What's New

Git Mismatch Detection & Auto-Fix

  • Detects when a git repo exists on one sync endpoint but not the other
  • "Fix Automatically" button initializes git on the missing side (reads remote URL and branch from the existing side)
  • Scans subdirectories for parent-directory sync roots
  • Shows manual fix commands as fallback when no remote is configured

Console Improvements

  • Dark theme inspired by Tokyo Night color palette
  • Color-coded log levels (info, commands, errors)
  • Full multi-line text selection via drag
  • Console panel visibility persists across app launches

UI Enhancements

  • Color-coded alpha (blue) and beta (purple) endpoint labels throughout the UI
  • Adjustable text size setting (System Default, Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large)
  • Refresh button in toolbar
  • Git checks re-run on manual refresh (Cmd+R)
  • Session data refreshes when selecting a sync session

Bug Fixes

  • Fix SSH tilde paths: expand ~ to $HOME for remote shell commands
  • Fix /bin/test path on macOS (was /usr/bin/test)
  • Use git branch --show-current instead of rev-parse HEAD (works on empty repos)
  • Log exit-code-1 as info instead of error in console
  • Rename MutagenKit to HelixKit
