This mini-update is a quick maintenance release for the Gemini CLIβa Command Line Interface tool that lets you interact with the Gemini AI directly from your computer's terminal (the text-based command screen) instead of a web browser. This release is a minor "patch" (a small update to fix a specific problem), meaning it only matters to users who want to make sure their tool has the latest behind-the-scenes bug fixes.
Fixes
- Applying a missed fix ("Cherry-picking"): The developers applied a single, specific code fix (called a "commit") from their development testing area directly into this public version. In software development, "cherry-picking" means grabbing one specific, helpful change from a list of edits and applying it where it's needed. While the official notes don't name the exact bug, this update ensures that a correction from the previous development cycle is now active and working.
Breaking changes
No breaking changes in this release.
