Good afternoon and happy new year,
We're currently working on another maintenance update to BBEdit
13 to address a few recently reported issues.
Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. The intent is to fix
bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our
customers have reported. However, since the software is at this
point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions.
If this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the
public release versions is your best course of action. Nobody
will be offended if you choose to do so; you're under no
obligation to install and use anything but a public release. :-)
Complete change notes to date for all the pre-release builds in
this cycle are available here:
<

The change notes are organized into additions, changes, and
fixes, and are annotated where appropriate with case numbers. So
if you recognize a number corresponding to a support case that
was opened for you, you can now verify that it's been fixed
correctly. Please take the time to review the changes before
using the new build -- it'll be worth your time.
One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version,
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking
about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please
send a bug report to <
sup...@barebones.com> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.
Here is the list of changes made since the previous pre-release build:

Fixes
-----
* Fixed bug in which using the Grep pattern menu in the text
factory "Replace All" sheet would change the edit field
font to
the system default, rather than the font set in "Editor
Defaults".
* Fixed bug in which choosing a grep pattern from the popup menu
in the "Find & Mark All" sheet would change the edit field font
to the system default, rather than the font set in "Editor
Defaults".
* [383952] Fixed bug in which certain keywords in an assigned
function definition would confuse the JavaScript function and
fold generator.
* [383967] Fixed a bug in which the Pattern Playground text fields
would allow pasting or dragging of things which were decidedly
not plain text.
* [383922] Made a change to update the "date last used" properties
of files that BBEdit opens itself, such as through its Open panel
or via Open File by Name, as well as new files that you create
with "Save As". Such items will now show up in the Finder's
"Recents" list, if you use that.
* [383745] Git revision lists now show the author's name, rather
than the committer's, so that the revision history in repos using
squash-and-merge is more useful than before.
* [383692] Fixed bug in which class parameters would confuse the
Ruby function scanner and fold generator.
* [383572] Fixed a bug in which the file types made available in
the Markup Builder for the `poster` attribute in HTML5 `video`
elements were not correct.
* Fixed a bug in which empty folders, or folders which contained
no eligible items, were included in the Markup Builder's
file URI
attribute value menu.
