Preferences gets a switch that asks GitHub once a day for the latest
release and shows a banner over the sidebar when it is newer. Off by
default. Packages whose package manager brings updates install the
marker share/proton-drive-linux/managed-updates, which hides the switch.

The spec builds from the tag archive and a vendored crates tarball when
git_dir is not defined, so COPR can build it without network access.
release.yml publishes the vendor tarball and submits the build to COPR
after the release is published.

Readers asked whether the client can be trusted with their files. The
threat model in ARCHITECTURE.md is written for contributors, so
docs/SECURITY_MODEL.md summarises it for users: encryption comes from
the SDK and rPGP, sign-in uses SRP, what is stored where and how it is
protected, who can reach the daemon, every network connection, what the
client does not protect against, and how each package is built and
signed. It says that there has been no independent audit.
It is linked from the README, the documentation index and SECURITY.md.
