npx @buildinternet/releases get desktopRepositories can now be opened in GitHub Copilot from the Repository menu or a keyboard shortcut, and Copilot no longer adds itself as a co-author to generated commit messages. Fixed sandboxed markdown content being announced as "frame 0" by VoiceOver and NVDA, Finder warnings when Spotlight metadata is unavailable, and a hidden window not reappearing when a menu item is chosen on macOS.
GitHub Desktop now asks for confirmation before revealing certain folders in Finder, and improves handling of .gitignore files.
A new "Always show worktree list" Appearance setting keeps the current worktree toolbar segment visible. Fixed a crash when Git LFS progress tracking encountered a file read error, and improved check summary icon contrast plus macOS bundle path validation in the clone dialog.
"Open in Cygwin" now works for repository folders whose names contain spaces or punctuation, and branch, remote, and tag names starting with a dash are correctly handled across fetch, push, checkout, merge, rebase, and worktree operations.
Fixed opening files whose path contains non-ASCII characters with the default program on Windows and an unresponsive titlebar after the Electron 44 update, plus rebasing branches with leading-hyphen names. Also asks for confirmation before revealing certain folders in Finder, improves .gitignore handling and Enterprise server sign-in, and prevents unsupported clone protocols.
Removed support for macOS 12 on GitHub Desktop 3.6.6-beta1. Also fixed a Copilot error that occurred when models fail to load and the app falls back to the 'Auto' model.
Fixes issues including the concern from the new Windows installer registering uninstall entries, a false green image diff mode pixels, repository menu re-enabling after canceling a rebase, and preserving the branch protection information when API requests fail to fail. Hooks works on Windows for a new issue.
Fixed RStudio detection for the new Windows installer's per-user or 64-bit machine-wide uninstall entries, and removed false green artifacts in image diff "Difference" mode caused by sub-pixel misalignment. Also re-enabled repository menu items after canceling a rebase, preserved branch protection info on API failures, and blocked upgrades from macOS 12 and older ahead of an Electron update that drops support.
Hooks taking input via stdin now work on Windows. Updated Git for Windows to v2.53.0.windows.4 and Git Credential Manager to 2.9.0.
Git for Windows is updated to v2.53.0.windows.4 and Git Credential Manager to 2.9.0.
Apple notarization failures that blocked new app releases are fixed by migrating from electron-packager to @electron/packager. Repository recovery now persists the main worktree path even after git prunes linked worktree metadata, and keyboard focus returns to the control that opened a nested dialog after it closes.
Copilot conflict resolution no longer overwrites a user's manual resolution when conflict markers are already removed, and surfaces underlying errors instead of a generic message. Adds Copilot usage info and better support for multi-license accounts, plus delete-vs-modify conflict handling.
Fixed a Copilot error on Windows, a crash from infinite re-render loop on truncated repo paths, and a worktree bug where repos appeared missing after deleting the linked worktree folder. Also fixed commit message autocomplete, Copilot sessions leaking into VS Code, and repository list scroll jitter.
Fixed an error that prevented Copilot-based features from working on Windows, and improved @-mention autocomplete to exclude users without a profile name when typing queries like "@null".
Fixed a crash where truncated repository path text could enter an infinite re-render loop. Repositories no longer appear as missing when their linked worktree folder was deleted outside Desktop, and the app now falls back to the main worktree in such cases. Also fixed files disappearing from the Changes list after Desktop returns from the background, Copilot silently failing to generate commit messages on git errors, and Copilot sessions appearing in VS Code.
Fixed a bug where the repository list would get stuck or jitter when scrolling over tall groups, and clarified the line-ending conversion warning to explain automatic conversion on next checkout.
Invoking Desktop from the command line inside a worktree now opens the existing repository with the worktree selected rather than prompting to add a new repository. Scrolling no longer gets stuck when the pointer is over a tall group in the repository list.
Middle-clicking a diff hunk gutter now works correctly, and invoking Desktop from the command line inside a worktree opens the existing repository with the worktree selected instead of prompting to add a new one. Copilot sessions from commit messages and conflict resolution now show up in VS Code, and a macOS git hooks issue with incorrect GIT_EXEC_PATH is fixed.
Copilot Max plan users are now recognized correctly, the default Copilot model returns to Auto, Copilot feature loading times improve, and the model picker no longer extends beyond window boundaries on small screens.
Copilot Max plan users are now recognized correctly by GitHub Desktop.
