New release: Beads v0.24.1

[steveyegge]

UPDATE -- it's now v0.24.2, fixed a few more bugs.

I spent my 6-hour flight back from NYC working on Beads and got some stuff done.

The CHANGELOG.md has the gory details, lots of fixes.

Highlights:

Fixed 3-way merge

bd sync was basically always failing, and it's because we had the wrong substitution strings in the merge template. "%L" and "%R" instead of "%A" and "%B".

It's fixed now, but unfortunately this is a git configuration issue, and everyone will have to run bd doctor -fix to get it fixed; you'll get detailed instructions next time you see the error when you try to sync. It's easy peasy.

Faster tests

The tests were taking 8+ minutes to run; they're down to about 3 minutes now.

Actually, I was able to optimize them so heavily (put in hours and hours of work) that the entire test suite finishes in a few seconds. It's insane. But compiling and preparing the tests takes like 2 minutes. So the test run is longer.

I'm open to ideas (and PRs) about how to further improve our test speed. It really puts a drag on iteration/productivity when the tests take forever.

bd search and bd count

Two cool new commands for doing searching and counting/grouping.

Thanks to @riordanpawley for the suggestion for bd search!
