Every main push moves :latest, but main builds don't build an APK — so the in-app update channel silently vanished from :latest until the next tag.

image-release now, on non-tag builds, pulls the most-recent release's signed APK from the gitea API and reconstructs its exact versionName (${TAG#v}.$(git rev-list --count TAG) — the same formula android-release bakes in) for the version sidecar. No rebuild, just rebundle; tag builds still bundle their own freshly-built APK. Degrades to an empty client/ (404 update channel) — never a wrong version — if no release / APK asset / tag count can be resolved.

Merging this triggers a main build that re-points :latest at an image carrying the v2026.06.12 APK.

ci(release): bundle the latest release APK into non-tag :latest builds 2c5c477a0d

Every main push moves :latest, but main builds don't build an APK — so the
in-app update channel silently vanished from :latest until the next tag.

Now the image-release job, on non-tag builds, pulls the most-recent
release's signed APK from the gitea API and reconstructs its exact
versionName (${TAG#v}.$(git rev-list --count TAG) — the same formula
android-release bakes in) for the version sidecar. No rebuild, just
rebundle; tag builds still bundle their own freshly-built APK. Checkout
gains fetch-depth:0 + fetch-tags so the commit count resolves. Degrades to
an empty client/ (404 update channel) — never a wrong version — if no
release / APK asset / tag count can be resolved.
