Release Notes

Added

• Dual-pane file transfer (Ctrl-t on a host): a two-pane browser — local files on one
  side, the host's on the other — to copy files and folders either direction over SFTP, with
  fuzzy search on both sides and live progress. Authenticates once via an ssh ControlMaster
  that reuses the host's existing auth (keys / agent / ProxyJump, or a stored password through
  SSH_ASKPASS), then runs sftp over it — no PTY, no per-file re-prompt, and ~/.ssh/config
  is never touched. Tab switches panes, →/Enter opens a directory, Ctrl-s sends the
  selection, Esc cancels; a same-named destination is skipped (not overwritten) and symlinks
  are flagged and skipped. No new dependencies.
• --transfer-log <FILE> (also $SSHELF_TRANSFER_LOG): append the transfer screen's
  ssh/sftp commands and their errors to a file for debugging — no secrets are logged.
