ci: halt a track instead of sending it an empty release list - #94
Merged
Conversation
An empty releases list does not stop a track serving. Play accepts the PUT, commits the edit and keeps the old release: promoting vc89 to beta while "clearing" alpha left alpha still serving vc86, with the run reporting success. Flipping each live release to `halted` is what actually stops distribution, so --clear-track becomes --halt-track and does that.

An empty
releaseslist does not stop a track serving. Play accepts the PUT, commits the edit, and carries on serving the old release: promoting vc89 to beta while "clearing" alpha left alpha still on vc86, and the run reported success. Flipping each live release tohaltedis what actually stops distribution, so--clear-trackbecomes--halt-trackand does that.The old behaviour is now a killed mutant rather than a comment: making
halted()return an empty list fails the suite. Halting a track that already serves nothing aborts before any write.
