Summary

Removes all FreeCAD-upstream and GitHub-specific artifacts from the repository. Gitea equivalents (.gitea/workflows/, .gitea/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/, .gitea/pull_request_template.md) are already in place.

Changes

Deleted (66 files, -4,761 lines)

.github/ — entire directory: 33 GitHub Actions workflows, 12 reusable actions, 4 FreeCAD issue templates, PR template, 8 problem matchers, GUI test script, 7 FreeCAD screenshots (~3.3 MB), Dependabot config, labels, codespell ignore
.packit.yaml — Fedora COPR packaging (we use package/rattler-build/)
SECURITY.md — FreeCAD-specific (FPA bounty program, GitHub security advisories)

Updated

.pre-commit-config.yaml — removed .github| from files regex
.gitignore — removed !/.github/ whitelist entry

Rewritten

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md — rebranded for Kindred Create community, reporting via git.kindred-systems.com/kindred/create/issues
PRIVACY_POLICY.md — rewritten to cover Kindred Create specifics: Silo integration, update checker, origin system, local storage

Follow-up

src/XDGData/ contains FreeCAD-branded metainfo, desktop, and MIME files (org.freecad.FreeCAD.*) that reference the now-deleted .github/images/. This is a separate rebranding task.

Closes #367

Build and Test / build (pull_request) Successful in 29m26s

Details

- Replace org.freecad.FreeCAD.desktop with kindred-create.desktop
- Replace org.freecad.FreeCAD.metainfo.xml.in with Kindred Create
  metainfo (new description, Kindred URLs, kindred-create app ID)
- Replace org.freecad.FreeCAD.xml with kindred-create.xml (adds .kc
  MIME type alongside .fcstd)
- Replace FreeCAD.thumbnailer.in with kindred-create.thumbnailer.in
- Update XDGData/CMakeLists.txt for new filenames
- Update src/Gui/CMakeLists.txt icon installs: use kindred-create
  icons from resources/ (all sizes 16-512 + SVG) instead of renaming
  freecad-icon-*.png to org.freecad.FreeCAD.png
- Update freecad-thumbnailer.in default icon to kindred-create.png
- Update AppImage create_bundle.sh to use kindred-create desktop/icon

Remaining org.freecad.FreeCAD references are macOS bundle IDs
(MainWindow.cpp, MacAppBundle/) and packaging fallbacks — separate
rebranding tasks.
