Step 1 was "launch from a clean state — the permission screen must appear",
which cannot happen on the path most people are now on. Since 1.0.0 the app
owns its store: with no OpenTasks or tasks.org installed, `autoMode()` resolves
to OWN, there is no permission to grant, and the app goes straight to the task
list. A gate that never appears is a checklist item that either gets ignored or
gets read as a failure.
Verified against this branch on a Pixel 10 (API 37): the releaseTest APK
installs, cold-starts in 549 ms with an empty crash buffer, and lands on the
task list with nothing granted.
The checklist now splits by what is installed, because the two paths verify
different things — and the provider path is where the new copy flow lives, so
it says to exercise it rather than leaving "the release's headline changes" to
stand in for it. A fresh install in OWN mode also has no lists at all, which
makes "create a task" impossible until you create one, so that is a step now.
The script's actions are unchanged: revoking both permission sets is still
right for the provider path, and revoking POST_NOTIFICATIONS still forces the
reminder onboarding either way.
Port Calendula's current CI/release pipeline:
- ci.yaml: pull_request-triggered, change-scope classification
(docs/metadata-only PRs skip the Android build but still report a
green CI), and a reproducible-release invariant guard.
- release.yaml: the committed versionName is the source of truth — a
bump reaching main triggers the release, which builds, signs,
publishes to the F-Droid repo, then mints the vX.Y.Z tag + Gitea
release and mirrors it to Codeberg with the signed APK + SHA-256
checksum. workflow_dispatch runs the re-sign-only recovery path.
- Gitea releases are flagged as pre-releases while MAJOR is 0.
- build.gradle.kts: reproducible-release invariants (vcsInfo,
dependenciesInfo) + a releaseTest variant for the on-device gate.
- fastlane/ becomes the single source of truth for store metadata;
the localized F-Droid layout is generated from it at release time.
- Port scripts/, .gitea/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/, and rewrite docs/RELEASING.md
for the versionName-in-main model; fix stale references elsewhere.
