Community images were reading/bumping -trunk.N from the shared release repo (github.repository, = armbian/ci) and publishing there, so they reused nightly's version instead of getting their own, and the images landed next to nightly's. Add a release_target_repository input to complete-artifact-matrix.yml / build-images-chunk.yml (default empty -> github.repository, so nightly and every other track are unchanged) and route the version lookup, release creation, mark-latest, CDN mirror pull_repository, image upload and torrent GitHub webseed through it. build-community.yml sets it to armbian/community, so community now reads/bumps its own -trunk.N there and publishes its images and releases into armbian/community. Operational notes: - The release token (ACCESS_TOKEN) must have write access to armbian/community. - armbian/community needs a seed -trunk.N release; the first community run after this should pass versionOverride to start the series (same as any nightly track), otherwise version_prep errors with "no existing <base>-trunk.N release".

The nightly-path version bump sorted trunk releases by createdAt and took the last. armbian/community's releases were bulk-imported with one shared timestamp, so the sort was arbitrary: it picked 26.8.0-trunk.170 and bumped to 171 — a tag that already exists — while the real max was trunk.417. A --limit 100 could also truncate a large series below its max. Sort by version instead ([major,minor,patch] then N) and raise --limit, so the next version is always max(N)+1 (e.g. community 417 -> 418) regardless of import timestamps. No effect on repos with normal per-release timestamps (armbian/ci), where highest-N and newest-createdAt coincide. Signed-off-by: Igor Pecovnik <igor@armbian.com>
Refine the community targeting: the -trunk.N series lives only in armbian/ci and only nightly bumps it. Community reads that same series from armbian/ci and reuses the last trunk number as-is (reuse_latest_trunk=yes), so its images carry the current nightly version -- just published to armbian/community instead of armbian/ci. Version SOURCE is github.repository (armbian/ci) for every track again; only the release TARGET differs per track (release_target_repository). Drops the earlier "community bumps its own series out of armbian/community" behaviour, which reused stale bulk-imported tags. Signed-off-by: Igor Pecovnik <igor@armbian.com>
Replace community's naive "always reuse" with a monotonic -trunk.N counter shared by armbian/ci (nightly, the leader) and armbian/community (peer): - LEADER (nightly) always cuts the next number: max(N across ci+community)+1, so a nightly bump always lands above community. - A non-leader target (community) reuses the leader's current number when the leader is ahead of it (community tracks the fresh nightly version); if it is already level with the leader, it cuts the next number instead. So a second community run with no nightly in between still bumps. Both callers list armbian/community in trunk_peer_repositories so either track sees the whole counter. Replaces the reuse_latest_trunk flag. Version compare is sort -V (handles base + N, and repos with bulk-imported equal timestamps). Signed-off-by: Igor Pecovnik <igor@armbian.com>

release_target_repositoryinput (default →github.repository, so nightly/others unchanged), threaded through version lookup, release creation, mark-latest, CDN mirror pull, image upload, and torrent webseed.

Both callers list the other intrunk_peer_repositories, so either track sees the whole counter.max(N across ci+community) + 1.
