Why it matters
Content-addressed release storage gives ForkMesh a concrete mechanism for release binaries addressed by SHA-256 instead of hidden mutable links. Release binaries live in a content-addressed store keyed by SHA-256, keeping the Git history lean while downloads stay verifiable end-to-end.
Delivery metadata is part of a project, not a separate dashboard that should disappear during a migration. In ForkMesh, content-addressed release storage addresses that need at the feature level, keeping the behavior close to the repository instead of buried in a detached hosted layer.
How ForkMesh handles it
ForkMesh handles content-addressed release storage through the same split it uses across the product: ForkMesh keeps runs, logs, artifacts, releases, quality signals, installers, and downloads close to the mirrored repository.
The behavior is intentionally narrow: Release binaries live in a content-addressed store keyed by SHA-256, keeping the Git history lean while downloads stay verifiable end-to-end. Outputs can be linked to commits and served by nodes instead of becoming opaque hosted-only assets.
Where it fits
Use content-addressed release storage when shipping, validation, and release assets need to remain attached to the preserved repository.
It pairs with the rest of CI, releases & distribution because Content-addressed release storage keeps release binaries addressed by SHA-256 instead of hidden mutable links connected to the repository, its signatures, and the nodes that serve it.
