 # Changelog

+## 2025-12-15 - 2.12.0 - feat(ci,test)
+feat(ci/test): add test scaffold, GitLab CI, update gitea workflows and .gitignore
+
+- Add comprehensive test/ scaffold including sample tests, test package.json, npmextra.json, test fixtures and TypeScript test sources
+- Add GitLab CI pipeline (test/.gitlab-ci.yml), test-specific .npmrc, VSCode launch/settings and supporting qenv/readme files for CI/local test runs
+- Update .gitea workflow YAML files to use templated placeholders and corrected container image path for CI execution
+- Update .gitignore to exclude AI assistant and tooling dirs (.claude/, .serena/) and add test/.gitignore to ignore test artifacts
+- Update changelog and documentation files to reflect recent formatter/commit/service changes and the new test/CI additions
+
+## 2025-12-15 - 2.11.1 - fix(mod_format/formatters)
+
+fix(packagejson.formatter): correctly parse scoped package dependency arguments and default to latest
+
+- Handle scoped packages (e.g. @scope/name@version) by detecting the last '@' after the scope slash so package name and version are split correctly.
+- Fallback to 'latest' when no version is provided.
+- Fixes earlier incorrect splitting on every '@' which broke scoped package names.
+
+## 2025-12-15 - 2.11.0 - feat(mod_format)
+
+feat(mod_format): use unified diff formatter with filenames and context in BaseFormatter.displayDiff
+
+- Replaced plugins.smartdiff.formatLineDiffForConsole(...) with plugins.smartdiff.formatUnifiedDiffForConsole(...) when both before and after are present.
+- Passes originalFileName and revisedFileName as diff.path and sets context to 3 to show a unified diff with surrounding lines.
+- Improves console output for multi-line diffs by using unified diff format and including file names.
+
+## 2025-12-15 - 2.10.0 - feat(mod_format)
+
+Refactor formatting modules to new BaseFormatter and implement concrete analyze/apply logic
+
+- Replace generic LegacyFormatter with explicit BaseFormatter implementations for formatters: copy, gitignore, license, npmextra, packagejson, prettier, readme, templates, tsconfig (legacy.formatter.ts removed).
+- Copy formatter: implemented pattern-based copying, template-preserve path handling, content equality check and planned change generation/apply.
+- Gitignore formatter: canonical template with preservation of custom section when updating/creating .gitignore.
+- License formatter: added runtime license check against node_modules for incompatible licenses and reporting (no file changes).
+- Npmextra formatter: automatic migrations for old namespace keys to package-scoped keys and migration of npmAccessLevel -> @git.zone/cli.release.accessLevel; reformatting and interactive prompting to fill missing repo metadata.
+- Package.json formatter: enforces repository/metadata, sets module type/private/license/scripts/files, ensures/updates dependencies (including fetching latest via registry), and applies pnpm overrides from assets.
+- Prettier formatter: added check() to compute diffs by running Prettier and returning per-file before/after diffs.
+- Readme formatter: create readme.md and readme.hints.md when missing with default content.
+- Templates formatter: apply templates from templatesDir based on project type (vscode, CI, docker, website/service/wcc), compare template vs destination and create/modify files as needed; ensures dest directories exist.
+- Tsconfig formatter: sets compilerOptions.baseUrl and computes path mappings from @git.zone/tspublish modules.
+- General: extensive use of plugins (smartfs, path, smartnpm, smartinteract, smartobject, smartlegal), improved logging and verbose messages.
+
+## 2025-12-15 - 2.9.0 - feat(format)
+
+Add --diff option to format command to display file diffs; pass flag through CLI and show formatter diffs. Bump @git.zone/tsdoc to ^1.11.0.
+
+- Add a diff boolean option to mod_format to enable showing file diffs during format operations.
+- CLI change: pass argvArg.diff into the options so the --diff flag is honored by the format command.
+- When diff is enabled, run formatter.check() for each active formatter and call displayAllDiffs() for those with differences, with informational logging.
+- Update dependency @git.zone/tsdoc from ^1.10.2 to ^1.11.0.
+
+## 2025-12-15 - 2.8.0 - feat(commit)
+
+Add commit configuration and automatic pre-commit tests
+
+- Add CommitConfig class to manage @git.zone/cli.commit settings in npmextra.json (alwaysTest, alwaysBuild).
+- Export CommitConfig from mod_config for use by the CLI.
+- Add 'gitzone config commit' subcommand with interactive and direct-setting modes (alwaysTest, alwaysBuild).
+- Merge CLI flags and npmextra config: -t/--test and -b/--build now respect commit.alwaysTest and commit.alwaysBuild.
+- Run 'pnpm test' early in the commit flow when tests are enabled; abort the commit on failing tests and log results.
+- Update commit UI/plan to show the test option and include the test step when enabled.
+- Add 'gitzone config services' entry to configure services via ServiceManager.

 Migrate filesystem to smartfs (async) and add Elasticsearch service support; refactor format/commit/meta modules

 - Replace @push.rocks/smartfile usage with @push.rocks/smartfs across the codebase; all filesystem operations are now async (SmartFs.file(...).read()/write(), SmartFs.directory(...).list()/create()/delete(), etc.)
 - Convert formerly synchronous helpers and APIs to async (notable: detectProjectType, getProjectName, readCurrentVersion and related version bumping logic). Callers updated accordingly.

+- Expose a SmartFs instance via plugins and adjust all mod.\* plugin files to import/use smartfs where required.
