Update to 0.24.2:
   - Fix 'gs' binary missing from GitHub Release artifacts.
   - We are renaming the 'gs' binary to 'git-spice' to avoid
     conflicting with other command line tools.
    This release is a compatibility release to ease the
    transition. In this release, both binary names are available
    in GitHub Release archives, the official Homebrew Cask, and
    the AUR binary package:
        'git-spice': the new name for the binary
        'gs': deprecated, will print a warning on every
        invocation unless GIT_SPICE_NO_GS_WARNING=1 is set in the
        environment
    If you prefer using the name 'gs', we recommend adding an
    alias to your shell configuration.
    The 'gs' binary will be removed in an upcoming release. We
    encourage users to switch to 'git-spice' as soon as possible
    to avoid disruption when the 'gs' binary is removed.
- Update v0.23.0:
    - git-spice now sets the GIT_SPICE=1 environment variable for
      most external commands it spawns, including editors and Git
      itself. This may be used in, for example, Git hooks that
      need to detect if they are being run as part of a git-spice
      operation. For a demonstration of use, see this recipe.
    - Branch listings including gs log commands and commands that
      present a branch selection prompt, all now show paths for
      branches checked out in other worktrees.
    - submit: Detect and recreate navigation comments if they are
      deleted externally.
    - submit: Add spice.submit.reviewers.addWhen configuration
      option, which allows controlling whether reviewers
      configured with spice.submit.reviewers are added to draft
      change requests.
    - gitlab: Token extraction for CLI-based authentication now
      supports the format used by glab CLI v1.66.0 and later.
- Update v0.22.0:
    - GitHub OAuth authentication now additionally requires the
      read:org scope. We need this to resolve GitHub teams for
      the --reviewer flag introduced in v0.21. If you're using
      git-spice via OAuth authentication and use this flag,
    - please run gs auth login --refresh to generate a new local
      token with expanded scope.
- Update v0.21.0:
  - Release highlight: This release brings --reviewer and
    --assign flags to all submit commands. You can now request
    reviews or assign CRs at creation time, or during updates to
    existing CRs. Both flags have configuration variants:
    spice.submit.reviewers and spice.submit.assignees that are
    merged with flag values.
   - submit: Add --reviewer flag and 'spice.submit.reviewers'
     configuration option to request reviews from specific users
     or teams upon CR submission.
   - submit: Add --assign flag and 'spice.submit.assignees'
     configuration option to assign CRs to users upon submission.
   - Branch selection prompt now supports pressing Ctrl+U to
     clear the search filter.
    - submit: --dry-run now reports which labels will be added to
      existing CRs upon submission.
    - branch submit: Check if the Git configuration prevents
      pushed branches from being tracked, which would leave those
      branches in a state where follow-up submits are not
      possible.
    - branch submit: Fix panic when updating CRs that have no
      upstream branch configured.
- Update v0.20.0:
    - submit: Fix draft prompt being skipped for branches after
      the first one when submitting a stack interactively
    - Correctly handle unicode in branch names across various
      commands. These would previously be stored in state, but
      not be accessible.
    - submit: Include empty CR templates in the list of available
      templates. These were previously erroneously excluded.
    - branch create: '-m' flag now generates branch name
      automatically even when 'spice.branchCreate.commit' is set
      to false
    - commit: Add '--signoff' flag to add Signed-off-by trailer
      to commit messages. Enable for all commits with the
      'spice.commit.signoff' configuration option.
    - branch create: Add
      'spice.branchCreate.generatedBranchNameLimit' configuration
      option to customize the length of branch names generated
      from commit titles.
    - submit: Add 'spice.submit.navigationComment.downstack'
      configuration option to control whether merged CRs appear
      in stack navigation comments.
    - all: --help messages now include configuration options for
      each command.
    - submit: CR creation title prompt now allows choosing from
      the titles of all available commits instead of always using
      the first. Use up/down arrow keys to navigate.
    - submit: The prompt to confirm submission of empty branches
      now also considers branches with non-zero commits but no
      effective changes. This helps catch submission of empty
      commits or entirely reverted changes.
    - repo sync: Avoid prompting to delete branches that have
      both merged and open externally created CRs -- assume the
      user wants to keep the branch.
    - Fix data race in reading GraphQL responses from GitHub
      where buffers could be reused while response bodies were
      still being read.
    - Fix crash when information for a branch could not be loaded
      from Git.
- Update v0.19.0:
    - branch delete: Fix prompt for unmerged branch deletion not
      respecting the "no" answer.
    - Add experimental 'gs commit pick' to cherry-pick a commit
      and update upstack branches in one go. Opt into it with git
      config --global spice.experiment.commitPick true. The
      command presents an interactive prompt when invoked without
      any arguments. demo of gs commit pick
    - Add 'gs downstack track' command to track a manually
      created stack of branches in one go. demo of gs downstack
      track
    - {stack, upstack} restack: prompt for confirmation when
      invoked from trunk to prevent accidental full-repository
      restacking. To do this without a prompt, prefer using the
      gs repo restack command instead.
    - submit: Add spice.submit.navigationCommentStyle.marker
      configuration option to customize the marker in navigation
      comments
    - branch create: -m/--message now implies --commit
    - submit: Warn and prompt for confirmation when submitting
      branches with zero commits
    - repo sync: Fix failure to delete merged branches after
      a sync operation because an upstack branch of the merged
      branch is checked out in a worktree.
- Update v0.18.0:
    - git-spice now supports an experimental new command: gs
      commit fixup. It is able to amend any commit in the current
      branch or any downstack branch. Think git commit --amend,
      but fully stack-aware. (see the details in CHANGELOG.md).
    - We've addressed a long-standing limitation of gs branch
      split: it was previously unable to move the branch being
      split down to another commit. Suppose if the branch being
      split--say 'penguin'--has two commits: (a) Invent penguins,
      and (b) Refactor pangolin, and the branch head points to
      commit (b). Previously, gs branch split would not let you
      use the name 'penguin' for commit (a), as it was already
      attached to commit (b).
    - branch checkout/delete/onto: Include CR numbers in prompt
      visualization, and allow searching and filtering by CR
      identifiers.
    - Experimental 'gs branch fixup' command that acts like 'git
      commit --amend' for any downstack commit. It will commit
      staged changes to a downstack commit, and automatically
      rebase the rest of the stack on top of it. See
      https://abhinav.github.io/git-spice/cli/experiments for
      instructions on enabling this experimental feature.
    - log {long, short}: Add --json flag. This prints information
      about tracked branches to stdout as a stream of JSON
      objects.
    - log {long, short}: Add -S/--cr-status flag to request the
      statuses of change requests that have been published.
    - branch split: Allow reusing original branch name for
      intermediate commits during split.
    - Homebrew Tap now publishes the package as a Cask. If you
      previously installed with brew install
      abhinav/tap/git-spice, switch to the cask with brew install
      --cask abhinav/tap/git-spice. You can ignore this if you
      installed from homebrew-core (brew install git-spice).
    - gitlab: Submit Merge Requests with
      remove_source_branch=true. This will delete the source
      branch when the MR is merged. Opt out of this behavior with
      the spice.forge.gitlab.removeSourceBranch option.
    - commit amend: Delete -n flag that was deprecated in favor
      of --no-edit in v0.10.0 (2025-01-02). If you need a short
      way to use this flag, try defining a custom shorthand.
    - repo restack: Autostash dirty changes in the working tree
      before the operation. Previously, the changes wouldn't be
      stashed until checking out the first branch, an operation
      which might fail because of other conflicts.
    - log: When used without --all, query only requested branches
      internally. This was wasted work and slowed the command
      down in repositories with many branches.
    - log: List all tracked branches when run from an untracked
      branch or detached HEAD. Previously, this behavior was
      undefined.
    - Fix incorrect paths being logged when autostashed changes
      fail to reapply after a rebase operation.
