v0.27.2

What's New in v0.27.2

Two fixes for live updates, both found on a real workspace after v0.27.1.

Fixed

• A local workspace no longer gets stuck polling as if it were a server workspace. If a workspace's .beads folder still carried a server-mode leftover — an old dolt-server.port file, or a registry entry from before it switched to embedded mode — Beadbox could choose the wrong way to watch it, its polls were refused by bd, and the list silently stopped updating until you clicked Refresh. The workspace's own metadata.json now decides the mode, whatever an old port file or registry entry says.
• "Live updates paused" now appears even when updates never worked. The indicator used to arm only after the first successful poll, so a workspace whose polling failed from the start showed nothing at all. It now shows within 30 seconds whenever the change stream is known to be stalled, and clears as soon as updates resume. Refresh works in every state.
• The version number is shown plainly wherever it appears in the app.

From the community

Thanks to Sergey Belov (@arikon) for the groundwork behind an experimental, off-by-default read path that ships in this release but is not yet enabled for anyone.

Requires the beads CLI, version 1.1.0 or newer.
