- Backup .env file before removing old installation
- Restore .env file after extracting new version
- Fix both update and migration processes
- Ensure proper ownership and permissions on restored .env file
- Added SHA-based version tracking to avoid GitHub CDN caching issues
- Uses GitHub API to check latest commit SHA for the installer

- Set should_update_deps=true when Express version mismatch is found
- Previously, the installer would detect the mismatch but still skip npm install
- This was causing the path-to-regexp error to persist even after detection
The installer will now properly update dependencies when it detects
that Express version is not 4.19.2.

- Changed installer to always run npm install on updates, not just fresh installs
- Added Express version check even for tarball installations
- Forces dependency update if Express version doesn't match expected 4.19.2
- Removed manual fix script as it's no longer needed
The issue was that tarball installations include pre-built node_modules,
which prevented dependency updates when package.json changed.

Extended the CSS file recovery logic to fresh tarball installations,

Enhanced the CSS verification to actively recover the CSS file if it's
missing, empty, or corrupted after tarball extraction. The script now

will still get a working CSS file and proper frontend styling.

The install script was downloading from GitHub's source archive
(/archive/refs/tags/) which doesn't include built CSS assets, instead
of the release assets (/releases/download/) which do include the
pre-built output.css file.

installations by ensuring the script downloads the proper release
tarball that contains all built assets.

Enhance install script to automatically detect corrupted output.css files
that contain HTML error pages instead of CSS content (caused by previous
installation issues). When detected during tarball updates, the script
now automatically restores the CSS from the fresh tarball and verifies
the repair was successful.
This allows users with broken CSS installations to simply re-run the
installer to automatically fix frontend styling issues without manual
intervention.

The release script was checking for src/index.css but the build command
outputs to src/public/output.css. Update both the build verification
and essential files check to use the correct path.
This ensures the built CSS file is properly included and verified in
release tarballs.
Tarball installations come with pre-built CSS and omit dev dependencies
like tailwindcss. Skip CSS rebuilding for tarball installations since
the CSS should already be compiled and ready to use.
This fixes the 'Failed to rebuild CSS assets' warning that was causing
frontend styling issues in tarball installations.
