2026-05-08: Fix tauri:dev astro command not found + release --no-push flag

Problem

1. npm run tauri:dev fails with sh: astro: command not found

The project is developed on two Macs (M3 Pro + M1 Max) with source synced via Google Drive offline mode.
When switching machines, Google Drive does not correctly replicate symlinks — node_modules/.bin/ entries arrive as empty/broken zero-byte symlinks on the second machine.

Root confirmation: front/node_modules/.bin/astro was a symlink pointing to "" (empty string, size 0).

Secondary issue: tauri-dev.sh had no npm install step (unlike tauri-build.sh), so it could not self-heal after a machine switch.

Also: the root package.json invoked all tauri scripts with sh scripts/tauri-*.sh, but the scripts use #!/usr/bin/env bash and bash-only features (pipefail). sh ignores the shebang.

2. No way to release without pushing

release.mjs always pushed to remote after tagging. There was no way to bump versions, commit, and tag locally without immediately pushing.

Solution

scripts/tauri-dev.sh

• Added npm ci 2>/dev/null || npm install for both front/ and backend/ before building.
• Added Google Drive path detection: if REPO_ROOT contains Google Drive, a warning is printed to explain the symlink situation.

package.json (root)

• Changed sh scripts/tauri-*.sh → bash scripts/tauri-*.sh for all four tauri scripts so the #!/usr/bin/env bash shebang and pipefail are respected.

scripts/release.mjs

• Added --no-push flag. When set, the script bumps all 6 version files, commits, and tags locally but skips both git push calls.
• Prints manual push instructions when --no-push is used.

docs/versioning.md

• Documented the new --no-push flag.

docs/desktopapp.md

• Added “Multi-machine development” section explaining the Google Drive / symlink behavior and that tauri-dev.sh now auto-heals.
