v4.0.1

4.0.1 (2026-01-04)

Bug Fixes

• prevent failure to terminate when formatter does not read all input (#127) (2a18fb9), closes #94

v3.1.3

3.1.3 (2026-01-04)

v4.0.0

4.0.0 (2025-12-31)

Features

• compare file patterns use relative paths instead of absolute (#124) (c8d15d8), closes #109

BREAKING CHANGES

• Running git-format-staged in a repo subdirectory with
  unquoted file glob patterns, or with literal file paths will not work as
  it did before. File patterns must now be relative to the repo root. This
  means that it is important to quote shell globs when running in a
  subdirectory - otherwise they are expanded relative to the subdirectory
  instead of the repo root.

v3.1.2

3.1.2 (2025-12-29)

Bug Fixes

• backward-compatibility issue with quotes around filename placeholder (#119) (369e542)
• deadlock bug when formatting large files (#94) (f0436cf)
• properly escape filenames (#118) (74c1bc3)
• skip unstaged files from git add --intent-to-add (#117) (e8a0b03)

Notes

This release uses the Python shlex library to automatically quote values fed into the {} filename placeholder in formatter commands. Shlex automatically adds single quotes around file names when necessary. Prior to this release the recommendation was to put quotes around {}. That leads to a double quoting issue where '{}' might expand to ''some file.ts''. To avoid this issue for backward compatibility this release automatically removes matching single- or double-quotes immediately around {} in formatter commands. So no changes should be necessary for existing users. But going forward the recommendation is to not quote the {} placeholder.
