 - **v0.7.9** — **macOS install/launch fixes**: the app's local store now opens under the OS app-data directory (a cwd-relative `gridline.db` made Finder-launched copies silently exit with a Rust panic before the UI started); macOS bundles are **ad-hoc signed at build time** (`signingIdentity "-"`), replacing the Xcode linker-only signature that macOS treated as unsigned ("damaged and can't be opened", silent Finder refusals) — users now get a standard one-time Gatekeeper prompt (see the [install notes](#installers-are-unsigned-for-now), incl. the `xattr` workaround); **OpenSSL is vendored** into the `ssh2` build so the release no longer depends on a Homebrew OpenSSL path; version bump.
 
 - **v0.7.8** — **SQLite `.dump` backup/restore** plus **backup / restore / sync for MySQL & SQLite** (mysqldump-based, system-first); **Excel (.xlsx) export** in the grid toolbar alongside CSV/JSON/SQL/Markdown; **cancel long-running queries** per connection; **settings export/import** (JSON); **Windows/Linux title bar fix** (macOS-only overlay drag strip); **SQLite table editor** (Create/Edit Table with SQLite-aware type mapping); version bump.
