Recent builds#

Patterns worth noticing#
Reading a few weeks of changelog rather than individual entries, three themes stand out:
Diff review is a priority. Collapsing large diffs, a collapse-all toggle, diff scope switching. Someone is using this on real, large changes and finding the friction.
Mobile is getting deliberate attention. An iOS git progress overlay is not something you build by accident. Combined with Tailscale work and QR pairing, the remote story is being taken seriously. Mobile guide →
Thread lifecycle is being worked out. Snoozing, settled threads staying accessible, branch settings no longer inherited. These are the problems you only discover after running many threads over many days.
