Tart Manager v1.4.0 lets you pull images from the default registry, ghcr.io/cirruslabs, in Settings. Delete VM can now keep the VM's disk as a file. This release also makes job cancel more reliable.
Added
- Pull from the default registry. Open Settings → Storage → Registries and select Default. Select an image from the list and click Pull. The image then appears on the Images page, where you can clone it to a VM.
- Custom registries. Select Custom to sign in to or out of a registry that you enter. Sign-ins that you already have stay in tart's Keychain items.
- Pull jobs. A pull shows in the sidebar Jobs section, with progress and cancel.
Changed
- Delete VM. You no longer type the VM's name to confirm. A new Remove the VM disk with the VM option, on by default, lets you keep the disk as a file in the
Kept Disksfolder of the VM storage folder. The option is not available for stacked VMs. - Registry URL. The field accepts an
httpsURL as well as a host. - New VM quick picks. The menu now shows the same image list as Settings. Tart Manager makes at most one attempt in 24 hours to download this list from
raw.githubusercontent.com. If the download fails, it uses its saved or built-in list. - Launch check. Tart Manager no longer looks for an installed tart while the selected bundled tart works. The warning about an older selected tart does not show in this state.
Fixed
- Job cancel. A cancel that arrives while a clone, pull, or other job is starting now stops its tart process.
