Tugboat Changelog

v2.26.42

In This Release...

  • Project names can no longer include HTML markup characters like `<` and `>`. This prevents potential display issues and keeps your project list tidy. Legitimate names with ampersands, apostrophes, and accents still work as before.
  • The Tugboat CLI now remembers which repo and preview you're working with, so you don't have to copy-paste IDs for every command. Run `tugboat link` in your git checkout to bind the worktree to a Tugboat repo and preview — the CLI will automatically resolve commands like `tugboat start`, `tugboat log`, and `tugboat rebuild` without requiring an ID. Bindings are stored in `.git/config` and never committed, so each developer can link their own worktrees independently.
  • The `tugboat shell` command now exits with the remote command's actual exit code (perfect for CI scripts), can run without a TTY so stdout and stderr stay separate for cleaner logs, supports `shell=true` for pipes and quoting, and caps very large output so your scripts don't hang waiting for gigabytes of `yes`. Basically, we made it less chatty and more scriptable.
