unkinben 8ced48901f feat: server-level GitHub machine credential for authenticated requests
ci/woodpecker/pr/build Pipeline was successful
ci/woodpecker/pr/test Pipeline was successful
ci/woodpecker/pr/pre-commit Pipeline was successful
Anonymous GitHub is capped at 60 requests/hour and cannot read private
repositories, so a machine credential usable by a free (non-enterprise)
account is needed to lift the request budget and reach private release
assets.

- Add internal/githubauth: a process-wide credential delivered via env/secret,
  applied by default to every outbound GitHub request.
- Support two modes: a Personal Access Token sent as `Authorization: Bearer`,
  and a GitHub App that mints a short-lived RS256 JWT (stdlib crypto, no new
  dependency), exchanges it for a ~1h installation token, caches it, and
  single-flights a refresh a few minutes before expiry.
- Inject the credential at the two GitHub call paths: the rpm github provider
  (releases scan + ranged asset-header GETs) and the generic byte proxy
  (private release-asset downloads for github.com hosts).
- Honor precedence: a remote's own username/password overrides the server
  credential; no credential configured stays anonymous.
- Fail closed at startup on partial App configuration; never persist the
  credential to the DB, return it from an API, or log it.
- Read GITHUB_TOKEN / GITHUB_APP_ID / GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID /
  GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY[_PATH] via the existing getenv convention.
- Document PAT vs App setup, the free-account fine-grained PAT scopes
  (Contents:read + Metadata:read), precedence, and the rate-limit implication.

unkinben e24c35f534 feat: background syncer for github_rpm remotes (#108)
## Why

Builds on #107 (merged), which derives `github_rpm` RPM metadata lazily on the
client request path, single-flighted per replica. Two problems remain: the
derive still happens per replica, so across a multi-replica deployment the same
releases are scanned and re-derived N times, multiplying GitHub queries; and a
cold cache blocks the first request on a full derive. GitHub's rate limits are
low (~60/hr unauthenticated, ~5000/hr authenticated), so this needs a single
coordinated syncer with a shared rate limit and conditional requests.

## How

- Add a single per-process background syncer (started at boot, cleanly stopped
  on shutdown) that owns a deduped/coalescing work queue, a worker pool, and one
  global token-bucket rate limiter (`golang.org/x/time/rate`) bound onto the
  github provider so every GitHub call (releases list + each ranged asset GET)
  acquires a token first.
- Re-check each `github_rpm` remote for new/changed releases on its existing
  `mutable_ttl` cadence; derive only new/changed assets incrementally and prune
  assets that disappear upstream. Repodata is served from primed DB rows.
- Prime metadata in the background on remote creation; the create call returns
  immediately.
- Send the stored releases-list `ETag` as `If-None-Match`; a `304` derives
  nothing and is not counted against GitHub's rate limit, so an unchanged repo
  is nearly free.
- Coordinate replicas through a `github_rpm_sync_state` row (`last_synced_at`,
  `etag`, `sync_lease_owner`, `sync_lease_expires`): a periodic scan runs only
  for the replica that atomically claims the lease, bounding total GitHub load
  to ~once per `mutable_ttl` regardless of replica count; the ETag is shared
  through the same row.
- Keep the request path fast: serve current cache, enqueue a prime on an empty
  cache, and return a bounded wait then a retryable `503` rather than blocking
  on a cold derive.
- Add `GITHUB_SYNC_RATE` / `GITHUB_SYNC_BURST` / `GITHUB_SYNC_WORKERS` /
  `GITHUB_SYNC_POLL_INTERVAL` config with conservative defaults (1 req/s, burst
  5, 3 workers, 60s tick) and document the syncer in the README.

## Tests

- Unit (httptest, Range/ETag-aware fixture): `304` releases response derives
  nothing; incremental derive fetches only the newly added asset; the shared
  limiter caps request rate; work-queue enqueues coalesce to one job; prime
  enqueues a job; a held lease stops a second replica from scanning; cold-start
  serves `503` while warm cache serves `200`.
- DB integration (testcontainers postgres): the real lease SQL — one holder at a
  time, recency gate blocks a too-soon periodic re-claim, prime (freshness 0)
  bypasses recency but respects a live lease.
- Docker e2e re-run: `dnf install dotvault` works; prime-on-create derives in the
  background at ~1 req/s (global limiter); `dnf makecache` served fast from the
  priming cache (no cold block); clean shutdown mid-scan, no panics.

## Notes

- Reuses `mutable_ttl` as the check interval (no new per-remote field), per brief.

unkinben d154fbf3f3 feat: github_rpm metadata-only remote (GitHub releases as a yum repo, no precache) (#107)
## Why

Publishing RPMs to GitHub releases is common, but consuming them with `dnf` requires repodata GitHub does not provide, and mirroring every package into a local repo wastes storage and staleness-tracking on artifacts that already have a durable home. This exposes GitHub releases as a first-class RPM source that synthesizes repodata on the fly and **never precaches the packages**.

## What

Add a `github_rpm` remote package type backed by a metadata-only provider.

- Introduce a `RemoteServer` interception hook (the remote-side analog of `LocalIndexer`): `handleProxy` lets a provider fully answer a request before the byte-proxy engine, passing the request-derived proxy base URL and the DB as a `RemoteMetadataStore`.
- Scan a repo's releases via the GitHub API (`base_url` = the releases API root) for `.rpm` assets, filtered by the remote's `patterns` (regex on asset filename), and reuse the existing local-rpm repodata generators to emit `repomd.xml`/`primary`/`filelists`/`other`.
- Derive per-asset metadata without precaching: fetch only the RPM header via a ranged GET (retrying with a larger range on a truncated-header parse) for NEVRA, requires/provides/conflicts/obsoletes and files; take the sha256 from the GitHub asset `digest` when present, else compute it once by streaming.
- Cache derived metadata in `rpm_metadata` keyed by asset path; re-scan no more often than `mutable_ttl`, pruning assets that disappear upstream.
- Serve each package's `<location>` as the github-relative download path so the client comes back to this remote, which **302-redirects** to the `releases_remote` (an existing generic github.com remote) that streams the actual bytes.

Reuse the existing `releases_remote` field as the redirect target — it already carries exactly this "downloads served by remote X" semantic end to end, so no new schema/model field is needed.

Extend the shared RPM metadata model with conflicts/obsoletes (JSONB columns, added idempotently) so both local and `github_rpm` repodata resolve upgrades and conflicts; the local upload path records them too.

## No-precache mechanics

- **Dependency metadata**: always from the ranged header fetch (header precedes payload; `rpm.Read` stops at the payload boundary), giving `dnf` full resolution. Default range 1 MiB, doubling to 16 MiB.
- **Checksum**: prefer the GitHub asset `digest` (no download); fall back to a one-time streamed sha256 only when absent. Header-only "minimal mode" (no deps) is rejected as a default because `dnf` needs accurate provides/requires and a correct pkgid checksum to install.

## Tests

Header-range parsing incl. the retry loop, digest-vs-computed checksum selection, repodata synthesis with the redirect-able `<location href>`, the 302 redirect path (and the guard when `releases_remote` is unset), asset pattern filtering, and stale-asset pruning. `go build`/`vet`/`test` green; pre-commit clean.

## Follow-ups

- `github_apk` / `github_deb` metadata-only remotes (same pattern; not in this PR).
- Terraform provider support for `artifactapi_remote_github_rpm` ships as a separate PR against `terraform-provider-artifactapi` (depends on this API surface).
