v2.0.0 Release Notes
Released on Monday, July , 2024. This release marks a complete architectural overhaul of the Gitset platform, transitioning to a 'Bring Your Own AI' (BYOAI) model and open-sourcing the entire codebase. It introduces a powerful new companion CLI and a suite of developer-centric tools, alongside significant SEO enhancements.
Core Platform: Introducing Gitset v2 Architecture
This release represents a complete rewrite of the Gitset platform, moving from a managed AI service to a Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI) model and introducing a new suite of tools designed for developer control and flexibility. The entire v1 codebase has been replaced, and Gitset is now open source under the MPL-2.0 license.
The previous token-based subscription plans, Lemon Squeezy billing, and Gitset-managed AI access have been removed. Existing subscriptions were refunded prior to this change; no billing system is active in this version. Users now directly manage their AI provider costs.
New Features & Tools
- Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI): Connect your own keys for Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Gitset no longer manages AI access or costs.
- Companion CLI: A new command-line interface (
@gitset-dev/clion npm) runs entirely on your local machine, requiring no account or backend calls. - Label Pack: Create and reuse custom label sets to apply to any repository.
- Backup Automator: Schedule repository mirror backups via GitHub Actions, fully owned and managed by you.
- Repo Profiler: AI-drafted repository descriptions and topics to enhance discoverability.
- Template System: A shared system across the web app and CLI, offering a curated library of templates and the ability to save your own.
Removed Features
- Token-based subscription plans (Basic/Pro/Enterprise) and Lemon Squeezy billing.
- Gitset MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration.
- The Electron desktop application.
- Code Decommenter and Dependencies Handler tools.
- The
gitset_keyremote authentication system (replaced by GitHub OAuth for web and local-only config for CLI). - Gemini-only AI processing (replaced by the multi-provider BYOAI model).
SEO
- Corrected Homepage Metadata: The homepage title, Open Graph, and Twitter tags now accurately reflect the "Draft. Refine. Ship." tagline.
- Site-wide Canonical Tags: A site-wide canonical tag, manifest link, and Apple Touch Icon have been added to the base layout, ensuring consistent indexing and preventing duplicate content issues.
- Enhanced Tool Page Metadata: All eight tool pages now include unique and accurate metadata, including descriptions, Open Graph, and Twitter Card tags.
- Structured Data for Gitset and CLI: JSON-LD (Organization + SoftwareApplication) has been added to the homepage to help Google understand Gitset and the Gitset CLI as related products.
- Documentation Page Structured Data: The
/docspage now includes TechArticle + SoftwareSourceCode structured data, along with Open Graph and Twitter tags, as it serves as the primary landing page for the CLI. - Sitemap Improvements: The
/docspage has been added to the sitemap. Auth-gated/tools/*pages, which redirect anonymous visitors, have been removed from the sitemap to ensure accuracy.
Bug Fixes
- Changelog Source Correction: The changelog now correctly fetches releases from the
gitset-dev/gitsetrepository.
