This update enhances the build process by ensuring that the package definition file (PKGBUILD) is automatically updated with the current application version and release number. Changes are applied across both local build scripts and CI/CD workflows to maintain consistency. This prevents manual synchronization errors when building releases.
- Updates PKGBUILD version fields using package.json
- Ensures PKGBUILD is staged during final commit in CI/CD
- Improves robustness of the automated build pipeline
The workflow now sets up a Rust toolchain only for the Ubuntu
22.04 runner. This ensures Rust-based components can compile
reliably without affecting other platforms.
- Add conditional Rust toolchain install for ubuntu-22.04
The workflow now passes a per-platform NO_STRIP setting into the
Tauri build environment. This allows builds to retain symbols when
needed, improving debugging and crash analysis without changing the
default behavior for other targets.
- Add matrix no_strip values for Windows and Ubuntu
- Export NO_STRIP into the build environment for Tauri
The CI workflow now builds a single bundle per run, adds Linux
AppImage output, and updates the Tauri version using a Node script.
The publishing tool is extended to recognize Linux artifacts,
select a primary artifact based on the target platform, and merge
platform entries into an existing latest.json when present.
- Limit matrix parallelism and pass bundle targets to Tauri
- Update updater platform handling and latest.json merging
- Add Linux Tauri config for AppImage bundling
The `uv` tool is expected to be pre-installed on the runner or handled by an earlier workflow step, making its explicit installation within this job redundant.
This change introduces a comprehensive auto-update mechanism for the application and significant improvements to the integrated Git client experience.
Key features include:
- **Automated Release Workflow:** A new Gitea Actions workflow (`app_builder.yaml`) and a Python `cicd_tool` are added to automatically build, sign, and upload release artifacts to S3-compatible storage (MinIO) upon a new release. This also generates the `latest.json` file required by the updater.
- **Tauri Updater Integration:** The `tauri-plugin-updater` is integrated into the application, enabling it to check for and apply updates seamlessly.
- **Robust Git Push Handling:** The application now intelligently handles non-fast-forward push failures by prompting the user to perform a pull/merge operation before re-attempting the push.
- **Enhanced File Comparison:** A new `compare_file_to_parent` command is introduced, allowing detailed file diffs against a commit's direct parent, including the "empty tree" for initial commits.
- **Explorer Panel Improvements:** "Expand All" and "Collapse All" functionality is added to the file explorer for better navigation.
