Releases

Dispatch 0.5.0

Workspaces as folders of files (desktop). On the Workspaces page, Link to a folder… keeps a workspace as plain files, ready for git:
- one file per request, environment and flow
- secret values stay on your device and are never written
- Open a workspace folder… adds a workspace from a teammate's clone
Outside changes are never overwritten. If a file changes outside Dispatch (an editor, git pull, even while Dispatch is closed), Dispatch leaves it alone and shows it as a conflict. You choose Use the folder's version (a backup is taken first) or Keep mine.
Safer collection folders. Collections linked to their own folder get the same protection. Before, an edit after a git pull could silently undo the pull.
Not yet: live updates while a file changes (Dispatch notices outside changes when it next writes, when it starts, or when you click Reload from folder), and running workspace folders from the CLI. Both are coming in later releases.
Open source. Dispatch is now public under the MIT licence.

Design: docs/DESIGN-linked-workspaces.md. Includes everything in 0.4.0–0.4.4.

Installers:

Windows (.msi, .exe), Linux x64/ARM64 (.deb, .rpm, AppImage) and macOS (universal .dmg).
They aren't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper will warn.
The Windows .msi installs for all users and needs administrator rights.

Windows test plan: #2.
