Two branches: dev for everyday work, production for releases.
- ci.yml builds and packs on dev and on pull requests; it never publishes.
- release.yml runs on a push (usually a merge) into production: reads
<Version> from the csproj, refuses to proceed if that tag already
exists, publishes to nuget.org, and only then creates the tag and the
Gitea release — so a tag always means a published package.
- Drop --skip-duplicate: a duplicate push must fail loudly instead of
reporting success while shipping nothing.
Standalone home for the CertifiEd .NET client SDK, split out of the
platform repository with its history.
- src/ layout with its own solution, Directory.Build.props and
global.json (warnings as errors, XML docs required).
- Gitea Actions CI: build and pack on every push, publish to nuget.org
on a v* tag using the NUGET_API_KEY secret.
- CONTRIBUTING documents the release flow and the one-time CI setup.
