Two gaps that would each have undermined the update flow on release day.
The update check polled /releases/latest, which GitHub defines as the most
recent NON-PRERELEASE, non-draft release. Ship a version with the pre-release
box ticked and it becomes invisible: no notification, no update button, on any
platform, with nothing in the logs to explain it. StemDeck has always published
even its alphas as normal releases (v0.8.0-alpha.17 has prerelease=false),
which is the only reason this has not bitten yet -- it was a trap waiting on
someone ticking a box. Now polls the releases list and takes the newest
non-draft, so it is correct either way. Drafts stay excluded: they are already
invisible unauthenticated, and a maintainer should not be offered a release
whose assets do not exist yet.
windows-check.yml and macos-check.yml now also run on pull requests that touch
desktop/src-tauri/**, not workflow_dispatch only. This PR added roughly 600
lines of mostly cfg-gated Rust across two commits and every CI check passed
without compiling a single line of it; the comment at the top of
windows-check.yml notes that exact gap already shipped a broken Windows build
in v0.11.1's first release attempt. Scoped by path so the self-hosted runners
see no extra load from the majority of PRs, which never go near src-tauri.
This also gets the macOS branch compiled for the first time. Local verification
covered Windows and Linux, so the cfg(not(any(windows, linux))) arm of the
three updater commands has never been near a compiler.
