Minor Changes

Section titled “Minor Changes”
  • Add visible keyboard selection for review notes. Line-by-line movement now stops on every comment and reply in rendered order; saving or clicking a note makes it active, with next/previous note navigation and persistent edit, reply, and delete shortcuts on the active note. (#1044)
  • Add session CLI support for replying to existing inline review notes with inherited code anchors. (#1012)
  • Add persistent mouse and keyboard diff selections with explicit Comment, Copy, and Clear actions, including multiline review-note anchors. (#931)
  • Let extension CLI commands attach validated provider-neutral review metadata when they delegate a patch into Hunk, expose it to extension panes and live-session snapshots, and show delegated change-request identity in a concise built-in top pane. (#986)
  • Add configurable hunk.history.* command keybindings to the interactive history view. (#1039)
  • Allow folders in the wide sidebar tree to be collapsed and expanded with the mouse while file navigation reveals destinations hidden inside collapsed folders. (#1009)
  • Show history-style commit metadata in the review-info panel when opening a commit from interactive hunk log, with a copyable right-aligned revision and public pane clipboard/theme support. (#1016)
  • Add cancellable contiguous multi-commit selection to unfiltered interactive history with Shift+Arrow, J/K, and Shift-click controls, opening the inclusive cumulative change in one review. (#1031)
  • Redesign interactive hunk log with themed GitHub-style day groups, account-like author handles, relative timestamps, and an optional commit graph view. (#1011)
  • Add v visual range selection plus shared full-page and half-page movement keys to interactive history. (#1038)
  • Add themed, static-first Git and Jujutsu history with compact output and an interactive browser that opens selected commits in Hunk. (#979)
  • Let extension lifecycle and custom-event handlers request a coalesced host review reload after external agents change reviewed files. (#988)
  • Open hunk log as an auto-responsive terminal browser with GitHub-inspired rows, right-aligned commit links and copy actions, while preserving static output for pipes and --static. (#987)
  • Add Hunk's desktop menu chrome, live theme picker, and provider-owned merge-parent selection to the interactive repository history browser. (#983)
  • Animate docked panes as they open and close, moving the review pane alongside them. (#941)
  • Rename the single-column diff layout to unified, add canonical OpenTUI and extension API v23 fields, and retain deprecated stack compatibility across existing CLI, config, command, OpenTUI, and extension integrations. (#945)

Patch Changes

Section titled “Patch Changes”
  • Keep diff view preferences active when moving between history and commit reviews in the same session. (#1045)
  • Upgrade the bundled Bun runtime to 1.4.2 for lower memory use and runtime fixes. (#990)
  • Show multi-commit history metadata as compact responsive rows with reusable click-to-copy revision actions, and let extension panes derive a preferred size from current review facts. (#1032)
  • Prevent delayed editor updates from crashing a review after a note is saved. (#1050)
  • Cap pane animation rendering at 30 FPS to avoid unnecessary CPU usage, and add an animations = false config setting for immediate pane transitions. (#1036)
  • Keep commit reviews responsive while bundled VCS commands run, and share one correctly owned extension lifecycle across retained history and embedded reviews. (#992)
  • Restore fast first-frame rendering for long wrapped split-view lines while preserving multiline copy selections and note range guides. (#1043)
  • Keep the themed history loading screen visible until a selected commit review is ready to claim the terminal. (#989)
  • Keep theme changes active when moving between history and review surfaces in the same session. (#1040)
  • Add an opt-in, privacy-preserving cached endpoint for curl-install release checks, rate-limit automatic checks, and retain direct GitHub fallback and analytics opt-outs. (#969)
  • Restore automatic and manual reloads for direct-file comparisons launched outside repositories. (#1054)
  • Make alt and option keybindings work with both legacy terminal and Kitty keyboard encodings while preserving distinct Meta bindings when the terminal reports them. (#991)
  • Keep hunk log and opened commit reviews in one terminal renderer so returning never exposes previous terminal output. (#992)
  • Report the underlying health-probe failure when a reachable session daemon port cannot be verified. (#927)
  • Prompt to save theme changes when quitting an interactive hunk log session, matching other review commands. (#1015)
  • Stop drawing duplicate right-side range connectors on threaded reply cards. (#1046)
  • Shorten full Git commit IDs to seven characters in comparison titles so the title bar stays compact. (#1035)
  • Print reviews as static plain text instead of launching the interactive TUI when stdout is not a terminal. (#1029)
  • Keep suspended Hunk jobs alive so fg restores the TUI and its in-progress state. (#996)
  • Keep wrapped diff rows responsive by sharing one hover target across their visual lines. (#1051)
