On 2026-11-12, repver v0.6.5 was published. This is a maintenance release for the batch string-replacement and Git workflow tool. There are no new features or functional changes for users in this version; the release focuses on repository maintenance, CI hygiene, and rebuilding binaries with an updated toolchain. For existing users, v0.6.5 is a safe, drop-in update with no breaking changes.

What’s new

repver v0.6.5 does not introduce new CLI commands, configuration options, or behavioral changes. The application code and go.mod are unchanged from v0.6.4.

The work in this release is behind the scenes:

  • Binaries are rebuilt with Go 1.27.4, up from the 1.27.2 used for v0.6.4. The build toolchain update does not change runtime behavior.
  • Repository maintenance updates retire two legacy GitHub Actions workflows — govulncheck and add-to-project — in favor of organization-wide OSV-Scanner and ghook4action. These changes affect CI only.
  • Dependency bumps for CI actions, including setup-uv, chromadb-repo-indexer, and CodeQL, keep the repository’s security scanning and build pipelines current.

No .repver configuration changes are required.

Why it matters

Even without user-visible features, a clean maintenance release matters for reliability and trust. Rebuilding with a current Go toolchain ensures the distributed binaries benefit from the latest compiler improvements and security fixes. Retiring superseded workflows and keeping CI dependencies up to date reduces noise and maintenance burden for the project, which translates to a more stable release process for users.

Because the codebase is unchanged, existing automations and scripts that rely on repver will continue to work exactly as before. There is no migration work and no risk of regressions from this update.

Upgrade and installation

You can upgrade without changing configuration:

  • Download the pre-built assets for macOS, Linux, or Windows from the v0.6.5 release page: https://github.com/UnitVectorY-Labs/repver/releases/tag/v0.6.5
  • Or install via Go: go install github.com/UnitVectorY-Labs/repver@latest

The binary is functionally identical to v0.6.4, so existing .repver files and workflows require no modifications.
