1. Git Amend Support: Users can now amend commits directly within the platform, streamlining version control workflows.
2. Customizable Bottom Dock Layouts: Users can choose from various layouts for the bottom dock, including contained, full, left-aligned, and right-aligned options, which allows for a more personalized interface.
3. Enhanced Diagnostics Rendering: The clarity of "Block" diagnostics has been improved, and specific actions such as navigating to the next or previous diagnostic are now more reliable.
4. Support for New OpenAI Models: Compatibility with OpenAI's o3 and o4-mini models has been added, expanding the AI capabilities available to users.
5. Improved Code Actions: Visibility of code actions has been enhanced in the right-click context menu, making it easier for users to access necessary features.
Additionally, the update includes improvements to the Sublime Keymap, such as the addition of a Git restore compatibility bind for Mac and Linux users. The editor now utilizes the buffer font size for Markdown previews and resets the cursor position during format operations.
The release also tackles numerous bugs across various programming languages, including Python and Go, as well as issues in the Vim mode. Users will benefit from fixes related to error pop-ups, crashes in screen sharing on macOS, and problems with cursor behavior and snippet duplication.
