`release [@name ...] <tag> [notes]` does the whole chain in one step —
create the annotated tag, push it to the internal server, then push it to
each selected mirror and turn it into a release object there. Target
selection reuses pushremote's @name mechanism, so the two behave alike.
Notes are generated when none are given: the tag's own annotation when it
carries more than the default, otherwise the commit subjects since the
previous tag, capped at 50 lines. `tag add v1.0 "why this exists"` now
takes a message, which is what that fallback reads; before, the
annotation was always just the tag name.
Tags ending in -rc/-alpha/-beta/-pre are marked as pre-releases on Gitea
and GitHub. Releasing the same tag twice updates the existing release;
a tag that already points at a different commit stops the command, since
moving a published tag makes one version mean different things per
server. A repository that is not on the mirror yet is reported instead of
being created as a side effect.
Binary assets are deliberately out of scope: Gitea attaches them to the
release, GitHub uses a separate upload host, and GitLab does not host
them at all but wants a link into its package registry.
The providers differ in path shape and field names -- GitLab addresses
projects by URL-encoded path, calls the notes "description" and has no
pre-release flag -- so this comes with a recording httptest stand-in that
asserts the exact requests for all three. That harness also covers
authUser, repoExists and the auth header forms, which had no test at all.

The remote commands are the only code in mgsh that can destroy data, and
they were the least verifiable: each one is a single string handed to a
login shell, so a missing quote silently changes which paths it touches.
Every one of them now goes through the sshExec variable, and yesno is a
variable too, so a test can record what would have been sent and answer
the confirmations without a terminal.
The tests pin down what the previous commit fixed by reasoning alone:
that a declined or unreachable `init` sends no rm -rf, that a project
named "my 'weird' project" reaches the server fully quoted, and that
archive's cp/tar/rm sequence is named, ordered and quoted correctly.
push is driven end to end against a real local bare repository.
archive also gained the server-side existence check that init, clone and
show already had, so a project that was never pushed reports that instead
of failing inside cp -r.

Correctness and security fixes found by a review of the initial commit:
- init decided whether a server repository existed from the *local*
remote.origin.url, so an unlinked project directory skipped the
confirmation and rm -rf'd the remote history. It now asks the server,
and aborts when the server cannot be reached.
- Project names and paths were interpolated unquoted into the remote
shell command strings: a space split one path into two arguments and a
backtick executed on the git server. Everything now goes through shq(),
and chained remote commands use && so a failed cd cannot let the next
command run in the login directory.
- Bare `cd` panicked with an index-out-of-range and took down the shell;
it now deselects the project.
- Command-line mode set PRJ to the whole path below BASE, so `mgsh push`
from a subdirectory staged only that subtree and addressed a bogus
server path. It now truncates at the first path element.
- `list` hardcoded owner and group "git git" in its regex and silently
printed nothing on any server where the repositories are owned by
someone else.
- The config parser kept inline "#" comments in values although the
README and the example file document them, so `mirror = true # ...`
silently disabled mirroring.
- ~/.mgshrc holds an API token but was created world-readable.
- The mirror token was passed on git's command line, visible in the
process table; it now goes through GIT_CONFIG_*.
- tag, count and dist ran without a repository and operated on BASE.
- checkout dropped its git options, because the dispatcher strips -x
flags from the word list.
- REPO was read with a plain `git config`, inheriting a foreign origin
from an enclosing repository; it is now local-only and, being dead
state otherwise, no longer recomputed on every prompt.
- getkey consumed a single byte, leaving the rest of a typed answer in
the tty queue where readline ran it as a command.
- The REPL spun on any readline error that was neither EOF nor interrupt.
- Tab completion cached an empty repository list after one failed ssh.
- Startup did a blocking DNS lookup and three `git config --global`
writes on every invocation.
New:
- A project may carry its own .mgshrc, overriding the global settings
while it is active. Resolution order is ~/.mgshrc -> <project>/.mgshrc
-> MGSH_*; base and the git identity keys stay global. It is read when
the project changes, and `rescan` reloads it.
- pushremote mirrors to any number of servers, configured as
remote.<name>.url/key/type/visibility blocks. `pushremote` pushes to
all of them, `pushremote @name ...` to a selection, and `remotes = ...`
restricts and orders the set. Each target owns a git remote of the same
name; a failing target no longer stops the others.
- `config` shows the resolved configuration, its sources and the mirror
targets with masked tokens; `config -k` lists the setting names.
- gitkey was parsed and documented but never used. It is now the ssh
identity for the git server, for mgsh's own ssh calls and, via
GIT_SSH_COMMAND, for the git commands mgsh runs.
- config, count, login and cloneall work from the command line too.
