What's new in 1.61.0
- :gf now removes all git information, including the git status filter
- :gs now removes all git information when toggled off, and no longer changes the hidden files setting
- a content search opened in the preview now shows the matching lines instead of the diff of a modified file
- quiet exit instead of a panic when stdout is closed, eg broot --help | head -1
- fix special paths pruned below second level - Thanks @VXNCXNX
