Full notes

Added

• Browse the whole repository, not just its changed files. The file panel could only ever show
  files git had noticed. The viewer was always capable of opening any path, but the panel simply had
  no way to list one, so everything you had not edited was unreachable from inside the app. A
  toggle in each card's header now swaps the changed-file list for the entire working tree, using
  the same viewer, the same icons and the same panel. A file that IS changed keeps its status
  letter, so switching modes loses no signal, and the toggle sits outside the changed-files
  section on purpose: a clean repo is precisely when you want to read the code.
• Ignored paths are included, and the tree loads one folder at a time. Showing dist/ and
  vendored bundles is the point: that is exactly what git ls-files hides and what you
  occasionally need to open. It is also what makes a whole-tree listing impossible rather than
  merely slow: a working checkout here runs past 200,000 files once node_modules is counted,
  seconds of disk to enumerate and a payload the browser would then have to turn into 200,000
  nodes. So a folder's contents are fetched the moment it is opened (about a millisecond, a few
  dozen entries) and folders nobody opens are never walked. Folders therefore start collapsed,
  the opposite of the changed-files tree.
• Find a file anywhere in the repo. Searching only the folders already expanded would look
  like it searched the repository and quietly not have, so the search walks the real tree,
  breadth-first, so shallow matches, nearly always the wanted ones, are found before the walk
  reaches a dependency tree. Bounded by both a result cap and a wall-clock budget, and it says
  when the answer is a head rather than the whole set. Clicking a folder result clears the query
  and opens the tree down to it.

Both new endpoints are owner-only. Reading a path you were handed is a different capability from
enumerating a repository, and the listing covers ignored files, which is exactly where .env
files and local credentials live. A view share stays "look at what I changed", not "walk my disk".

Changed

• A click no longer waits behind the background work. Local git reads share one daemon-wide
  pool, and it was two slots deep with a plain first-come queue that had no idea who was waiting.
  Boot hydration fans out over every known repo with sixteen workers and the filesystem watcher
  runs sixteen concurrent refreshes, so expanding one card could put its git status behind two
  dozen reads draining two at a time. Seconds of "Loading changes…" caused entirely by queue
  position rather than by anything about the repo. It is also why some repos felt instant and
  others did not: which ones was luck.

  The queue now has a foreground lane, marked once at the HTTP boundary, because an inbound request is
  the definition of "someone is waiting for this", and nothing else reaches it, so background work
  cannot pick the marker up by accident. The pool also widens from two to half the machine's cores
  (clamped to 4–8): a single card expand issues four reads, so at two it could not fill even its
  own request in one pass. Background work is already coalesced and retried, so deferring it
  briefly costs nothing you can see.

Fixed

• A greyed-out view option now says why, in the menu. The reason lived only in a title
  attribute, which is close to invisible, given the switch dims to 45% and a native tooltip wants a second
  of hover on a control nobody suspects is disabled. Every row in the changed-files view options
  needs "Diff statistics" turned on, and that ships off, so on a fresh install the whole popover
  was inert while looking like an ordinary menu that simply ignored you. Nothing was broken; it
  just never said so.

Install

Download the bundle for your platform, extract the whole folder, and run the RepoYeti executable.
No install step or runtime is required; keep the bundled web folder beside the executable.

Platform	Asset
Linux (x64)	repoyeti-linux-x64.tar.gz
macOS (Apple silicon)	repoyeti-macos-arm64.tar.gz
Windows (x64)	repoyeti-windows-x64.zip

Source checkouts can update in-app. Portable-bundle installs update by downloading and extracting
the newer archive; nothing is installed without your say-so.
