WoW Interface (Customized Production Fork)

This repository is the production Interface used by the game client at:

World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface

It is intentionally separated from the WowUp-managed vendor source and exists to keep:

1. Official addon updates from maintainers.
2. Local custom patches and behavior fixes.

Repository Model

There are two local repositories in this setup:

1. World of Warcraft/WOWUP/Interface

   • Vendor/source-of-truth mirror for addon updates installed by WowUp.
   • No local customizations should live there.
   • Used as read-only sync input.

2. World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface (this repo)

   • Production fork used by the game.
   • Contains local customizations on top of vendor updates.
   • Pushed to GitHub for history, backup, and collaboration.

Git Remotes and Branches

This repository uses:

• origin -> GitHub (git@github.com:tucomel/wow-interface.git)
• wowup-local -> local vendor repo path (WOWUP/Interface)

wowup-local is configured as no-push (read-only for sync).

Branch strategy:

• wowup: local mirror branch of wowup-local/main (vendor baseline).
• customized: production branch with all custom patches.

Daily Workflow

When WowUp updates addons in the vendor repo:

1. Run in this repo:
   • .tuco/scripts/resync.sh
2. The script:
   • Fetches wowup-local.
   • Fast-forwards wowup.
   • Rebases customized on top of wowup.
   • Runs optional hooks (for example FontMagic custom font sync).
   • Optionally pushes to GitHub.

Current Scope of Customizations

This repository may include:

• Addon-level bug fixes.
• Local compatibility patches.
• Quality-of-life behavior changes.
• Custom media/font automation scripts.

The vendor repo (WOWUP/Interface) must remain clean and uncustomized.

Purpose

The goal is to preserve a stable and reproducible production UI where:

• Upstream addon updates are easy to absorb.
• Local custom behavior is not lost after updates.
• Every production state can be tracked and restored from Git history.
