v5.6.3
You can now check which version of msg you're running. Type
/msg --versionin any project and you get one line back. This matters most right after you install or update — msg lives outside your projects, so an update that quietly failed used to look exactly like one that worked.
✨ New
/msg --versiontells you which release is installed, from any repo. Alongside the version it shows the exact build and the date you installed it, so you can tell a fresh copy from one that's been sitting there — the version number alone wouldn't change if you reinstalled the same release.- Installing now confirms the version as it goes, so you see what you're getting at the moment you get it rather than hoping it took.
