  Quick PSA to anyone who has used #Mattrbld before and is wondering why it’s not updating to v1.0: It seems that due to the change in underlying architecture, your browser might not be able to automatically detect that there is a new version available. You can force it to load the newest version by performing a hard refresh, that is done by clicking the refresh button while holding down the Shift-key. In some browsers you may also use Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R. Sorry for the inconvenience!

  PSA: there currently is some maintenance work going on on the backend, which is why the default CORS proxy server is currently not active and syncing will not work if you rely on that proxy. Edit: everything should be back up and running as usual. Thank you for your patience!

You can learn more how to create them here: https://docs.gitlab.com/user/profile/personal_access_tokens/#create-a-personal-access-token The only scopes Mattrbld requires are: read_repository and write_repository Using an a...
