v2.7.3 is the first release built with `vcsInfo { include = false }` and is
verified reproducible: a clean from-source build matched the published
calendula_v2.7.3.apk byte-for-byte across all 1382 zip entries (only the
signature block differs, which F-Droid copies).
- Point the fdroiddata recipe's Builds entry + CurrentVersion at v2.7.3
(was the 2.7.2 placeholder, which lacks the fix and would fail verification).
- UpdateCheckMode: Tags ^v[0-9.]+$ — after this one-time submission F-Droid
auto-tracks new release tags and adds build entries itself; no manual recipe
edits per release.
- Add scripts/check_reproducible_release.sh + an always-on CI step asserting the
release build keeps VCS-info disabled, so reproducibility can't silently
regress and quietly stop official-repo publishing.

Make fastlane/metadata/android/ the single source of truth for store
listing metadata, consumed directly by the official F-Droid repo and
transformed into the self-hosted repo's localized layout at release time.
- Move fdroid-metadata/<appid>/<locale>/ -> fastlane/metadata/android/<locale>/
(git-tracked renames: summary->short_description, description->full_description,
+ title.txt, images/icon.png, images/phoneScreenshots/); keep the app-level
.yml control file for the self-hosted `fdroid update`.
- Add scripts/fastlane_to_fdroid_localized.sh (fastlane -> F-Droid localized,
incl. changelogs) and scripts/sync_changelog_to_fastlane.sh (CHANGELOG.md ->
fastlane changelog); verified byte-identical to the previous metadata.
- release.yaml: build self-hosted metadata from the fastlane tree and sync the
per-version changelog before the transform (one changelog source for both
channels).
- Disable AGP VCS-info embedding on release builds (vcsInfo { include = false })
so builds reproduce byte-for-byte vs the distributed APK — the only file that
otherwise differed (META-INF/version-control-info.textproto). Effective from
the next release.
- Add docs/fdroid-official/ (draft fdroiddata recipe: reproducible build +
AllowedAPKSigningKeys + Binaries + notes).
- Repoint README screenshots/icon, update docs/README + RELEASING, and skip the
Android build on fastlane-only changes (ci.yaml).

Reworks the pipeline so a change is built once and a release is driven by the
merge, not a manual tag push.
- ci.yaml now runs on pull_request (one gate per PR) instead of every branch
push, so there's no CI-on-push + CI-on-merge double run. A single `ci` job
with a docs-only fast-path keeps the required "CI" check always reporting
(docs/metadata-only PRs skip the Android build but still go green).
- release.yaml triggers on push to main. A cheap `detect` job reads versionName
from build.gradle; only when no tag for it exists does the `release` job run:
tests on the merged commit, build + sign, publish to F-Droid, then create the
vX.Y.Z tag + Gitea release via the API (target_commitish = the merged sha).
The tag is now an OUTPUT of a successful release, not its trigger — a failure
before publish leaves no tag, so re-running safely retries. No more separate
tag-triggered run or duplicate ci job.
- The committed versionName/versionCode are now the source of truth (pipeline
pins versionCode from versionName); updated the build.gradle comment.
- translations.yaml switched to pull_request (same path filter).
- docs/RELEASING.md: release-by-merge flow, no manual git tag.

Adds a mandatory pre-tag step to the release process: build the R8-shrunk
release candidate and smoke-test it on a real device, including a first-run /
permission-not-granted state. The v2.7.0 launch crash (calendar observer
registered before the permission gate) reached users because it only manifests
in the minified release build on a device without the permission already
granted — the debug build and an already-permissioned phone both hid it.
- New `releaseTest` build type: same R8 shrinking + obfuscation as `release`,
but debug-signed with a `.releasetest` applicationId suffix so it installs
alongside the production and debug apps. Never published; CI only ever builds
the real `release` variant from the tag.
- scripts/verify-release.sh: builds + installs `releaseTest` and resets it to a
first-run state, with an on-device checklist.
- docs/RELEASING.md: formalize the release/vX.Y.Z branch flow and the on-device
verification gate before tagging.

Add scripts/check_translations.py and a lightweight Translations workflow
that runs it (no Android SDK needed) so Weblate PRs get fast feedback. The
script fails on stale keys (present in a translation but not the base) and on
translating translatable="false" entries; missing keys are reported as
coverage only.
Downgrade lint's MissingTranslation to informational: partial community
translations are expected and fall back to the English base at runtime.
Stale/extra keys (ExtraTranslation) remain fatal in lintDebug.
