GitDesktop v0.9.1

Changed

• The comment box now keeps a separate draft for each discussion, pull request,
  issue, and History commit you're working in, so you can switch between them
  and pick up where you left off.
• Pull request and issue actions explain why they're unavailable while the one
  you picked is still loading — Review…, merge, approve, request changes,
  close, reopen, the draft toggle, sub-issues and the metadata pickers all say
  so — and a missing write or triage permission is named ahead of the loading
  note. Reaction and upvote buttons hold the same way — in discussions too —
  until the one you picked is on screen.

Fixed

• When a cherry-pick onto another branch can't complete, the automatic
  rollback returns the target branch to its prior tip and puts you back on
  the branch you started from; if that rollback itself can't complete, the
  error names the target's pre-run tip and the exact commands to recover.
• Dropdowns read the same collapsed as they do open — the session composer's
  agent, model, and effort pickers, the research intent picker, the pull request
  review provider picker, and the selects across Settings and repository
  settings all show their full labels.
• Error toasts name the failure you actually hit: a push, checkout, or fetch
  error stays on screen as itself even when a commit message or file name
  mentions conflicts, and a paused cherry-pick reads as a cherry-pick however
  the commit it stopped on is titled.
• Dialog text stays put while a dialog closes — confirms keep the branch, tag,
  commit, file, task, pull request, or repository they were about, and the error
  and AI result viewers keep their contents, all the way through the closing
  animation.
• Switching between light and dark re-colors highlighted code instantly: diffs
  and webhook delivery payloads pick up the new theme's syntax colors in place.
• Reconnecting a GitHub account picks up the token scopes it just granted right
  away, so scope-gated actions become available immediately.
• Local PR branch fields now accept only real branch names — a Git revision
  expression such as feature~1 or main^ (possible via the MCP server's
  create_local_pr) previously passed validation and could merge a different
  commit than the branch it named.
• The model picker now tells you why the live model list couldn't load — the
  provider's own message for a rejected key, or the blocked-host hint for a custom
  server — and refreshes as soon as you save or clear the API key.
• Picking a folder in Open repository… that isn't a git repository says so
  plainly and stops there; the Locate… and Remove fixes stay with the
  recent-repository list, where they have a row to act on.
• AI-generated release notes follow the repo's own .gitdesktop/instructions.md,
  the same as every other generation.
• Release actions always act on the tag you selected: publishing, editing,
  deleting a release and adding, downloading or removing its assets wait —
  saying so — until that tag's release has loaded.
• Edits and deletions of a pending review comment report a failure even when you
  move to another pull request while the write is in flight.
• When an interactive-rebase rewrite can't complete, the error now tells the truth
  about the rollback: it confirms your branch was restored, and when the rollback
  itself fails it names the tip your branch had before the run and the exact
  commands to recover.
• The repository visibility and Dependabot check for updates pickers
  read the same closed as they do open — the selected value is capitalized to
  match the entry you chose.
• Shortcut hints name the keys your Mac actually uses: the markdown toolbar's
  Bold, Italic, and Link buttons show Cmd, and Settings → Keyboard
  names Cmd and Option while you record a binding.
• Stashing is now refused while a merge, rebase or cherry-pick is in progress —
  including one whose conflicts you have already resolved and staged — so the
  resolution stays with the operation git is still tracking, and promoting a
  worktree is blocked while the main workspace is mid-operation, before the
  point of no return.
