Goal

Finish the deploy and live-run verification for the auto-update repo-ownership cleanup.

Context

The repo has already been changed so auto-update Git operations run as the owning user instead of root. The remaining work is deployment and verification on a real host.

Acceptance Checklist

  • Deploy the updated auto-update configuration.
  • Trigger a real auto-update run.
  • Confirm the run pulls/builds successfully.
  • Confirm the repo does not accumulate root-owned files after the run.
  • Confirm the old ownership-bounce logic is no longer needed.

Verification

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#electra
just auto-update-run-now
find /home/nimmo/nixos-config ! -user nimmo

Success means the auto-update run completes and the repo remains entirely user-owned.
