File manager shortcut

Improvements for Windows 10 users:

• When you first register your computer on the Cozy, the app will add your
  Cozy Drive folder to the Windows Explorer sidebar (near the OneDrive one).
  If you disconnect from the settings, the sidebar shortcut will be removed.

Improvements for macOS users:

• When you first register your computer on the Cozy, the app will add your
  Cozy Drive folder to the Finder favorites. It will still have a normal
  folder icon though (same as the real folder).
  Also the favorite will not be removed when you disconnect. You can still
  easily remove it by hand.
  These small details should be fixed soon.
• The app will synchronize macOS folders without their custom icons (those
  are stored in hidden files with weird character in their name, which is
  not supported by the Cozy at the moment, and was triggering synchronization
  errors).

Improvements for all users:

• The temporary .cozy-desktop folder inside your Cozy Drive one was renamed
  to .system-tmp-cozy-desktop, to make sure even people displaying hidden
  files in their file browser won't try to put files in it and expect them
  to be synchronized.
• Logging improvements (for debugging purpose)

Happy syncing!

UI improvements, support requests, MD5Sum, Windows hidden directories & fixes

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all users:

• You can now request support directly from the application.
• On the onboarding screen, you'll be warned in case you typed your email
  address instead of the address of your Cozy.
• The app will now start by default on login. You can still disable it in the
  settings.
• The activity indicator is now visible on deletions.
• Links are now opened in a new windows, so users don't end up with no way to
  get back.
• The content of a folder renamed offline will not be uploaded again.
• When a file was both updated locally and trashed remotely, it will be kept
  with the updated content.
• The app now enforces MD5Sum for all files, to ensure data consistency and to
  prevent weird issues.
• Disk space and revocation error messages should be clearer.
• Logs are easier to filter, which should help us to debug synchronization
  issues.

Improvements for Windows users:

• You should not see weird .cozy-desktop directories anymore (including in
  your home and your Cozy Drive directories).
• Fixed an issue with last modification date, which was preventing a file first
  uploaded through the Cozy Drive web app, then renamed locally, to be synced.

Automatic update fixes

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all platforms:

• When an update was available, the app used to display the version number and
  the release notes in the Settings. This was broken while migrating to the new
  auto-update system. The issue is partially fixed, but it only shows the
  summary instead of the full release notes for now.
• The auto-update migration also revealed another issue: the app was checking
  for updates every 1 or 2 minutes, triggering successive downloads of the
  latest release. This should work as expected now.

Improvements for Windows users:

• The app was not downloading updates from the appropriate location on Windows
  (while it was working on other platforms). This was fixed too.

Happy syncing!

Beta update, path/name limits, running app detection & Windows localization

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all platforms:

• A beta release! Although some cases remain where synchronization breaks, it
  mostly works on all 3 platforms. Please report every issue!
• Switching to beta was good timing to change the version number format, which
  should finally fix the last auto-updates issue.
• The app will detect and prevent synchronization of files/folders with
  paths/names too long for your system, so you never end up with unusable
  content on your hard drive.
• When starting Cozy Desktop, it will detect an already running instance of the
  app, make it visible and exit (instead of displaying a weird error message).

Improvements for Windows users:

• The app now detects and displays using the user language.

Happy syncing!

Automatic updates

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all platforms:

• A new auto-updates system which should work better on both Windows and macOS
• Fixed an issue preventing a locally renamed file to be updated on the remote
  Cozy

Improvements for Windows users:

• The weird animation that was displayed while installing the app since the
  alpha4 release should be replaced with a normal install dialog.

Finally, we would like to apologize to our Windows users, since auto-updates
actually didn't work in the alpha4 release. This should be fixed now. Thanks
for your patience.

Happy syncing!

Cozy Drive folder & Windows automatic updates

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all platforms:

• Files are now synchronized to your Cozy Drive folder (to better match the
  Cozy Drive app name). If your already had a Cozy folder set up,
  Cozy Desktop will continue to use it. If you want to switch to the new
  folder, you can disconnect from your Cozy in the Settings, rename your local
  Cozy folder to Cozy Drive (so you don't need to download everything
  again), then restart Cozy Desktop, register and use the new folder.
• Your computer now appears in your Cozy as Cozy Drive (your computer name).

Improvements for Windows users:

• Installer and app are signed now, which should prevent warnings and allow
  us to support automatic updates. Since we use a standard certificate (not
  one with Extended Validation), you'll still get a confirmation popup at
  install time, until the app gets enough reputation in Microsoft SmartScreen
  (the anti-phishing system included in Windows 8 and later).
• This release (and upcoming ones) should now support automatic updates. But
  previous releases didn't, so you'll still have to download and install this
  one by hand.
• A third-party component used by Cozy Desktop to monitor your local folder
  was updated, fixing some issues on Windows.

Happy syncing!

Windows support, offline/conflict resolution improvements, reserved filenames

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.

Improvements for all platforms:

• Restoring a folder from the Cozy trash is now supported.
• We fixed some conflict resolution issues. Creating / changing / restoring
  files with the same name should be more reliable now. Some issues remain,
  though.
• Most offline actions should work now, except for deletions.

Improvements for Windows users:

• A release! Getting a code signing certificate took more time than expected,
  though, so the app is not signed yet. This should be fixed in the next one.
• Windows file/dir paths are now supported, making the synchronization usable,
  hence the release.
• Files and folders with reserved name, reserved characters or terminating
  characters will not be synchronized locally and user will be warned.

Improvements for macOS users:

• The dock icon is now hidden when closing the Cozy Desktop window, so you
  don't see it with cmd-tab when running in background
• Files and folders with colon in their name will not be synchronized locally
  and user will be warned of this character as being reserved on macOS

Better conflict management

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.
Please note that this release and upcoming ones will only support the new Cozy stack v3.

• Improve conflict / error management and logging
• Rename app to Cozy Desktop (was cozy-desktop-gui), you'll have to remove the previous version manually.

macOS Testing Release

This is for testing purpose only.
Do not install it, unless you know what you're doing.
Please note that future releases will only support the new Cozy stack v3.

Fix range error

• Fix a big regression where sync stops working for a large number of files
