- Add unified release script that orchestrates tag, build, and upload - Always pass version explicitly to build-release and upload-release - Add --init to docker run for proper signal forwarding (Ctrl+C works) - Add -t flag to docker run when stdout is a terminal - Derive release target repo from origin remote - Set gh repo default before upload to support fork workflows - Add colored output to all release scripts (disabled in non-TTY) - Print Copilot prompt for generating release notes after completion - Update releasing.md documentation
- run-with-release-toolchain now uses native cross-compilation (gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu) instead of QEMU-emulated Docker containers, significantly reducing build time - Cross-compiler, Rust target, CC/CXX/AR/linker env vars set automatically when TARGETARCH differs from host architecture - build-release adds dependency validation step at the start - Output paths handled dynamically (cross builds add target-triple subdir) - upload-release searches multiple candidate paths for tarballs - QEMU is still used for Docker image builds (--platform) but no longer for compilation
