Add inline image preview support for binary image files in diffs and the file viewer. Frontend: new CSS rules for diff/viewer image panels and macOS window radius, JS templates to render base64 image previews and wire previewMime/previewBase64 into rendering flow, plus applyPlatformChrome to set platform-specific chrome. Backend (Tauri): add base64 and ico deps and expose image preview data (mime + base64) on GitFileDiff and LocalRepoFile; implement mime detection, size-limited preview generation (5MB), .ico → PNG extraction, and integration into get_file_diff and local_repo_file to return previews when available. Also updates icon asset.
Enable macOS private API and make the app window transparent. Add tauri feature and tauri.conf settings (macOSPrivateApi + transparent) and call set_background_color in setup to use an RGBA transparent background. Adjust CSS so body is transparent, add --radius-window, and move app background to #app/.layout with border-radius and overflow hidden to preserve rounded transparent window styling.
Introduce file/application pickers and external-editor integration, plus a visual refresh. Frontend: add UI for selecting/rescanning installed IDEs, custom editor input, "Open in File Explorer" and "Open in Code Editor" actions, clone destination browse, helper utilities, new icons, and many CSS theme/UX improvements (variables, shadows, scrollbars, selection, refined component styles). State: track installedIdes and scan status. Tauri API: expose browseDirectory, browseApplication and scanInstalledIdes, and wire UI handlers to call them. Backend: add InstalledIde struct and update tauri Cargo manifest and capabilities to allow dialogs. Overall improves editor/workflow integrations and modernizes the app styling.
Implement local repository scanning end-to-end. Frontend: add UI (toolbar, local-scan panel, list/cards), CSS styles, icons, new state fields, and templates; convert recent repo items to buttons and wire up actions to select, view and open scanned repos. JS: add helper utilities (repoNameFromPath, normalizeRemoteUrl, serverRepoRemoteUrls), scanForLocalRepos/selectLocalRepo functions, render template for scan results, and call scanLocalRepos via tauri-api. Tauri API: expose scan_local_repos (tauri command) in tauri-api.js. Backend (Rust): add LocalRepoCandidate type and a scanner implementation that walks configurable/default roots, deduplicates paths, matches local remotes against allowed server URLs, enforces depth/result limits, and returns matched candidates; register scan_local_repos in the command list. Includes error handling and user-facing messages for missing roots or remotes.
Implements a read-only repository viewer for remote Gitea repos and local clones. Adds UI/CSS for viewer panels, breadcrumb/branch controls, file table, code/Markdown preview, and readme rendering (frontend/css/components.css, frontend/js/app.js). Extends app state and wiring (state.js, app.js) with viewer actions, branch/content loading, local/remote navigation, and preview helpers (base64 decoding, markdown rendering, syntax highlighting, 256 KB preview limit). Adds Gitea API helpers to fetch repo branches and contents (frontend/js/gitea-api.js) and Tauri JS bindings for local repo operations (tauri-api.js). Implements Rust backend commands to list branches, tree entries, and file contents (with size/binary checks and helper utilities) and wires them into the Tauri command registry (src-tauri/src/lib.rs). Also updates README to mention the new read-only viewer.
