### Behaviour changed

### Improved
- The QR Code for set-up can be shown also from the setting dialogue now.
- Conflict checking for preventing unexpected overwriting on the boot-up process has been quite faster.
### Fixed
- Some bugs on Dev and Testing modules have been fixed.
### Fixed
- Now no chunk creation errors will be raised after switching `Compute revisions for chunks`.

- 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
- Translations can be nested. i.e., task:`Some procedure`, check: `%{task} checking`, checkfailed: `%{check} failed` produces `Some procedure checking failed`.
### Improved
#### Peer-to-Peer
- Now peer-to-peer synchronisation checks the settings are compatible with each other.

#### General

- Some detail note has been added and change nuance about the `Report` in the setting dialogue, which had less informative.
### Behaviour and default changed
- `Compute revisions for chunks` are backed into enabled again. it is necessary for garbage collection of chunks.

Refactor
- Several interfaces have been moved to the separated library.

### Fixed

- No longer uses the old-xxhash and sha1 for generating the chunk ID.
Rewritten

- This makes hidden file sync more robust and reliable.

- Some unexpected errors are now handled more gracefully.
- Meaningless event passing during boot sequence is now prevented.
- Error handling for non-existing files has been fixed.
- Hidden files will not be batched to avoid the potential error.
- This behaviour had been causing the error in the previous versions in specific situations.
- The log which checking automatic conflict resolution is now in verbose level.
- Replication log (skipping non-targetting files) shows the correct information.
- The dialogue that asking enabling optional feature during `Rebuild Everything` now prevents to show the `overwrite` option.
- The rebuilding device is the first, meaningless.
- Files with different modified time but identical content are no longer processed repeatedly.
- Some unexpected errors which caused after terminating plug-in are now avoided.
-
