Introduce install checkpoint support and resume logic for updates, plus related locking and validation. Adds InstallCheckpoint model, AppJsonContext serialization, and UpdatePaths helpers for deployment lock, apply-in-progress lock and install-checkpoint path. UpdateEngineService gains checkpoint load/save/delete, incoming-state validation, resume logic for PLONDS and legacy updates, apply lock handling, and safer cleanup; ApplyPendingPlondsUpdateAsync and ApplyPendingUpdate flow updated accordingly. Add DeploymentLock contract and extend UpdateState with pause/resume/cancel helpers. Tests updated to cover stale/valid checkpoint resume and legacy/PLONDS flows. CI: enhance ddss-publish to detect release channel, validate S3 assets, prepare and atomically publish channel pointer; add ddss-rollback workflow to publish rollbacks; adjust plonds-build concurrency and release events.
Replace UI DispatcherTimer polling with a StudySnapshotRenderGate across multiple widgets to queue and apply only the latest analytics snapshot; components updated include StudyDeductionReasonsWidget, StudyEnvironmentWidget, StudyInterruptDensityWidget, StudyNoiseCurveWidget. Add StudySnapshotRenderGate implementation to coordinate rendering and monitoring leases and update subscription/lease lifecycle handling (subscribe/unsubscribe, Acquire/Dispose leases, Clear/Dispose gate). Rewrite chart controls (StudyNoiseCurveChartControl and StudyNoiseDistributionScatterChartControl) to use stable logical-time origins, split series into static vs dynamic tails, add geometry/sample caching, stable jitter/coordinate mapping helpers, and expose internal helpers & counts for testing. Add unit tests (StudyComponentRenderingTests) covering the render gate and chart behaviors (layer counts, logical X mapping, stable jitter, cache rebuild). These changes improve rendering correctness and performance by avoiding redundant renders and enabling deterministic chart layout.
Add automatic release version stamping and multiple launcher reliability improvements. The Release workflow now runs scripts/Set-ReleaseVersion.ps1 in build jobs to inject tag-derived Version/AssemblyVersion into project metadata; several .csproj/Directory.Build.props and app.manifest files were changed to use a dev placeholder. Introduced AppVersionProvider (and related runtime metadata) to centralize version resolution and updated DeploymentLocator to use it and to prefer package-root/version.json. Launcher startup flow was hardened: added startup success tracking, public-activation recovery path, improved success/fallback semantics, and related IPC handling. UI/UX fixes include OOBE entrance/exit animation improvements (scaling-aware, concurrent fade+translate) and minor window lifecycle reorder in DesktopShellHost. CommandContext now recognizes restart and key=value args. New DesktopTrayService and .trae spec files (spec, checklist, tasks) document shell/tray hardening work. Miscellaneous logging, comments and housekeeping edits across launcher and shared contracts to support the above.
- Update .csproj files automatically with version from git tag
- Ensures version consistency across all platforms (Windows/Linux/macOS)
- Version flow: git tag v1.0.1 .csproj updated app displays 1.0.1
- Add VERSION_SYNC_INFO.md documentation
- Supports all three build jobs: build-windows, build-linux, build-macos
