Bundling the desktop app takes ~20mins and right now we do it on every PR that touches code. The check for whether a changeset touches code is also a bit faulty, but that's a separate matter.

We rarely need these app builds so in this PR I propose removing this step from CI and adding an option with a manually triggered workflow_dispatch for anyone who wants to build an unsigned copy of the desktop app from a branch.

This will save a significant amount of time waiting for builds in CI, while still letting us build a version of the app this way for any branch when needed.

Pull Request Overview

This pull request removes the automatic unsigned desktop bundling from the CI pipeline and replaces it with a manual workflow dispatch trigger. The change allows developers to trigger desktop app builds on-demand for specific branches rather than running them automatically on every PR.

  • Removed automatic bundle-desktop-unsigned job from the main CI workflow
  • Added new bundle-desktop-manual.yml workflow for on-demand desktop bundling
  • Updated documentation comment in bundle-desktop.yml to reference the new manual workflow
