Fix conflict issues

+### Conflict Merge Policy
+
+Markdown conflict auto-merge should behave like a conservative three-way merge. The guiding rule is to merge changes when they touch non-overlapping regions, and to keep a manual conflict when the edits overlap semantically.
+
+When in doubt, prefer the safer outcome: preserve data, keep the conflict visible, and ask the user rather than silently discarding content or choosing one side.
+
+- If one side deletes a line and the other side leaves that same line unchanged, treat it as a safe deletion. The deleted line must not be reintroduced into the merged result.
+- If one side inserts new content in a different region while the other side deletes an unchanged old region, preserve the insertion and the deletion.
+- If one side deletes a line and the other side modifies that same line, keep the conflict for user resolution.
+- If both sides insert different content at the same position, keep both insertions in a deterministic order unless the surrounding deletion context indicates that they are competing replacements.
+- Avoid resolving conflicts by simply choosing the newest revision unless the user has explicitly selected that behaviour.
+
+This policy is intentionally aligned with the conflict checkboxes and compatibility settings: automatic merge should remove avoidable prompts, but it must not silently choose between overlapping user intentions.
+
 ### File Structure Conventions
 
 - **Platform-specific code**: Use `.platform.ts` suffix (replaced with `.obsidian.ts` in production builds via esbuild)

+## 0.25.79
+
+29th June, 2026
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fast Fetch now retries transient stream interruptions and resumes from the latest persisted checkpoint, instead of starting over after ordinary network or platform interruptions (#977, PR #978; commonlib PR #59). Thank you so much for @apple-ouyang for the fix!
+- Simple Fetch now remembers the selected setup choices while an interrupted Fetch All operation is still pending, so users are not asked the same questions again on retry (#977, PR #978). Thank you so much for @apple-ouyang for the fix!
+- No longer hidden storage events, such as `.git` paths, reach the normal target-file filter when internal file synchronisation is disabled. This avoids noisy non-target logs before those files are skipped (commonlib PR #60). Thank you so much for @apple-ouyang for the fix!
+- Fixed an issue where a file deleted from storage could be resurrected by the offline scanner because the database tombstone was not written when the storage file was already gone (commonlib PR #56). Thank you so much for @cosmic-fire-eng for the fix!
+
+### Improved
+
+- Local database maintenance commands now ask before applying the required chunk settings, and can apply those prerequisites before continuing (#980, PR #981). Thank you so much for @apple-ouyang for the improvement!
+- Improved CouchDB replication event handling by using the new `StreamInbox` helper from `octagonal-wheels` (commonlib PR #62).
+
+### Documentation
+
+- Added `nginx` to the setup documentation table of contents (PR #976). Thank you so much for @kiraventom for the improvement!
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+- Updated `octagonal-wheels` to `0.1.47` across the plug-in and workspace packages to use the newly published helper modules.
+
+## 0.25.78
+
+23rd June, 2026
+
+### Fixed
+- No longer fast synchronisation (a.k.a. Fast Fetch) causes a rewind and re-fetch of the entire database when some errors occur during the process (#972, PR #973). Thank you so much for @apple-ouyang for the fix!
+
+### Improved
+
+- Overhauled the Object Storage (e.g., MinIO and S3) replication engine ('Journal Replicator 2nd Edition').
+  - It now leverages the standard Web Streams API for a resilient, backpressure-aware architecture, reducing memory footprints/temporary storage usage on large vaults.
+  - Decoupled the physical storage logic to make it easier to add new storage backends in the future.
+  - Stricter compliance with CouchDB's replication protocol (proper `_revisions` transfers with `new_edits: false`) when using Object Storage.
+
+### Testing
+  - Added comprehensive unit tests for the new `JournalSyncCore` engine, covering streams, backpressure, and `new_edits: false` validation.
+  - Improved integration test workflows in the CI pipeline to run MinIO tests automatically using standard environment variables.
