Gstore v0.1.0

Read the full release notes →

Transfers now run several chunks at a time — 4.3× faster downloads, 2.5× faster uploads, measured on a real link. Interrupted transfers resume in both directions, a dropped connection no longer ends a transfer, and there are Linux builds for the first time.

Downloads

Platform	Download
macOS (Apple Silicon)	Gstore-macos-arm64.dmg
macOS (Intel)	Gstore-macos-intel.dmg
Windows 64-bit	Gstore-windows-x64.zip
Linux x86_64	Gstore-linux-x64.tar.gz

Those links always resolve to the newest release. The Intel macOS build is produced by a best-effort job and may be absent.

Highlights

• Several chunks at once, in both directions. Four streams by default; raise with GSTORE_DOWNLOAD_STREAMS / GSTORE_UPLOAD_STREAMS.
• Downloads resume. Previously one timed-out chunk discarded the whole transfer — a 20 GB download could lose 19 GB.
• Upload resume reports real chunk sizes, and the whole-file checksum is cached rather than recomputed on every retry.
• A dropped connection retries instead of ending the transfer.
• Cancel is a pause, and quitting mid-transfer no longer aborts the app.
• Speed, ETA and a chunk counter in the progress line — and on macOS the percentage is finally visible at all.
• A log file, beside the index, naming the chunk and account when something fails.
• Linux builds.
• Update notices, so future releases announce themselves. This one cannot — the check ships in it.

First launch

These builds are not code-signed, so the OS will warn you.

• macOS — System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway". Apple Silicon and Intel builds are not interchangeable.
• Windows — SmartScreen: "More info" → "Run anyway". Unzip first and run Gstore.exe from the extracted folder.
• Linux — tar -xzf Gstore-linux-x64.tar.gz && ./Gstore/Gstore, keeping the binary next to its files.

macOS asks for your login keychain password once, so Gstore can store its encryption key. Choose "Always Allow".
