Time to improve

It has been a quiet time in here even though the download count is still rising. I'm happy to see this, thank you. In meantime, I found some time to improve and build a minor version for you.

Let's see.

UI-Improvements

The most prominent change in this release should be the changes to the UI. The following image shows version 5.0 on the left side versus 5.1 on the right. The status string is now rendered within a light border and uses a monospace font. I think it reflects its close relationship to the source code better now. I hope you like it.

You'll find the same style in RepoZ for macOS as well.

Localization

Thanks to our friend @pedoc and his Pull Request #84, RepoZ now comes with localization support. Right now, English, German and Chinese are supported.

Cheers mate :beer:

Stashes

RepoZ is a great tool to track unfinished work over all repositories. Until now, this included uncommited file changes or commits you did not push yet. Starting with version 5.1, RepoZ will also show the count of the stashes you parked away in the past within the status string.

Filter on todo's

As stated out above, RepoZ can be very handy to track unfinished work. However, one thing that has been missing for me personally was the possibility to get an overview of these changed ones exclusively. That's where version 5.1 comes in: By using the predefined filter todo, you can filter on repositories with unfinished work, like uncommited file changes, unpushed commits or as written above: repositories with stashed changes.

Of course, this is also possible with grr and grrui.

Unfortunately, grrui still has to use alternative characters because the awesome Terminal UI library gui.cs from Miguel de Icaza does not support the characters RepoZ uses, yet. More details over here.

You don't have to memorize predefined filters and the filter targets I wrote about as version 5.0 came out. It's all in the help screen of grr --help

Minor improvements

As always, there are a few minor improvements to make RepoZ even more reliable. One of these fixes issue #76 , an issue I encountered a few times in the past when my dev machine ran a few weeks 24/7.

If you're using the new Windows Terminal preview, you may be happy to hear that grr cd ... is now able to change the directory there as well.

Some users reported ugly UI glitches #87 with the latest Windows update. This is fixed now as well.

As always, I hope you enjoy using RepoZ.
