Cut an OpenEnlarge (filmrev) ALPHA / pre-release (testing) build: push a vX.Y.Z-alpha.N tag (no version-file bump) to trigger an auto-published GitHub pre-release that mirrors to R2 and appears in the website's "Testing builds" section — fully isolated from stable. Use this whenever the user wants to "cut/ ship/trigger an alpha", "make a test build", "push a pre-release", "let people test", "beta/rc build", or tag a vX.Y.Z-alpha/-beta/-rc version. This is the PRE-RELEASE counterpart to cut-release: for a stable vX.Y.Z release use cut-release instead. Project-specific to this repo (Tauri 2 + tauri-action, Cloudflare R2 + Pages). The big risk it guards: a mistagged build clobbering the stable auto-updater, so verify isolation every time.
Ship a new OpenEnlarge (filmrev) desktop release end to end: bump the version across all four sync'd files, commit + push main, push a vX.Y.Z tag to trigger the Tauri build, then draft the GitHub release AND fix the in-app auto-updater notes. Use this whenever the user wants to "cut/ship/trigger/draft a release", "push and release", "tag a new version", "publish a build", or asks to write release notes for OpenEnlarge — even if they only mention one of those steps, because the steps are interdependent (a forgotten Cargo.lock bump or an unfixed latest.json silently ships a broken update). Project-specific to this repo (Tauri 2 + tauri-action, draft releases, GitHub Pages site).
