Release Notes

Command: edit

Fixed

Fix edit --add dropping existing git exclude entries

When adding files to an applied overlay, the git exclude section was rewritten with only the newly added files, silently removing entries for previously managed files. This caused those files to reappear in git status after the add operation. Rebuilt the full exclude list from overlay state, matching the pattern already used by edit --remove.

Changed

Clarify that overlay NAME must precede --add/--remove flags

The --add and --remove flags accept multiple values and greedily consume trailing arguments. Running edit --add file.txt name fails because name is parsed as a second file. Updated help text to document the required argument order.
