Secure republication case study

BrickBlast: preparing a repository for secure republication

A case study on BrickBlast repository-history review, cleanup, release documentation, and republication.

Project overview

BrickBlast's public GitHub repository includes source, documentation, and releases Rev1 through Rev5.

The project spans desktop, browser, and mobile implementations.

Repository-history cleanup

Before republication, the repository history was reviewed and a hardcoded development password was removed.

Release notes also document compiler-warning cleanup, a publish-file collision fix, synchronized controls, and rebuilt packages.

Release documentation

Project documentation keeps platform notes, release history, and maintenance work in one public repository.

The case study shows how security cleanup and release communication fit into routine project maintenance.
