Git Clone, MCP Folder Ops, and Encryption Recovery

2026.1.2

This release focuses on Git workflow improvements. You can now clone Git repos directly from Yaak, and manage branches more easily with new submenus in the Git dropdown.

The MCP server plugin also got an update to support CRUD operations for folders.

🌿 Git branch flow improvements

Branch-related Git operations have been moved from libgit2 to use the git binary directly. This ensures consistent behavior when performing tricky merge and checkout operations. push, pull, and a few other commands already operated in this way.

The Git dropdown now also adds submenus to make branch operations easier to access. The gist? You can now rename/delete/merge a branch without having to check it out first.
