- No longer `No available splitter for settings!!` errors occur after fetching old remote settings while rebuilding local database.
### Improved
- Boot sequence warning is now kept in the in-editor notification area. (#748)
### New feature
- We can now set the maximum modified time for reflect events in the settings. (for #754)
### Refactored
- Module to service refactoring has been started for better maintainability:
- UI module has been moved to UI service.
### Behaviour change
- Default chunk splitter version has been changed to `Rabin-Karp` for new installations.
- Rewrite the service's binding/handler assignment systems
- Removed loopholes that allowed traversal between services to clarify dependencies.
- Consolidated the hidden state-related state, the handler, and the addition of bindings to the handler into a single object.
- Currently, functions that can have handlers added implement either addHandler or setHandler directly on the function itself.
I understand there are differing opinions on this, but for now, this is how it stands.
- Services now possess a Context. Please ensure each platform has a class that inherits from ServiceContext.
- To permit services to be dynamically bound, the services themselves are now defined by interfaces.
- The plug-in automatically fetches the missing chunks even if `Fetch chunks on demand` is disabled.
- This change is to avoid loss of data when receiving a bulk of revisions.
- This can be prevented by enabling `Use Only Local Chunks` in the settings.
- Storage application now saved during each event and restored on startup.
- Synchronisation result application is also now saved during each event and restored on startup.
- These may avoid some unexpected loss of data when the editor crashes.
### Fixed
- Now the plug-in waits for the application of pended batch changes before the synchronisation starts.
- This may avoid some unexpected loss or unexpected conflicts.
Plug-in sends custom headers correctly when RequestAPI is used.
- No longer causing unexpected chunk creation during `Reset synchronisation on This Device` with bucket sync.
### Refactored
- Synchronisation result application process has been refactored.
- Storage application process has been refactored.
- Please report if you find any unexpected behaviour after this update. A bit of large refactoring.
- P2P Replication got more robust and stable.
### Breaking changes
- Send configuration via Peer-to-Peer connection is not compatible with older versions.
### Fixed (This should be backported to 0.25.22 if the beta phase is prolonged)
- No longer larger files will not create a chunks during preparing `Reset Synchronisation on This Device`.
### Behaviour changes
- Setup wizard is now more `goal-oriented`. Brand-new screens are introduced.
- `Fetch everything` and `Rebuild everything` is now `Reset Synchronisation on This Device` and `Overwrite Server Data with This Device's Files`.
- Remote configuration and E2EE settings are now separated to each modal dialogue.
- Peer-to-Peer settings is also separated into its own modal dialogue.
- Setup-URI, and Report for the Issue are now not copied to clipboard automatically. Instead, there are copy dialogue and buttons to copy them explicitly.
- No longer optional features are introduced during the setup or `Reset Synchronisation on This Device`, `Overwrite Server Data with This Device's Files`.
- We cannot preform `Fetch everything` and `Rebuild everything` (Removed, so the old name) without restarting Obsidian now.
### Miscellaneous
- Setup QR Code generation is separated into a src/lib/src/API/processSetting.ts file. Please use it as a subrepository if you want to generate QR codes in your own application.
- Setup-URI is also separated into a src/lib/src/API/processSetting.ts
- Some direct access to web-APIs are now wrapped into the services layer.
### Dependency updates

- Configuring CORS setting via the UI now respects the existing rules.
- Now startup-checking works correctly again, performs migration check serially and then it will also fix starting LiveSync or start-up sync. (#696)
- Statusline in editor now supported 'Bases'.
### New feature
- Insecure chunk detection has been implemented.
### Fixed
- Unexpected `Failed to obtain PBKDF2 salt` or similar errors during bucket-synchronisation no longer occur.

- The `Compute revisions for chunks` setting has also been removed.
- As mentioned, `Memory cache size (by total characters)` has been removed.
### Refactored
- A significant refactoring of the core codebase is underway (please refer the release-note).

- Extra log messages during QR code decoding have been removed.
### Changed
- Some settings have been moved to the `Patches` pane:
### Behavioural and API Changes

- Automatic merge notifications, displayed on the grounds of `same`, have been degraded to logs.
### Improved
- Now we can fetch the remote database with keeping local files completely intact.
- In new option, all files are stored into the local database before the fetching, and will be merged automatically or detected as conflicts.
- The dialogue presenting options when performing `Fetch` are now more informative.
### Refactored
- Some class methods have been fixed its arguments to be more consistent.
- Types have been defined for some conditional results.
### Fixed

- Fetching configuration from the server is now saves the configuration immediately (if we are not in the wizard).
### Improved
- Mismatched configuration dialogue is now more informative, and rewritten to more user-friendly.
- Applying configuration mismatch is now without rebuilding (at our own risks).
- Now, rebuilding is decided more fine grained.
### Improved internally

- Peer-to-peer synchronisation now handles the platform and detects pseudo-clients.
#### General
- New migration method has been implemented, that called `Doctor`.
