A package's .omarchy/package.json may now pin where it lives with
"channels": [...]. With the key present the package builds in each listed
channel except stable (stable is only fed by promotion); without it, today's
defaults hold (build for edge; fast-ring also builds stable directly).
package_moves_to_channel() is the advance/promote eligibility rule: a member
of the destination channel that is not built there natively.
The release pair (omarchy, omarchy-settings) is edge+rc+stable — edge stays
during the client-migration overlap window and drops later. The dev pair is
pinned to edge only.
omarchy-settings-dev provides omarchy-settings (unversioned), so an
unversioned dependency let the dev package satisfy stable omarchy's
settings requirement, allowing a mixed dev/stable install. A versioned
dependency (omarchy-settings=${pkgver}) can only be satisfied by the
real settings package from the same pinned commit and forces the pair
to upgrade together. Verified: requesting only omarchy on a system with
the -dev pair installed replaces both with the stable pair.
Stable-track counterparts of the -dev packages. Source is pinned to a
single shared upstream commit with a real sha256 (pacman 7 validates
checksums on commit-pinned git sources), versioned per the attached-rcN
convention so vercmp orders rc1 < rc2 < final. Seeded at 4.0.0rc1 from
the quattro tip because no upstream 4.x tag exists yet and the packaging
requires the quattro tree (v3.8.x has no shell/ or etc/).
Both packages stay off the fast ring: RCs publish to edge only; stable
receives finals via bin/repo migrate.
