Version 0.8.0 (2024/05/12)

Features:
- MacOS server / cli / gui!
- Reworked how notifications get sent, they now are sent based on connection id and not user id (this means that if the same user is connected from 2 machines, he's up to date with notifications)
- Tooltips now have a delay before showing
- Moved Open App Folder from Debug to File menu
- Changed font to be 18pt by default, this way if somebody thinks font is too small they can scale it down and look better than scaling smaller font up

--------

Version 0.7.2 (2024/05/02)

Features:
- Added support for defining default app to launch for file / extension
- Double-Click now launches default app for that file (if defined)
- Alt + Double-Click now launches diff app depending on context (i.e. in history it launches with that version and the previous one, with other panels it uses local version with previous)
- Refactored how history diff menu is handled, now when in the history it will compare the version from that cl and not the local version
- Added support for shift + click in changes to select ranges within same changelist
- Ipv6 address input support in format [ip]:port
- Upgraded jai to 0.1.089
- Upgraded glfw to 3.4
- Upgraded imgui to 1.90.5
- Upgraded OpenGL to be 4.1 to match between Windows and upcoming MacOS version

Fixes:
- Server not clearing auth token when it was expired and the user logged in with password
- Server not loading the license
- Horizontal scrollbars now always visible to prevent flickering edge case

--------

Version 0.7.1 (2024/04/20)

Fixes:
- Fixed branch creation when we wouldn't immediately switch to it
- Fixed branch graph being broken after new branch was created until ark was relaunched
- Fixed reconcile not handled correctly when files with the same start had to be reconciled (e.g. deleting folder/file.txt and folder/file.txt_old)

--------

Version 0.7.0 (2024/04/10)

Features:
- Communication encryption, via TLS. Servers create their own certificate / private key on launch for convenience, but also supports dropping one there
- Login refactored so that the server now tells you if you're setting password or not, and if so you're now presented with confirm password field
- Changed logging to be tied to connection
- Started changing how logging is handled so that in the future we can more easily get bug reports that hide any important data
- Reworked how the whole network was setup. Now memory usage is far more under control when pushing huge shelves

Fixes: 
- Fixed cli clients not saving logs

--------

Version 0.6.6 (2024/03/17)

Fixes:
- Changed how listen sockets are setup in order to allow immediate reconnect if crashed
- Fixed deserializing corrupt network messages (e.g. random ips connecting to server)
- Fixed current selected workspace not being properly saved / loaded
- Fixed crash from right click on cl -> download changes when there wasn't already a version of the file locally
- Fixed adding new project
- Fixed bug that would cause to never reload .ark_ignore when it didn't have any entries
- Fixed when OS discards file system events inside a child folder also discarding events from files in upper levels that we'd never know were changed
- Fixed launching server without -port parameter would use the default 9000 port instead of the port saved in the server config file

--------

Version 0.6.5 (2024/03/13)

Features:
- New ignore / lock file semantics. Please check https://ark-vcs.com/documentation.html for more information (tl;dr: * supported in the middle and ! at the start of entries for exclusion)
- New Ignore Inspector panel (Views->Ignore Inspector), to help you understand why something is or isn't ignored in your project
- Refactored how ws_files are created, including caching of relative paths

Fixes:
- .ark_ignore file incorrectly reloaded when we couldn't open the file (e.g. text editor had a hold on it). We now will keep retrying until we achieve success
- Client crash when opening a workspace that is in a changelist that doesn't exist in this project
- When the server receives Ctrl+C or crashes we try to close the listen socket in order to be able to bind to it straight away

--------

Version 0.6.4 (2024/02/26)

Features:
- Windows version now has an icon, making it more distinguisable in the taskbar

Fixes:
- Bug that would disconnect new users without password with unknown user error
- Bug adding / editing connection that wouldn't properly set default host / port

--------

Version 0.6.3 (2024/02/19)

Fixes:
- Improved performance building the branch merges in changelist history when multiple branches are involved
- Fixed horizontal scrollbars in log, changes and changelist details panels
- Changed diff context menu to show the last 10 entries and place older ones under a sub-menu

Fixes:
- Fixed bug introduced with utf8 fix from 0.6.1 that would make committing a lot of files extremely sluggish at the start
- Refactored network packet strategy in order to be more friendly for remote connections and Linux
- Limited the amount of requests handled, to limit the amount of memory allocated when pushing very big changelists

--------

Version 0.6.1 (2024/02/07)

Features:
- License changes, now Indie and Business licenses include the free seat from the Free version

Fixes:
- Bug with not using utf8 when trying to get the ws_file based on path
- Bug preventing opening shelf window when the workspace changelist it is tied to is empty
- Incorrect determination of common root changelist when trying to switch between branches if there's a non committed cl along the way

--------

Version 0.6.0 (2024/02/05)

Features:
- Linux server support
- Linux cli support
- Crash dump support: minidumps in Windows, fulldumps in Linux (requires gcore installed, which is part of gdb)
- Seats-based server license support (free version has 1 seat)
- Files are now stored compressed, making servers use 40-50% less space depending on data
- Cli commands implemented / improved: server, init, switch-branch, get, user-list, user-add, user-edit, project-list, branch-list, branch-add, changes, revert, commit
- Revamp of how cli commands are handled (more commands added, and now parameters are explicity,  e.g. -email instead of -e)
- git-import cli command, which can be used for copying 1 branch to an Ark server (this was added for testing purposes, but may be useful for somebody)

Fixes:
- Bugs on server when a client would crash in the middle of a shelve
- Bugs on client when the server would crash in the middle of a get / shelve

Notes:
- From this version on, the zip will include ark.exe and ark-linux binaries for Windows and Linux respectively. Currently only x64 versions
- If you open an older project, depending on the size, it may take a while before ark loads and becomes responsive, given that in this release we upgrade the servers in order to compress all files stored

--------

Version 0.5.1 (2023/11/03)

Fixes:
- Manual merging not launching merge app
- Merging branches with multiple changelists that changed the same file not identifying that there was no conflicts

--------

Version 0.5.0 (2023/11/02)

Features:
- Added branching and merging support (full + cherry pick)
- New history panel more focused on visibility of branches
- Added branch colors, which can be changed and synced across the whole project
- Added Keep Theirs / Ours merge options in addition to Merge Manually

- Files are now alphabetically ordered in workspace changelists
- Bumped data version to 3

Fixes:
- Fixed lock assets not properly handled on launch
- Fixed crash when children files would get asset ids before the parent ids were received

Note:
- There were a lot of changes to saved formats to support branches, so this is the only version that will upgrade from versions < 0.5.0. From the next update, all that code to support these data version changes will be removed since it doesn't make sense for the project to carry on that tech debt

--------

Version 0.4.1 (2023/08/11)

Features:
- Added support for "unique" utf8

Fixes:
- Improved situations that because of way Windows would flag FS changes inside folders, it would cause Ark to reconcile the whole project when it didn't need to

--------

Features:
- Added locking support
- Added notifications (i.e. one directional messages between client and server)

- Added preference to choose if you want to have the console for the built-in server visible or not

- Normalized rendering of ws_cls with multi-line comments across multiple places

--------
