ci: put the launcher's update pointer in a release, and delete the dist branch
The dist branch existed to carry ~120 MB payloads that could not go on main. Once payloads became release attachments it held one 500-byte manifest.json, so it was a whole branch for a reason that no longer applied. The pointer is now a release asset too: each publish recreates a one-asset release naming the versioned build. Forgejo has no /releases/latest/download/ route (404), so a pointer is still required — but keeping it in a release means nothing about distribution lives in git: no payload branch, no bot commits on main, and no push that could retrigger the pipeline (which is why writing the manifest to main was not the answer either). Recreating the tag deletes the old release AND its tag; the tag outlives its release and would otherwise block recreation. Versioned releases are retained, so older builds stay downloadable. tools/publish-dist.ps1 is removed — publishing is CI's job now.

.SYNOPSIS
|
||||
Publishes the /bin alpha feed to the Gitea-only `dist` branch.
|
||||
|
||||
.DESCRIPTION
|
||||
Copies the payloads written by tools/publish-bin.ps1 onto an orphan `dist`
|
||||
branch and pushes it to Gitea (the `origin` remote). The launcher's update
|
||||
check reads that branch's raw URLs.
|
||||
|
||||
Why a separate branch, not main:
|
||||
* The launcher payload is ~103 MB. GitHub hard-rejects any file over
|
||||
100 MB, so payloads on main would break every GitHub push.
|
||||
* Each build is ~150 MB. On main that weight would land in the history
|
||||
every developer clones forever.
|
||||
`dist` is a single-commit ORPHAN branch — each publish REPLACES it, so the
|
||||
feed never accumulates old builds. Nothing on it is a parent of main.
|
||||
|
||||
.PARAMETER Remote
|
||||
Remote to publish to. Defaults to `origin` (Gitea). Never pass the GitHub
|
||||
remote: the payload exceeds its per-file limit.
|
||||
|
||||

||||

## For players
|

1. Download ``bin/launcher-win-x64.zip``.

2. Unzip it anywhere and run ``acdream-launcher.exe``.
|

3. The launcher installs the game client and keeps both up to date.

You need Asheron's Call's DAT files for first-run setup.
