NEW in 51.beta (25/08/2026)
=============

- Rewrite the history as a scrollable, lazily-loaded list in both the GNOME Shell extension and the graphical tool: they fill the window at runtime and load more as you scroll, so max-displayed-history-size is gone
- Pin items as favourites: neither the history size limit nor the memory one may evict a pinned item, so the history grows past its cap rather than let one go, and the graphical tool, the extension and "gpaste-client --favourites" can list only those
- Add a merge mode to combine several history items
- Rework the graphical tool's window: it collapses to a single pane on a narrow screen, gathers Settings, About and Restart behind one menu, keeps a row's Edit and Upload in a context menu with Pin and Delete inline, asks its questions in the dialog's own heading, remembers its geometry across sessions, and says in a toast when something did not work
- Show image thumbnails and colour swatches on the rows, in the GNOME Shell menu as well as in the graphical tool, and enlarge an image preview when the pointer rests on it
- Rework the extension's panel menu: its footer is made of real menu items the keyboard can reach, and the shell's extensions window is handed GPaste's preference pages directly instead of nesting them all inside a single row
- Document the graphical tool's own shortcuts in its shortcuts window, beside the global ones
- Encrypt the history at rest: an optional encrypted file backend (libsodium secretstream) keeps the history, the images it references and its password entries unreadable without a passphrase, which libsecret can remember for you, and which can be changed from the preferences or with "gpaste-client change-passphrase"
- Add SQLite storage backends, plain and encrypted, that persist the history incrementally in a per-history database and keep images as blobs rather than as files on disk
- Choose where the history is stored, and move it there: a migration dialog on upgrade, or on demand from the preferences and "gpaste-client migrate", with a "Keep as is" button for those who want none of it, which changes nothing and does not ask again
- Take a password back off the clipboard: a password carries a timeout, in seconds, after which the daemon stops publishing it, set from a Make Password composer in the graphical tool, from "gpaste-client make-password --timeout", or as the "password-timeout" default they both start from
- Optionally run the daemon inside the GNOME Shell extension, watching the clipboard through mutter rather than as an X11 client (experimental and opt-in, with a clean bus-name handover to and from the standalone daemon)
- Publish copied colours as text on the clipboard as well, so they paste into plain text fields too
- Capture keyboard shortcuts in the preferences instead of typing them, and reset any preference from a right-click menu, in an embeddable widget that is now adaptive
- Track images by default, raise the default retention, element and memory limits, and drop "open-centered", a preference nothing has been able to honour since the GTK4 port
- Drop the internal X11 keybinder and the GNOME Shell keybinding client: keyboard shortcuts now go through the XDG GlobalShortcuts portal alone, and a portal dialog the user rejects is reported as the failure it is rather than silently leaving them unbound
- Fix the graphical tool crashing on startup, opening with the keyboard focus in the sidebar instead of the history, and showing a search's results over a newer one's
- Fix every GNOME Shell overview result disappearing when a single item had been evicted from the history between the search and the results being described
- Fix lowering the history size or memory limit dropping items without saving or announcing it, which left every open client showing rows the daemon no longer had
- Fix "gpaste-client --oneline" emitting literal tabulations, which broke parsing its output on a colon
- API: this is a major release and both libraries break API and ABI: the D-Bus interface is org.gnome.GPaste3, an item travels as its own content rather than as a decorated string, and the daemon's objects and its interface definition are installed for others to build on. See the git log for the full list
- Build: require GLib 2.90, GTK 4.24 and libadwaita 1.10

NEW in 50.8 (10/08/2026)
=============

- UI: fix selecting a history in the sidebar doing nothing, and, when a history's context menu was open, switching to that one instead of the one clicked

NEW in 50.7 (02/08/2026)
=============

- Fix the daemon deadlocking against itself when copying, most often on larger items: GTK's serialization of our text selections left an unowned stream chain that, on X11, waited on the very main loop that would have signalled it. Text selections are now served by a dedicated content provider that encodes the value itself
- text/plain is now served as UTF-8, where GTK's serializer encoded it as ASCII and replaced anything else with '?'
- Fix a deadlock when selecting an item that turns out to be invalid: the history now emits its "selected" signal once its lock is released, rather than driving the whole clipboard stack with it held
- Fix the daemon crashing when searching from the GNOME Shell overview with a term containing an unbalanced bracket or parenthesis (#496)
- Fix the history file being destroyed when it had been written by a newer version of GPaste
- Fix items being lost or garbled when loading a history containing an item with an empty value
- Fix every client crashing, GNOME Shell included, on the first update sent by a newer daemon after "gpaste-client daemon-reexec"
- Fix the daemon aborting, instead of disabling search, when it cannot connect to its own D-Bus proxy
- Fix "gpaste-client help", "version", "ui" and "preferences" failing when no daemon is reachable
- Fix "gpaste-client file" crashing on a file that is neither text nor a loadable image
- Fix a critical on every keystroke when the GTK UI search term is not a valid regular expression
- Fix acting on history rows before their content has been loaded, in both the GTK UI and the GNOME Shell extension
- Fix a second "gpaste-ui" or "gpaste-preferences" invocation failing instead of presenting the running window
- Fix several memory leaks and a use-after-free in the GTK UI history panel
- Fix the "empty history" helpers reporting success when the operation had failed
- The library soversions were last bumped in 50.1; 50.2 to 50.6 left them alone, so the next bump must be weighed against 50.1 rather than 50.6 (no exported symbol has changed since)

NEW in 50.6 (19/07/2026)
=============

- Fix the active history item overriding the clipboard when copying an image while images support is disabled: such content is now left untouched in the clipboard (while still not being added to the history), and the same applies to any clipboard content of an unsupported type

NEW in 50.5 (21/06/2026)
=============

- Fix the daemon failing to restart with "gpaste-client daemon-reexec": the re-exec path was missing the gpaste libexec subdirectory

NEW in 50.4 (21/06/2026)
=============

- GNOME Shell extension: fix history items gradually disappearing from the menu (overlapping daemon updates could leave rows permanently hidden)
- UI: fix keyboard input in the main window so Escape and Enter no longer swallow keystrokes meant for the search or history switch entries, and type-to-search now works right after startup

NEW in 50.3 (16/06/2026)
=============

- GNOME Shell extension: fix keyboard navigation in the history menu (Down now moves through every history item, Left/Right move between the action buttons when one is focused, and Up returns from the actions to the last history item)
- GNOME Shell extension: give every action button the same width regardless of its label

NEW in 50.2 (12/06/2026)
=============

- GNOME Shell extension: restore keyboard navigation of history items
- GNOME Shell extension: restore the Ctrl index overlay and Ctrl+0-9 selection
- Build: require GTK 4.18
- Fix a typo in the French translation

NEW in 50.1 (09/06/2026)
=============

- Fix building with -Dgnome-shell=false: the UI's Pango dependency was only pulled in when the GNOME Shell extension was enabled, so a build without the extension failed to configure
- Restore GTK deprecation version-gating (GDK_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED/MAX_ALLOWED) and drop the unused build-time gjs dependency
- The GNOME Shell extension now targets GNOME Shell 50
- Bump the libgpaste and libgpaste-gtk4 soversions to reflect the API/ABI changes since 45.8 (the GTK 4 port), which the 50.0 release omitted to do

NEW in 50.0 (08/06/2026)
=============

- Port GPaste to GTK 4 and libadwaita: the daemon, history UI and preferences are now GTK 4 applications; the GTK 3 and GdkPixbuf dependencies (and libgpaste-gtk3) have been dropped
- Show image thumbnails in the history, with settings to toggle previews and choose their size
- Support global keyboard shortcuts on Wayland through the XDG GlobalShortcuts portal (portal → GNOME Shell → internal X11 fallback)
- Recognise colours copied to the clipboard as dedicated colour items
- Track more rich clipboard content (additional special MIME types)
- Give keybindings human-readable descriptions
- Install a desktop file for the daemon (D-Bus activation)

- Fix the preferences accepting out-of-range values
- Write the history file atomically to reduce corruption risk
- GNOME Shell extension: retry the daemon connection before giving up, and modernise the JavaScript to current GNOME Shell conventions
- Numerous internal modernisations (async I/O via GTask, GSignalGroup, static GSettings schema)
