Summary

This PR merges the current development branch on top of master and brings in the accumulated Cmder work since the last sync.

The biggest themes in this branch are:

  • Windows Terminal support and related launcher/runtime updates
  • A refactor of the build/pack scripts around package profiles
  • Workflow/CI cleanup and consistency fixes
  • A batch of shell, launcher, and configuration improvements
  • Documentation and repo hygiene updates

What’s included

Windows Terminal support

This branch adds and refines support for launching Cmder in Windows Terminal, including:

  • new/default Windows Terminal settings
  • launcher updates in Cmder.bat and launcher/src/CmderLauncher.cpp
  • new helper scripts for Git Bash, Mintty, and profile generation
  • updates to shell integration files like vendor/cmder.sh, vendor/profile.ps1, and vendor/psmodules/Cmder.ps1
  • support files for Windows Terminal defaults in vendor/windows_terminal_default_settings.json

Build and packaging refactor

The build system has been modernized to use package profiles and shared helpers:

  • new scripts/package-profiles.json
  • new helper logic in scripts/utils.ps1
  • updated scripts/build.ps1, scripts/pack.ps1, and scripts/update.ps1
  • refreshed examples and documentation in scripts/README.md

This makes the packaging flow more structured and easier to extend.

Workflow and CI updates

The GitHub Actions workflows were cleaned up and aligned with the new scripts:

  • build workflow updates
  • tests workflow updates
  • CodeQL workflow updates
  • vendor workflow updates
  • summary formatting and artifact handling improvements

Cmder launcher and runtime improvements

This branch also includes a substantial update to the launcher and core runtime behavior:

  • launcher project and resource updates
  • CmderLauncher.cpp changes for the new launch flow
  • improvements to Cmder.bat
  • updates to vendor/init.bat, vendor/lib/lib_base.cmd, and vendor/lib/lib_path.cmd
  • shell startup and environment setup cleanup

Documentation and repo hygiene

A number of documentation and maintenance updates are included as well:

  • README.md and config/Readme.md adjustments
  • CHANGELOG.md updates
  • .gitignore and packignore additions
  • .git-blame-ignore-revs for cleaner blame history

Notes

This branch is mostly a consolidation of the Windows Terminal work, launcher/runtime improvements, and packaging refactors that have been developed on development.

Verification

The updated workflows were run successfully on development, including:

  • Build
  • Tests
  • CodeQL

Files touched

This merge includes changes across:

  • GitHub Actions workflows
  • build and pack scripts
  • launcher source

Moved -verbose to the end of the line so the command order stays consistent with the rest of the workflow calls.

Keep the PowerShell common parameter at the end of command lines for consistent, readable invocations across workflows and docs. Requested by @DRSDavidSoft.
Restore the build summary artifact link and keep the slim package naming aligned with the open backlog discussion.
Bring back file-type emojis and code-formatted profile headings in the package summary while keeping the new profile-based artifact layout.

Upload each package file separately again so the build summary can link to the individual artifact downloads, matching the previous behavior.
