Fixed import of OpenSSH private keys without comments.
My main development focus is on the Mac version of Working Copy, but I took a little detour to support Stream Deck for the truly Connected users. Commit, Revert, Fetch, Merge, Pull & Push from your USB connected Stream Deck. This requires an M-series processor iPad.

Theme choices are remembered by file type and whether the app is in light or dark mode. List checkboxes in Markdown, org-mode and AsciiDoc are no longer toggled when tapped as it could misinterpret attempts to move cursor. Instead the Copy/Paste menu is shown with a choice to Toggle checkbox. AI completion uses gpt-4o instead of gpt-4-turbo when configured for GPT-4.

When creating linked repositories from the + button either a Directory or Document Package can be picked. It was previously only possible to link to Document Packages using drag-and-drop. This makes it easier to configure links to Swift Shortcuts and Codea projects. When setting up linked repositories where the picked folder doesn't already contain a .git directory one will be created. To avoid confusing other apps this .git folder is stored outside the picked folder even though storing them in-place is nicer. Working Copy now looks at the picked folder to see if this is a Codea project, Swift playground, Obsidian vault or Logseq document to store the .git directory in-place since these apps are not confused by this. Shortcuts action to Get Repository Files can filter to only include conflicted files which can be used as an easy way to check if a repository has unresolved conflicts. Fixes bug in shortcuts Commit action such that it no longer stages conflicted files when set to commit all modifications. Instead it will fail until conflicts have been resolved. Fix application freeze that could happen when opening links from Markdown previews while using Stage Manager.

Configure AI Completion to use other services than OpenAI by customising endpoint. Shortcuts actions are able to work on submodules. Start configuring the shortcut to use the parent repository and when picking a second time submodules are available at the beginning of the list. Fix issue where diff for empty files that had never been committed would be shown as if it was images.
Upgraded to libgit2 1.8.0 This enables push options (equivalent to --push-option= and -o) from the Push To… dialog that are useful for continuous integration. Multiple options are written with space between them and options that include space should be "double quoted" where special characters can be backslash escaped. Push options are remembered for each repository and previously used options are available in the auto complete menu making it easy to pick previously used options. Push To… with these new capabilities is a pro feature available to users that purchased or upgraded their pro unlock after March 20, 2019. AI Completion can be configured to use gpt-4-turbo-preview instead of gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct for more context aware, higher quality but slower and more expensive completions. Commit dialog will correctly display staged changes in the special case where a modified line have been staged but changed in the working directory to something else that is different from both staged line and latest commit. Command Up/Down on physical keyboard scrolls the editor one page and Command Left/Right scroll to the top or end of the file. Screens that show commit lists work better with dynamic type. Color adjustments to increase contrast and readability.
Support for IPv6 addresses in SSH Upload & SSH Command. You need to wrap addresses in square brackets to include custom port.
Fix bug introduced in 5.9.4 such that commit changes would take very long to appear.

Fix bug configuring SSH key for Git remotes on iPad.

Improvements to AI Completion making it much easier to pick parts of a completion. Text color shows how much is included when you touch the completion, updating as the finger moves and inserting the completion when the finger is lifted.
When editing the AI Completion script it is possible to import from a javascript file.
AI Completion now allows you to customise the prompt, the model and even the service used. Default behaviour is unchanged but by editing Javascript you can control how the context around the cursor is collected, how the API call is made and how the result is returned. Check out AI Completion in Settings. Fixed bug where toggling list checkmarks in Markdown/AsciiDoc/orgmode would change the wrong character if there had been very recent edits.
Holiday Activity in settings no longer adds empty week in your GitHub activity graph. Reuse the feature to fix your GitHub activity. Includes improvements from 5.8.5: Enable AI powered auto-completion for code and text in the content popup menu. This requires your own OpenAI API key and is enabled for repositories individually to make sure nothing is sent to OpenAI without your consent. Text completions appear as you edit and can be ignored as you keep typing or move the cursor. Tap the completion to insert up to this point, which is useful when only the start of the completion is needed. Tabular on external keyboards will insert the entire completion. SSH transport connections are initiated in a way that works better with VPNs.

This is useful for making shortcuts that work on the current context activated with voice or the iPhone 15 Pro action button.
Improved compatibility with old OpenSSH servers.
Add widget to home screen monitoring a remote repository branch. It will efficiently check for remote changes making it easy to Fetch from widget. Repository and Branch is configured on backside.

Configure stash buttons on the navigation bar in iPadOS 16 by picking Customize Toolbar from the (...) menu. iPhone users can stash from the repository context menu as always. Working Copy correctly restores your location at launch inside linked external repositories. Part of the improvement happens when exiting Working Copy so you might get one last launch that forgets your location.
Fix crash that could happen at launch.
Updated Users' Guide in Settings. Fixed some possible crashes.
Use AI generated commit messages derived from the changes you are about to commit. Tap button to the left of summary field that shows a list of previous commit messages and pick AI Suggestions. Your code and text differences will be going through the OpenAI API so there are privacy issues you have to consider on a project-by-project basis.

Showing commit graph or listing commits for a single branch is working again.
Configure whether Repository Status lists commits from all branches or just HEAD in title menu.
Fix crash that could happen when opening list of logs. Includes improvements from last update: When pushing fails because account doesn't have access on GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket you are prompted to complete push on forked repository. Pull Request creation from branch list is able to fork a repository such that you don't need to fork and configure the upstream repository ahead of time. Nicer commit autocomplete suggestions. TreeSitter highlighting has been disabled while I work on a better way to handle injected languages. Fix error where it wasn't possible to clone from url having @ in the username.

Editor uses TreeSitter for incremental syntax highlighting when editing Java, OCaml, LaTeX and Lua. You should notice syntax highlighting being available immediately when files of this type are opened and that highlighting colours update without delay as you type. TreeSitter support will be added to more languages in the next few updates. I'm intentionally holding back the most popular languages to expose fewer people to potential bugs missed during testing. Avoid flickering of status when moving file into folder and renaming it. Improved auto detection for Gitea hosting providers.
Enable signing in Shortcuts commit action. This requires a commit identity with a signing key that doesn't ask for passphrase or requires Face/Touch ID.

Further improvements to GitLab authentication. Includes major changes from 5.2.0 Protect your data with the Screen Lock that blocks access to the main app, Shortcuts actions, Files app and share sheet extension until you enter a passcode or authenticate with Face ID or Touch ID. Screen Lock is configured inside settings. This is meant to protect from mistakes by children and friends borrowing your iPhone or iPad. Having a strong device passcode and keeping your device locked is safer as repositories, passwords, authentication tokens and ssh keys are stored using data protection measures in iOS and only readable when device is unlocked.
