection. Then set repository
|
|
Actions variable `PIIK_RELEASES_ENABLED` to `true`. This is a repository setting,
|
|
not an environment variable for Piik App or Server.
|
|
|
|
Subsequent accepted PRs merged to main use the existing CI workflow. Product
|
|
changes calculate one version, validate, package Server and all App targets,
|
|
and publish the same artifacts. Standalone website/docs changes validate without
|
|
packaging or releasing; [versioning](../reference/versioning.md#automatic-publication)
|
|
owns that boundary. Runs queue rather than overlap or cancel one another. Branches/PRs
|
|
stay quiet; manual `client_checks` dispatch remains available for candidates.
|
|
Writing a new version back to main is unnecessary and prohibited.
|
|
|
|
For a complete publisher rehearsal, dispatch with `client_checks: true` and an
|
|
explicit `candidate_version` such as `v1.0.0`. This builds genuine Server and
|
|
native App artifacts under one revision and version without tagging or
|
|
publishing. Prepare its [release-note section](../reference/versioning.md#release-notes)
|
|
and inspect the generated preview in the run summary. For a local preview, run
|
|
`node scripts/release-notes.mjs v1.0.0 FULL_SOURCE_SHA` from the checkout with
|
|
full history and tags. Download that run's artifacts and pass their directory, version and
|
|
full revision to `scripts/publish-release.mjs --dry-run` (put the flag after
|
|
the three positional arguments). An omitted candidate version keeps the usual
|
|
development/exact-tag identity.
|
|
|
|
Enable GitHub's built-in release immutability for formal publication where
|
|
available. Upload all assets to the draft before publishing. A failed upload can
|
|
resume its same-source draft; a published version is never clobbered. If its
|
|
files are wrong or incomplete, publish a corrected new version. An older retry
|
|
must not replace a newer release's `latest` designation.
|
|
|
|
To stop future automatic publication, remove/set false the activation variable;
|
|
this does not alter existing releases or a currently running workflow. Inspect
|
|
the active run separately. No pipeline step changes visibility or installs an
|
|
update into a running Piik deployment.
|
|
|
|
## Gitee Download Mirror
|
|
|
|
[TNTcraftHIM/Piik](https://gitee.com/TNTcraftHIM/Piik) is a public README/Release
|
|
mirror. Source, documentation and issues stay on GitHub. The publishing job uses
|
|
the repository Actions secret `GITEE_TOKEN`, which is configured; rotate it there
|
|
when needed. Never put it in source, a remote URL or a distributed package.
|
|
GitHub publication continues to use the workflow's scoped token.
|
|
|
|
After GitHub publication, the same job runs `scripts/mirror-release.mjs` on the
|
|
original artifacts. Upload failure leaves the Gitee release marked as a preview.
|
|
Rerun the failed publishing job to verify existing files and upload only missing
|
|
ones. GitHub's published release remains unchanged. Both publishers reject
|
|
changing a published package; use a corrected new version if its bytes are wrong.
|
|
|
|
If the original Actions artifacts have expired, download that release's files
|
|
from GitHub into an external working directory, then run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
gh release download v1.0.0 --repo TNTcraftHIM/Piik --dir /tmp/piik-mirror
|
|
node scripts/mirror-release.mjs /tmp/piik-mirror v1.0.0 FULL_SOURCE_SHA
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use the release's actual version and full `target_commitish` SHA, with
|
|
`GITEE_TOKEN` supplied through the publisher environment. `--dry-run` after the
|
|
three arguments checks local identity, checksums and attachment sizes without
|
|
publishing. The [release-source policy](../reference/versioning.md#release-sources)
|
|
owns provenance, selection and quota limits. The first public release passed
|
|
complete matching Server and three-platform App mirror download acceptance.
