[Alin Belu]

Hi everyone,

We are excited to announce the release of the Oxygen Git Client add-on 
version 3.0.0!

Our developing team spent great efforts to further expand the add-on's 
functionality with the addition of these following improvements:

1. You can save the uncommitted changes into stashes, reapply or delete 
the stashed changes.
2. You can create new tags from the Git History contextual menu. In the 
Git Staging toolbar, there is an action to list all the tags. Tags from 
the local repository can be deleted or pushed to the remote repository.
3. Added a Merge "SELECTED_BRANCH" into "CURRENT_BRANCH" action in the 
contextual menu for local branches in Git Branch Manager.
4. When showing the history for a directory in the affected files 
section, the files that are descendants of the directory are presented 
on top and the files that are outside it are grayed out.
5. Added a Revert commit action in the contextual menu for commits from 
the Git History view. It creates a new commit that reverts all the 
changes from the selected commit.
6. Added a Reset file to this commit action to the contextual menu for 
resources associated to a revision in the Git History view. It checks 
out the selected version of the file.
7. Added an Open working copy version action to the contextual menu for 
resources associated to a revision in the Git History view.
8. A warning message is now displayed when trying to use the Mark as 
resolved action on a file that contains conflict markers.
9. A message prompt is now displayed if you try to switch the branch 
while there are uncommitted changes so that you can confirm that you 
want to stash the changes or move the changes to the new branch.
10. A new editor variable is now supported: ${git(working_copy_url)}. It 
is resolved to the URL of the current working copy directory.
11. When hovering the cursor over the Pull and Push buttons, the 
displayed tooltip now shows information about some of the 
incoming/outgoing commits (such as the date, author and message).
12. When hovering the cursor over a branch name, a tooltip is displayed 
that provides information about the last commit performed on that branch 
(such as the author and the date of the commit).
13. An information message that is shown when starting Oxygen while 
being on a detached HEAD now presents more information about the 
checked-out commit (ID, author, date, message).
14. The add-on's minimum compatible Oxygen version was increased to 
version 22.1.
15. The highlight boxes that surround branches and tags are now styled 
differently so that it is easier to identify which represents a branch 
and which represents is a tag.
16. The settings in the Git client preferences page can be saved at 
project level. The project can then be shared with other users and 
everyone will have the same Git client settings.
17. Fixed an issue that caused the commit details to be incorrectly 
displayed when a filter text was active in the History view.
