bin/repo advance --from/--to moves packages forward through the pipeline
(edge → rc → stable), driven by the source channel's database rather than the
raw directory, copying packages AND their detached signatures (fixing the old
migrate bug that left promoted packages unverifiable), refusing to rewrite any
published filename, and requiring a .sig for everything it moves. stable → rc
is allowed only as --fast-ring parity replication or the one-time
--bootstrap seed (bin/repo bootstrap-rc). 'migrate' stays as a deprecated
alias for the transition.
helpers/lock-helpers.sh adds a host-wide flock shared by bin/release,
advance-channel, and upload-prebuilt (reentrant via OMARCHY_RELEASE_LOCK_HELD)
so timers and operators serialize instead of interleaving partial publishes.
bin/release gains a stable-only step 7: replicate fast-ring artifacts to rc so
rc and stable stay in parity between release trains (skipped until rc is
bootstrapped).
- helpers/paths.sh: validate_mirror/require_valid_mirror for the edge|rc|stable
set, and REPO_ROOT (OMARCHY_REPO_ROOT override) so a secondary checkout like
the rc branch worktree publishes into the same channel tree as the primary
- validate --mirror everywhere it previously accepted any string (sync-repo,
promote-build, update-repo, clean-repo, remove-package) and widen the
edge|stable checks in build, deploy, push-build, auto-release
- build/Dockerfile: rc builds compile against rc-mirror.omarchy.org
