Posted Updated

2.1.0

Added

  • Fetch History: Activity bar view with a tree grouped by workspace; view title Add (gitHubFileFetcher.fetchHistory.add, runs gitHubFileFetcher.run) and Refresh; context actions to remove one file or a whole workspace from storage; workspace root rows use a green folder icon when every stored file matches GitHub and red when any file is out of date or unverified (roll-up tooltips).
  • Compare to GitHub (“Check for updates”): command and settings (gitHubFileFetcher.checkForUpdates, checkForUpdatesMessages, checkForUpdatesHintSeconds) when the active file matches stored fetch history.
  • Progress UI via window.withProgress during GitHub API steps.
  • Confirmation when the destination file already exists (overwrite yes/no).
  • gitHubFileFetcher.informationMessages supports false, true, and verbose (replacing a boolean-only control).

Changed

  • Settings: gitHubFileFetcher.fetchHistory to control storing history; contributed commands and menus aligned (gitHubFileFetcher.run, gitHubFileFetcher.fetchHistory.*, default keybinding for the main command).
  • Large internal refactor of the extension entrypoint and helpers.
