+# Concurrency policy, by context:
+#   - FEATURE branches / feature PRs → cancel superseded runs (per-ref group +
+#     cancel-in-progress): a newer push makes the older run redundant.
+#   - RELEASE-relevant contexts → NEVER superseded. Pushes to the release base
+#     branch (derived: the CLDMV_RELEASE_BASE var → the repo's default branch),
+#     to next/hotfixes, and the next/hotfixes → base release PRs each get a
+#     UNIQUE group per run (run_id appended), so nothing cancels them. During
+#     the burst of pushes a release makes to next/hotfixes (the feature squash,
+#     the post-hotfix base→next sync merge, the bot's `chore: bump version`),
+#     every run completes and posts a GREEN check instead of the earlier one
+#     being cancelled into a red X on the release PR. A bare
+#     `cancel-in-progress: false` is NOT enough — GitHub still cancels the
+#     middle PENDING run when a newer one queues; a unique group avoids it.
+# The base is NOT hardcoded to master/main — it derives the same way
+# resolve-release-base does (CLDMV_RELEASE_BASE override → default_branch).
+# next/hotfixes are the flow's fixed integration-branch names. github.head_ref
+# is set only on pull_request (the release PR's head → next/hotfixes);
+# github.ref carries the branch on push.
