[oXygen-user] [ANN] Discover what's new in Oxygen Git Client add-on version 5.2.0!

[Alin Belu]

Hello everyone,

We are thrilled to announce the release of *version 5.2.0* for 
the*Oxygen Git Client add-on*!

This newest update brings an array of new features and improvements, the 
most important being the introduction of *Large File Support (LFS)* to 
the Oxygen Git Client. If you have installed LFS and specified which 
extensions represent large or binary files that should be uploaded 
through the LFS mechanism, they will be automatically detected and 
handled correctly. This ensures a smoother and more seamless handling of 
large files, improving your version control process overall.

Additionally, version 5.2.0 offers *improved messages in the user 
interface* to provide clearer and more informative notifications, making 
your interaction with the Git Client more intuitive and user-friendly.

It's also worth mentioning that now, when you clone a repository, the 
Git Client will automatically detect and open Oxygen project files. This 
feature simplifies the process of working with Oxygen projects that are 
stored in a Git repository.

Other improvements added in version 5.2.0 of the Oxygen Git Client 
add-on include:
  * The absolute path to the working copy is now displayed in the 
tooltip of the Git Staging view's working copy combo box.
  * Enhanced remote change detection and refresh in History view for 
improved performance.
  * An issue has been fixed where untracked files were previously not 
being restored from a stash.
  * The integrated JGit library was upgraded to version 6.5.
  * Other bug fixes.

installation steps), you can check the page below:

We hope that you will enjoy using the latest release of this add-on as 
much as we enjoyed developing it. As always, your feedback is welcome!

Best regards,
Alin
