gpc Rollout Management

Overview

Use this skill when rollout state needs to change after the initial upload.

Workflow

1. Inspect current live track state first.
   Use gpc tracks get --package-name com.example.app --track production.
2. Preview desired release differences before mutating the track.
   Use gpc diff track --package-name com.example.app --track production --status inProgress --version-codes 123456.
3. Promote between tracks safely with a dry run first.
   Use gpc release promote --package-name com.example.app --from-track internal --to-track production --dry-run.
4. Halt or roll back only with explicit confirmation.
   Use gpc rollback --package-name com.example.app --track production --confirm.

Use Cases
