v1.2.1 — Observer leak fix

🐛 Bug fix

A MutationObserver was left running for every client-side navigation, so the extension got steadily heavier the longer a tab stayed open.

What changed

• initCherryPicker() now retires the previous page's observer before registering a new one, instead of stacking them.
• The observer is also disconnected entirely when navigating to a page with no commits on it, which never happened before.

Measured on a live GitLab commits page, counting observers that are actively watching the document:

Scenario	v1.2	v1.2.1
6 client-side navigations between commit pages	6 live	1 live
then navigating to a non-commit page	6 live	0 live

Most noticeable on GitLab, whose merge request tabs switch client-side far more than GitHub's do. No change to cherry placement or SHA extraction.

v1.2 - GitLab support

✨ New feature

Cherries now show up on GitLab as well as GitHub. Same one click, same git cherry-pick <sha> on your clipboard.

What changed

• Added GitLab across all three of its commit layouts: commit lists, single commit pages, and the merge request Commits tab.
• Anchored insertion to GitLab's "Copy commit SHA" control rather than row classes, so the button survives GitLab's utility-class churn.
• SHA extraction prefers the full 40-character hash everywhere — the MR Commits tab only exposes a short SHA in its label, so the full one is read from the commit link.
• Platform detection uses GitLab's page marker instead of a hostname list, so self-hosted instances work once granted host access.
• Coalesced MutationObserver bursts into one pass per frame, so commit-heavy pages rescan far less.

GitHub behaviour is unchanged.

Note

This release adds gitlab.com to the extension's host access, so Chrome will ask you to review the updated permissions.

v1.1 - Fix cherry icons on Commits page

🐛 Bug fix

Cherry icons stopped appearing on GitHub's Commits page and PR Commits tab after GitHub migrated both to its new React/Primer (prc-*) layout, which broke the extension's DOM selectors.

What changed

• Unified insertion around the new [data-testid="commit-row-item"] rows.
• SHA extraction now reads any /commit, /tree, or /changes link, falling back to the "Copy full SHA" control.
• The 🍒 button now sits next to the commit hash on both page types.
