Why
promote_signedis now used to finish a release from an externally signed macOS handoff, but this release path (temporarily) no longer distributes DMGs. Keeping DMG staging enabled made the handoff unnecessarily require DMG assets and notarization/stapling validation even though the promoted release only needs the signed macOS binaries.What changed
stage-signed-macosmatrix entry tobuild_dmg: "false", including the primary macOS bundles.matrix.build_dmgso it can be re-enabled deliberately later.The regular signed build path that creates, signs, notarizes, and stages DMGs is unchanged; this only affects the
promote_signedhandoff path.
