v0.8.1
What's Changed
Diagnostic release for the auto-update flow. The "downloading then can't connect to git server" failure had no breadcrumb beyond a transient UI string; this release fixes that.
- Update log at
data/logs/updates.log— every update check, download progress milestone, and error is now persisted. Open it from Settings → Updates → "View update log". - Actionable error messages — the failure shown in Settings now includes the underlying error code (
ENOTFOUND,ECONNRESET,ERR_UPDATER_*) and the phase ("while checking for updates" vs "while downloading"), so a failed metadata fetch is distinguishable from a stalled installer download. - Defense in depth — added
release-assets.githubusercontent.comto the network-filter allowlist alongside the legacyobjects.githubusercontent.com(GitHub's current asset CDN host for release downloads).
This release does not directly fix the underlying download failure — it surfaces it. The next failed update attempt on a v0.8.1+ install will be diagnosable from the log file rather than guesswork.
