• Fix: Corrects an issue where the preference options for review assignments were incorrectly displayed. If you use this feature and changed your review settings recently, please visit preferences and check if the "moving" options under the "Review" tab are set correctly.
• Updated sorting logic so that an item will go to the "highest" section that the settings allow for, irrespective of the internal evaluation order of those rules.

• Options to modify the behaviour of author, commenter, or label lists, so instead of exclusions/filters they can instead be used as inclusion lists.
• Nicer rendering of item labels.
• Option to sync and display links to items that close, or are closed by, other items.
• The usual round of performance improvements, in line with keeping Trailer as lightweight as possible.

]]> Mon, 28 Aug 2023 16:00:00 +0000 11.0.0

• Fix: Correctly restoring API server auth tokens during an import
• Fix: Corner case crasher in v4 sync
• From 1.8.8:
• GitHub access tokens will now be stored in the system keychain and not in the local Trailer database for extra security, and are no longer visible in the Trailer UI. This migration is performed automatically. If you need to downgrade to a previous version of Trailer for whatever reason, please search your keychain for “trailer” and copy/paste the tokens back to that.
• New option to auto-remove closed and merged items if they have not been updated for a certain period of time.
• New option in the “Misc” preferences section to list items that are synced but not being displayed for whatever reason.
• If using multithreaded queries, Trailer will “boost” the original batch slightly to ensure that short syncs complete faster. Longer syncs will still continue with the standard lower rate to ensure there are no timeouts.
• Performance improvements and cleanups related to reading settings, especially as part of batch operations.
• A fix related to handling window sizing and scroll position on macOS.
• Fixed: If there were no people assigned to review a PR, team assignments would not be detected.
• Fixed: Closed items from a repo not actively watched could result in repeating close notifications until the item was removed.

• Corrects an error that would be displayed when trying to launch at login

]]> Fri, 11 Aug 2023 17:00:00 +0000 11.0.0

• Possibly eliminates a potential v4 API locking issue
• Corrects an issue where the option of team review assignments would reset after being set on macOS

]]> Fri, 10 Aug 2023 18:00:00 +0000 11.0.0

• If you’re using V4 API, this build will perform a migration of IDs once after installation to the new identifiers that GitHub is requiring. This may mean the first sync after upgrade will take slightly longer.
• Display: Item counts will now take author/comment blocklist into account.
• Display: Base/head display fixes.
• Display: V4 API syncs now display the number of calls made in the status display.
• Settings: New setting added to autohide PRs that have been approved or rejected by the current user.
• Settings: Separate options for assignments to allow different sections for items assigned to the user compared to items assigned to one of the current user’s teams.
• Settings: Repository list now makes it easier to add and remove custom entries.
• Performance: Item post processing is slightly faster.
• Tidying: Removed older migration code from very old versions.
• Fix: Initial launch refreshes watchlist repos correctly once again.

]]> Fri, 04 Aug 2023 20:00:00 +0000 11.0.0

• The log options in the Misc section in preferences are now replaced by a logging window that lists all operations performed by Trailer, as well as API requests and responses, with an option to copy the log to the clipboard.
• Improved v4 API GitHub failures handling and retries.
• An updated v4 API preferences panel, with specific presets (and a safe default)
• Tidbits: Updated to Sparkle 2.x, Cleaned up ancient prefs migration code, minor querying cleanups/performance optimisations, returned to system-provided networking as NIO was having issues, and fix for crash bug in GraphQL parsing.

]]> Tue, 26 Jul 2023 20:00:00 +0000 11.0.0

• To help keep the experience of using v4 API as stable as possible, this release adds an option screen for v4 API in the Servers section where you can customise the paging parameters to avoid GitHub errors. The defaults are quite conservative, so depending on how much data you sync, you may want to incrementally try increasing them, especially parallel queries.
• From 1.8.x:
• Corrects an issue related to filtering out items created by bot users, and some corner cases in v4 syncing
• Includes a further round of technical cleanups
• From 1.8.0:
• Significant optimisations to performance throughout, from HTTP requests, parsing queries, processing items, app responsiveness while syncing, and especially updating menus in macOS.
• A (first) round of improvements to the ageing codebase :)
• Many small fixes, partly as a consequence of the cleanup.
• Fixed an issue where items that were open at the time a repo was archived will no longer be listed.
• Fixed an issue where closed and merged items that were kept on the list could not be opened.
• Corrections to Spotlight integration.

• Typed-in filters are now persisted in each menu between app restarts.
• Support for displaying checks in item status lists (v4 API only.)
• Improved layout for items which do not have an author avatar.
• New option to display base branch info for PRs.
• General round of minor bug fixing and optimisations, including:
• Corrections to display of reviews and statuses.
• App will no longer appear over the menubar if auto-hiding of the menubar is turned on.
• Option to hide avatars in the posted notifications, independently from whether they are shown on the item lists.

]]> Mon, 19 Jul 2021 16:00:00 +0000 10.11.0

Editing or replacing an API auth token in settings will no longer clear the local data for that server

Correction for V4 API artefacts that could cause incremental syncs to bring in insufficient data

Built with the latest toolchain for size and performance improvements

]]> Sun, 15 May 2021 12:00:00 +0000 10.11.0 This is a maintenance update that corrects some visual issues in Big Sur and adds Apple Silicon support. ]]> Sun, 15 Nov 2020 10:00:00 +0000 10.11.0 This update:

• Fixed: When an item was closed or merged, and was kept, it would get badged irrespective or the badging preferences.
• Fixed: Closed PRs and Issues stopped being retained when using v3 API.
• Fixed: The v4-only "Mark non-mergeable items" option would show all items as having a conflict if v3 API was selected.
• Built with latest toolchains for performance and stability improvements.
• Yet another fix for macOS theme detection. Hopefully the last one :)

From 1.7.0:

• Added option to use GitHub v4 API for syncing data. If you sync a large amount of PRs, Repositories, sync status items, responses and/or review statuses/assignments, then turning this option on can result in dramatic speed improvements when syncing (and a reduction in corresponding API usage) since the number of calls Trailer has to make is significantly reduced. Trailer needs to re-sync all data when you toggle this option, so be sure to do so as appropriate.
• v3 API sync also features various improvements and optimisations to speed up some operations.
• Option to display teams that have been assigned to review a PR.
• Option to mark merge conflicts in PRs (v4 API only)
• Option to show added/removed line counts in PRs, as well as the ability to sort using that as a criterion (v4 API only)
• Option to scan closed and merged items for new events like comments and reactions (v4 API only)
• Options to scan items created on any repository, irrespective of whether they are in the watchlist (v4 API only)
• Reaction and status scanning logic has changed to keep syncs sane and help them scale up for larger numbers of items. From now on, Trailer will scan a fixed amount of items for statuses and reactions on every sync, and will round-robin through all items. So if you sync 200 items, and you’ve set 50 items per refresh, then all items will be refreshed within 4 syncs.
• PR branch names shown in context menus, selecting them copies the branch name to the clipboard.
• Various minor bug fixes and tweaks across both macOS and iOS.
• Improvements to colours and dark mode handling.
• Improvements to keyboard handling in the repository list editor.
• Notarised binary for greater security.

]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2020 20:00:00 +0000 10.11.0

]]> Wed, 21 Nov 2018 16:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• Corrects an issue where having un-configured API servers on the list could cause syncs to hang.

]]> Tue, 2 Oct 2018 20:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• Improved syncing of reviews when only their status has changed. For instance, when a review is dismissed.
• Correctly fades out inactive controls in the repo preference pane while refreshing.
• Improved colours under Mojave dark mode.

]]> Sat, 29 Sep 2018 15:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• Mojave dark mode support
• Built with the latest toolchain for performance and stability

]]> Sun, 16 Sep 2018 16:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• Significantly larger API cache to avoid straining GitHub API limits for users who are monitoring very large repos.

]]> Mon, 3 Sep 2018 08:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• This release drops a crufty layer of manual API caching and uses the system network cache instead. This not only improves stability but also corrects issues that Trailer would experience when running on macOS Mojave and iOS 12.

]]> Wed, 29 Aug 2018 20:00:00 +0000 10.10.0

• Important: If you have not tweaked the default options for visibility of items in new repos, the new default is now "hidden". If you wish to change that back to the old default, you can change the appropriate setting from the "Repositories" preference panel. Please see the end of these notes for more info.
• Option to auto-hide archived repos.
• Periodically updates manually added repos along with the rest of the watchlist.
• Takes dismissed reviews into account when displaying review statuses.
• Batch adding of custom repos from an org is now possible: Simply use "*" as the name of the custom repo.
• Repository list is now sortable by its columns. It’s also FAR more responsive.
• Changes in quick-start and default repo visibility: GitHub use has grown a lot since Trailer was first created. Users no longer follow or watch just a few repositories and orgs can have hundreds or thousands of repositories. This means that the default quick-start behaviour of Trailer can and does end up being very wasteful in API, data, and battery use over time. For this reason, quick-start no longer activates every repository from the watchlist. Instead, once the account is verified the repo list is fetched and displayed, and a user can chose which repositories they want visible and to what extent. Additionally, settings for visibility of new repos are set to be hidden by default. Users must now explicitly opt into adding new repos, or explicitly set the options that automatically do that.

]]> Sat, 7 Jul 2018 14:00:00 +0000 10.10.0
