Release iCloud GUI 1.1 · DR-Tech-Ventures/icloud-gui

A record of every run is now kept at the destination, and automatic downloads can no
longer start a whole-library transfer on their own.

Added

Run log — .icloudgui-log.txt beside your photos, with a line per run start, per
failure and per run end. Failures record the filename, the asset identifier and the
reason, so a photo that did not make it can be traced back.

Previously failures lived only in memory and vanished when the app quit. For a backup
tool, what did not make it is the half that matters, and there was no record of it.
Finder tag writes are reported rather than swallowed, so a NAS share that rejects
extended attributes shows up in the log instead of quietly producing untagged files.
Look for NOTE Finder tags written on N of M files after a run.

Automatic downloads are capped at 200 items. Turning on "Download new photos
automatically" before a first full backup would previously begin transferring the
entire library unattended — potentially hundreds of gigabytes, with nothing watching
free space. Larger batches now say so and wait for a click.
Hidden and Recently Deleted moved from Library to a new Utilities section
at the bottom of the sidebar. Both normally read "—" because macOS withholds them, and
sitting directly beneath All Photos made the first three rows look broken.
--album and --group now work without --shot.
