New release?

[Cyberax]

Hi!

Just a small request: is it possible to cut a new release? There were quite a few fixes since the last one.

The next release will be in March, see the release notes for version 1.2.0, namely this section.

Ghostty will move to a 6-month release cycle for major/minor releases, with the next minor release (1.3.0) planned for March 2026. A March/September release cycle aligns well with many major Linux distributions and macOS. Patch releases (e.g. 1.2.1) will be made as needed on an unscheduled basis.

This is a relatively long release cycle for modern applications, but lets the development team focus on large, impactful features with enough time to stabilize in tip releases. For packagers, it avoids the churn of packaging new releases frequently. And the alignment with major OS releases lets us ensure we ship major releases that work well on new OS versions.

Until then you can build from source or set auto-update-channel = tip in your config if you're on Mac to get the latest changes.
