In https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/d835aba702caa3efc7788c7c1c0b1e11638ee4c1/packages/app-builder-lib/src/util/yarn.ts#L70, I see npm_config_disturl is https://electronjs.org/headers, can I config this value?

Can u try to delete mac.target? Because auto-update will download .zip file for updating the app, not .dmg file

As for auto-update to work with MacOS, your app need to be sign with apple developer account and notarize.
