# Refactor: Streamline Release Metadata Handling in Sync Service

This ticket summarizes the refactoring changes made to improve consistency and efficiency in how release metadata is handled.

**Changes Implemented:**

1.  **`ReleaseSyncer.mjs` Refactoring:**
    *   The `releases` member within `ReleaseSyncer` was changed from an array to an object, keyed by `tagName`.
    *   The `fetchAndCacheReleases` method was updated to populate `this.releases` directly as this object structure.
    *   The `syncNotes` method was adjusted to iterate over `this.releases` as an object.

2.  **`SyncService.mjs` Optimization:**
    *   The redundant `releaseCache` creation and assignment block was removed.
    *   `newMetadata.releases` now directly receives the `ReleaseSyncer.releases` object, eliminating an unnecessary intermediate transformation.

These changes streamline the data flow, reduce redundant processing, and align the handling of release metadata with that of issue metadata for improved consistency.
