Summary of Changes

Hello @mmathieum, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request modularizes the CI/CD pipeline by extracting the application release logic into a dedicated GitHub Actions workflow. This separation allows for clearer responsibility and independent execution of release tasks, improving the maintainability and scalability of the build and deployment process. The change ensures that release operations are triggered only when necessary, streamlining the overall workflow.

Highlights

New Release Workflow: A new GitHub Actions workflow, mt-release.yml, has been introduced to centralize and manage the application release process, including assembling APKs/ABBs, uploading artifacts, pushing tags, and publishing releases.
Workflow Refactoring: The existing mt-sync-code-data.yml workflow has been refactored to remove the direct application release steps. Instead, it now conditionally triggers the new mt-release.yml workflow using the GitHub CLI if an app release is required.
Environment Variable Configuration: The new mt-release.yml workflow defines a comprehensive set of environment variables for managing repository types, git operations, and various stages of store publishing (alpha, private beta, production), utilizing GitHub secrets for sensitive information.

Changelog

shared-overwrite/.github/workflows/mt-release.yml

shared-overwrite/.github/workflows/mt-sync-code-data.yml
- Modified to remove direct application release steps (assemble, artifact upload, publish).
- Implemented a new step to conditionally trigger the mt-release.yml workflow using the GitHub CLI based on a flag.

Code Review

This pull request refactors the release process by extracting it from the mt-sync-code-data.yml workflow into a new, dedicated mt-release.yml workflow. The sync workflow now triggers the release workflow when required. This is a good separation of concerns. My review includes critical fixes for invalid action versions that would cause the new workflow to fail, along with suggestions to remove dead code and improve efficiency. All original comments have been retained as they do not contradict the provided rules.

Code Review

The pull request successfully introduces a dedicated release workflow (mt-release.yml) and updates the sync workflow to trigger it. This improves modularity and allows for manual release triggers. I have provided a suggestion to improve the robustness of the bash script when handling file arrays.
