Hello everyone,

We are thrilled to announce the release of version 5.2.0 for the Oxygen Git Client add-on!

This newest update brings an array of new features and improvements, the most important being the introduction of Large File Support (LFS) to the Oxygen Git Client. If you have installed LFS and specified which extensions represent large or binary files that should be uploaded through the LFS mechanism, they will be automatically detected and handled correctly. This ensures a smoother and more seamless handling of large files, improving your version control process overall.

Additionally, version 5.2.0 offers improved messages in the user interface to provide clearer and more informative notifications, making your interaction with the Git Client more intuitive and user-friendly.

It's also worth mentioning that now, when you clone a repository, the Git Client will automatically detect and open Oxygen project files. This feature simplifies the process of working with Oxygen projects that are stored in a Git repository.

Other improvements added in version 5.2.0 of the Oxygen Git Client add-on include:
 * The absolute path to the working copy is now displayed in the tooltip of the Git Staging view's working copy combo box.
 * Enhanced remote change detection and refresh in History view for improved performance.
 * An issue has been fixed where untracked files were previously not being restored from a stash.
 * The integrated JGit library was upgraded to version 6.5.
 * Other bug fixes.

We hope that you will enjoy using the latest release of this add-on as much as we enjoyed developing it. As always, your feedback is welcome!

Best regards,  
Alin
