The v0 app surface is implemented,\nand the first GitHub release contains a Developer ID signed and notarized macOS\narchive.\n\nThe v0 goal is practical feature parity with Fork's public macOS feature set:\nrepository management, commit history, staging, rich unified and split diffs,\nbranch/tag/remote workflows, stashes, merge/rebase/cherry-pick/revert,\nsubmodules, reflog recovery, file history, blame, conflict assistance, Git-flow,\nGit LFS, GPG signing, and provider notifications.\n\n## Install\n\nDownload the latest notarized macOS disk image from\n[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/devaryakjha/bonsai/releases/latest).\nOpen the DMG, then drag `Bonsai.app` to the Applications shortcut.\n\nFor `v0.1.0`, the released assets are:\n\n- [`Bonsai.dmg`](https://github.com/devaryakjha/bonsai/releases/download/v0.1.0/Bonsai.dmg)\n- [`Bonsai.release.plist`](https://github.com/devaryakjha/bonsai/releases/download/v0.1.0/Bonsai.release.plist)\n\nThe release manifest records the build number, source commit, archive size,\nSHA-256, signing kind, team identifier, and notarization state.\n\n## Highlights\n\n- Native SwiftUI macOS app, packaged from SwiftPM.\n- Split and unified diff views with Git diff algorithm controls.\n- Commit history with graph lanes, search, changed-file inspection, and revision\n  actions.\n- Working tree staging, unstaging, patch copy, discard, ignore, and conflict\n  flows.\n- Branches, tags, remotes, worktrees, submodules, stashes, Git LFS, and GitHub\n  repository/notification workflows.\n- Spec-driven development: every meaningful feature lands with a focused spec\n  in `Specs/`.\n\n## Build\n\nRequirements:\n\n- macOS 14 or newer\n- Xcode command line tools\n- Swift 5.9 or newer\n\nBuild and launch Bonsai:\n\n```sh\nmake run\n```\n\nBuild, launch, and verify that the app process is running:\n\n```sh\nmake run-verify\n```\n\nBuild and validate a release-style app bundle without Apple credentials:\n\n```sh\nmake release-verify\n```\n\nExport the fallback `.icns` from the canonical Icon Composer document:\n\n```sh\nmake app-icon\n```\n\nRun the large repository performance smoke:\n\n```sh\nmake perf\n```\n\nCheck local distribution credential readiness:\n\n```sh\nmake release-doctor\nmake release-check-credentials\nmake release-github-doctor\nmake release-secret-template\nmake release-secrets-dry-run\nmake release-runner-workflow\nmake release-runner\n```\n\nThe credential checks are expected to fail on machines without a Developer ID\nApplication certificate and a valid notarytool profile. The workflow runner\ncheck only verifies the no-secret Jarvis toolchain required by GitHub Actions.\nMaintainer release setup is documented in `Documentation/ReleaseChecklist.md`,\n`Documentation/ReleasePackaging.md`, and `Documentation/GitHubReleaseSetup.md`.\nThe manual GitHub `Release` workflow defaults to a Jarvis dry run that builds\nand verifies the credential-free archive without entering the protected release\nenvironment or reading Apple release secrets.\n\nRun the standard validation gates before submitting changes:\n\n```sh\nmake validate\nmake run-verify\nmake release-verify\nmake release-verify-archive\nmake release-verify-artifacts\n```\n\n## Development\n\nBonsai is developed spec-first. Start with the relevant document in `Specs/`,\nkeep implementation slices small, and commit checkpoints as work lands.\nPull requests run on the Jarvis self-hosted macOS ARM64 runner for shell syntax,\n`swift test`, the large-repository performance smoke, and the credential-free\nrelease bundle, archive, and artifact verifiers.\n\nUseful project paths:\n\n- `Sources/Bonsai/App` - app entry point, commands, and scenes\n- `Sources/Bonsai/Views` - native macOS SwiftUI interface\n- `Sources/Bonsai/Stores` - observable app state and Git operation flow\n- `Sources/Bonsai/Services` - Git, GitHub, and process execution services\n- `Sources/Bonsai/Support` - parsers, rendering helpers, launchers, and policies\n- `Tests/BonsaiTests` - focused parser, command, workflow, and integration tests\n- `Documentation/ReleasePackaging.md` - release packaging, signing, notarization,\n  and artifact verification workflow\n- `Documentation/ReleaseChecklist.md` - first public release checklist\n- `VERSION` - bundle marketing version used by package scripts\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome. Please read\n`CONTRIBUTING.md` before opening a pull request, and keep UI changes aligned with\nthe interface standards and existing macOS conventions.\n\n## Security\n\nSee `SECURITY.md` for supported versions and vulnerability reporting guidance.\n\n## License\n\nMIT.
