Unofficial official changelog 🥴

[jdpurcell]

This is for anyone wondering what has changed since 6.1 was released, or to save @jurplel from having to write everything in case a recent changelog isn't being kept already. I left out some smaller changes that I didn't feel were noteworthy.

• Add "Reload File" action.
• Add "Delete Permanently" action to bypass trash.
• Add "Skip hidden files" option.
• File load errors are displayed in the viewport rather than as a modal dialog.
• Fix crash on exit on macOS.
• Fix crash when loading images in Windows with certain display ICC profiles.
• Fix inability to load certain files due to misdetected format.
• Fix issue in Windows multi-display setups where only the default display's ICC profile was used.
• Ignore macOS metadata (._) files.
• Automatic dark mode in Windows 11.
• Support for .qoi images.
• Update Qt to 6.7.3 on Windows/macOS.
• Add ARM64 build for Windows.
• (Might happen?) macOS build is fully signed and notarized by Apple.

If #699 gets merged

• Option to make zoom level relative to physical pixels (images at "original size" look sharp even with display scaling).
• Add zoom level in titlebar in Practical and Verbose modes.
• Improve image fitting and automatic window sizing to avoid cropped edges and unnecessary scaling.

If #735 gets merged

• Simplified image scaling settings UI.
• Option to disable smooth scaling at high zoom levels.

Other notes

• Minimum macOS version for non-legacy build is now macOS 11.

Other TODO

• Run lupdate so translators have access to new source strings.

Thanks, this will be very useful!

Might I suggest one of those tools that generates change logs from patterns in commit messages?

[jurplel]

I think I'll need to be more organized about PRs and squashing commits, but that makes sense

Thank you all for your contributions. Can we please have a small patch release to incorporate the fixes before a big update? The exit crash bug on the MacOS is driving me (and evidently others) crazy.

Sorry, I'll get to it as soon as I can.
