The 0002_admin_password.sql migration referenced a 'users' table that
no longer exists — auth moved from Auth.js Credentials to Neon Auth
(Better Auth), which owns its own neon_auth.user schema.
The migration was being recorded in _migrations to skip, but a fresh DB
or new environment would fail with 'relation users does not exist'.
scripts/migrate.js already had an ensureTracked() repair path that
auto-marks 0002 applied when the users.password_hash column exists,
so legacy DBs still work. For fresh DBs, this rewrite replaces the
broken ALTER with a no-op SELECT 1, preserving the 0002 slot so
0003_*.sql onward numbering is unaffected.
Also add .gitignore entries for local-only QA artifacts:
- db/migrations/0000_qa_*.sql (Neon Auth stub for local audit)
- db/seeds/2026-qa-*.sql (production-scale audit seed)
- docs/qa/ (local audit plan/inventory/bugs)
These files should never apply to production (the migration stub
would conflict with real neon_auth.user; the seed is 1000s of rows).
Tracking progress in /tmp/refactor-routecomm.md.
