GitHub Desktop 2.9 includes squashing, reordering, amending, and more!

GitHub Desktop's recent updates enhance user experience by expanding drag-and-drop functionality, allowing users to squash and reorder commits, amend previous commits, and start new branches from earlier commits, thereby improving commit history management. These features enable developers to maintain a coherent project narrative by consolidating related commits and easily reorganizing them. Additionally, users can now create branches from any point in their history to investigate issues or build hotfixes without affecting current work. The update also includes native support for Apple Silicon, offering improved performance on devices with the M1 chip, thanks to contributions from Dennis Ameling.
