Combining them into a single Gradle invocation caused
:amethyst:packagePlayBenchmark to fail inside AGP's
IncrementalSplitterRunnable worker — both variants share packaging
state in one task graph and the benchmark leg trips on it.
The old workflow always ran these as two separate `./gradlew` calls.
Match that pattern. They still run on the same runner with a warm
Gradle cache, so the compilation savings from sharing quartz/commons
with the test+packageDeb step are preserved; we only pay two Gradle
startups, which is trivial.
Previously each OS ran Gradle twice (or three times on Ubuntu): once to
compile+test, then again to build desktop packages, plus a third run on
Ubuntu for Android APKs. Merging these into a single matrix job per OS
lets Gradle build the task graph once and reuse compiled classes across
test, desktop packaging, and Android assembly.
- Combine test + build-desktop into one matrix job (test-and-build)
- Fold build-android into the same Ubuntu matrix leg
- Use --no-daemon consistently; drop the redundant --stop steps
- Raise timeout to 60 min to cover the combined work
P1 fixes (must-fix):
- AppRun: VLC path corrected to usr/lib/app/linux/vlc (jpackage actual
path), add VLC_PLUGIN_PATH env var for codec discovery
- linuxdeploy: use APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 env var to bypass FUSE
on CI runners instead of fragile pre-extract + symlink approach
- Prerelease classifier: inverted to positive-match stable format
(^v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$) across desktop, Android, and composite
action — eliminates regex drift between allowlists
- assert-stable-release: now accepts inputs (tag, is_prerelease,
is_draft) so workflow_dispatch on bump workflows also validates
P2 fixes (should-fix):
- .gitignore: add linuxdeploy-*.AppImage and extracted dirs
- RPM version: use replace("-", "~") instead of substringBefore("-")
for correct RPM prerelease ordering (1.08.0~rc1 < 1.08.0)
- linux-portable → linux alias moved into collect_assets() in
scripts/asset-name.sh (single source of truth)
- Android cache key: add gradle/libs.versions.toml to hashFiles
- r0adkll/sign-android-release: SHA-pinned to 349ebdef (v1)
P3 fixes (nice-to-have):
- LINUXDEPLOY_OUTPUT_VERSION env var replaced with
APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN (misleading comment + redundant var)
- nick-fields/retry timeout: 40m → 15m (surface real hangs)
- generate_release_notes: true only on Android job (avoid
last-writer-wins race across 6 concurrent uploaders)
- apt-get install rpm: tightened guard to matrix.family == 'linux'
(linux-portable leg doesn't need rpm tooling)
- Upload APK as a GitHub prerelease asset for direct .apk download
(no zip wrapping like artifacts)
- Remove commit comment, only comment on open PRs
- Clean up existing release with same tag before creating

Use the artifact-id output from upload-artifact to construct a direct
GitHub artifact download URL. No third-party service needed — the URL
points to the artifact on GitHub which triggers a download when clicked.

GitHub artifact URLs require authentication and don't provide direct
file downloads. nightly.link proxies artifact downloads, giving a
direct download link that works for anyone without GitHub login.

Add PR commenting to the build-benchmark-apk workflow. When a build
completes, it now finds any open PR for the branch and posts a comment
with a direct download link to the benchmark APK artifact.

- Split build.yml into lint, test (matrix: 3 OS), build-android, and
build-desktop (matrix: 3 OS with native packaging) jobs
- Tests now run on ubuntu, macos, and windows to validate cross-platform
compatibility
- Desktop distributions (DEB, DMG, MSI) built on their native OS and
uploaded as artifacts
- Split create-release.yml into create-release, deploy-android, and
deploy-desktop jobs so desktop distributions are included in releases
- Android APK/AAB builds and Quartz publishing remain on Linux
