fix(desktop): track main for self-update now that GUI merged - #36104
Merged
Conversation
The desktop self-update branch defaulted to bb/gui, the pre-merge feature branch. Now that the desktop app is on main, flip DEFAULT_UPDATE_BRANCH to main so freshly built apps check for updates against the right branch instead of relying on the runtime self-heal fallback.
