Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.3.0

Pre-Release v1.3.0

Description

Starting from this build it's now possible to add groups. This is a functional preview release only. Use Group input field to define a group for a certain host. Use z shortcut to switch between groups.

If you have lots of hosts in your database, probably it's better to edit hosts.yaml directly in your favorite text editor. You can find hosts.yaml in the app's home folder (see gg -v output to get app's home path on your system).

Warning

The work is still in progress - some unit tests are failing and some corner cases are not yet fully covered with tests. There might be bugs hiding.

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

**ssh-copy-id for Windows users

Windows OS does not come with the ssh-copy-id utility, which is commonly found in Unix-like systems, thus goto relies on a basic set of naive shell commands which echo your public ssh-key to the designated ssh server, targeting the remote path /$USER_HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys.

The most obvious issue with this approach is that goto doesn't verify whether the key is already present on the remote server, this can lead to duplicate entries in your /$USER_HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys file, though it should not be a problem, it is certainly far from ideal.

Please consider thatssh-copy-id feature for Windows OS is currently in testing phase. I'm working to improve its functionality. Your criticism and suggestions are very welcomed. You can review the current implementation here.

• Preserve host order when filter is enabled [details].
• Take default SSH parameters from system SSH configuration [details].
