Create a child theme of Twenty Twenty-Five to replace oik2012

[bobbingwide]

The current theme for officialcaravan.co.uk is oik2012.
It's a child theme of Twenty Twelve.
I want to replace the theme with a block based theme, created as a child theme of the latest default bundled WordPress theme Twenty Twenty-Five.

The theme should support the current functionality and improve on the display of custom content:

• Events (GIGS)
• Recordings (Discography)
• Tracks - each Recording consists of one or more Tracks

It should also be enhanced to support the display of such things as:

• Other recordings
• Lyrics
• Composer(s)
• Artist(s)

Some things that may not be needed initially

• Shop
• Membership
• Comments

The theme will be dependent upon logic implemented in the following plugins:

• https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik-events
• https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik-tunes

which are dependent upon

• https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik-dates
• https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik-fields
• https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik

We may use the advanced-query-loop plugin to enable context related queries in templates.
This may require hooking into certain filter functions.

To implement the required changes to the content we'll need to implement a number of migration routines

• Events - ai1ec_events to events
• Recordings
• Tracks

Oh bugger! When I used create-block-theme to Save changes the saved files appeared to come from Twenty Twenty-Five not my child theme. On reload the versions in the database had been deleted. I didn't notice anything strange with create-block-theme.
The unfortunate thing is that I hadn't taken any screenshots of the changes to the header and footer template parts, which means I'll have to make them all over again.
Next time I'll run save more often, and check the results.

I already knew something was wrong; I'd I checked the unexpected parts into the GitHub repo
with a comment of "Add several files. Not sure why though!" ( commit 40a94e9 ).
Deleting the parts from the repo didn't resolve the problem.
