rsync without --delete left every previous version on the server (the
screenshot showed 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 side by side). The push now removes
non-current installers over ssh first, so the remote feed mirrors the local
one whether the transfer uses rsync or tar.
Both scripts now read the version from desktop/package.json: the build
report and checksums only cover the current version's artifacts, the feed
copy ignores older files, and publishing prunes previous installers from
the feed (latest*.yml only ever points at the current one).
The remote feed copy now happens by default (overridable with
J621_DESKTOP_FEED_HOST or --host, skippable with --local), so a release is
one command on the build machine.
--host user@server:/path syncs deploy/data/desktop to the same path on the
server with rsync, falling back to tar over ssh when the server has no
rsync. A failed transfer now exits non-zero instead of claiming the feed is
live.
electron-builder now publishes latest-linux.yml / latest.yml and embeds
app-update.yml plus package-type, so electron-updater runs pacman -U or
dpkg -i through pkexec for packages and updates the per-user NSIS install
without elevation. The app checks only when asked (menu item), asks before
downloading and before installing, and J621_UPDATE_URL overrides the feed
for tests or forks.
deploy/push_desktop.sh builds and publishes the artifacts to
deploy/data/desktop, which the frontend nginx mounts read-only at
/desktop/. Verified detection and up-to-date handling against a local feed
with the packaged Arch build.
