Task: Developer commit reconciliation

Goal

Add the developer back-office workflow for importing shipped commits and matching them to curated release update entries.

Feature Spec

• docs/FEATURES/release-communications.md

Scope

• Add release commit persistence and EF Core model configuration.
• Add enum/value support for communication status:
  • Unreviewed
  • Linked
  • InternalOnly
  • Ignored
• Add developer API endpoints:
  • list imported commits
  • import commits for a bounded range
  • link a commit to a release update
  • unlink a commit from a release update
  • mark a commit internal-only
  • mark a commit ignored
• Add developer-only frontend screens:
  • /app/developer/release-commits
  • linked commits on /app/developer/updates/:id
• Support filters for:
  • communication status
  • linked update
  • author
  • date range
  • text search by subject or SHA
• Show an unreviewed commit count.
• Keep user-facing update views free of commit metadata.
• Keep automatic CI deployment integration out of this task.

Likely Files

• backend/src/Socialize.Api/Data/AppDbContext.cs
• backend/src/Socialize.Api/Modules/ReleaseCommunications/**
• frontend/src/router/router.js
• frontend/src/layouts/main/**
• frontend/src/features/release-communications/**
• frontend/src/locales/en.json
• frontend/src/locales/fr.json
• backend/tests/Socialize.Tests/**

Notes

• Commit import must be idempotent by SHA.
• A commit can be linked to at most one release update in v1.
• A release update can have many linked commits.
• Imported commits default to Unreviewed.
• Import must use either a submitted commit payload or configured repository connection settings. Do not discover or read a local .git directory from the deployed app filesystem.
• Repository URL and access credentials must come from configuration/secrets.
• Do not generate user-facing update entries automatically from commits.

Validation

dotnet build backend/Socialize.slnx
dotnet test backend/Socialize.slnx
cd frontend
npm run build

• Developers can mark commits ignored.
• Release update detail shows linked commits to developers.
• Unreviewed commit count is visible to developers.
• Non-developer users cannot access commit reconciliation APIs or UI.
• User-facing update views do not expose commit metadata.
