GitHub integration: board-level sync rules and per-board repository routing

Bring the GitHub integration in line with Linear and Jira: let each Featurebase board (category) route to its own GitHub repository, and let sync rules be scoped per board.

How it works today

  • Automatic push uses one repository for the whole workspace. It can be limited to selected categories, but every pushed post lands in that single repository.

  • GitHub sync rules map a GitHub issue state to a Featurebase status. A rule has no board field and no repository field, so rules cannot be scoped by board or by repo.

  • The repository is only selectable at push time, on a manual push. A post can end up linked to issues in several repositories that way, one push at a time.

  • One GitHub App installation per workspace.

Requested behaviour

Why it matters

Raised by a prospect running roughly 15 products, each with its own engineering team and its own repository. Without board-to-repository routing, only one team gets hands-off automatic sync and every other team has to push manually, or the company has to split into separate Featurebase workspaces purely to work around the integration.
