📝 What changed?

A panic in database work no longer fails silently: the query run, table page, import or AI assistant call it happened in ends with "BarSQL hit a bug", and a new panic hook writes the details to crash.log in the data folder. A few Postgres and MySQL reads that panicked on unexpected server values now return an error instead. The Windows installer is compressed with LZMA, which takes it from 23,732 KB to 15,714 KB (−34%). The version goes to 1.2.3.

📌 Notes

• The release profile keeps thin LTO, and panics still unwind. Fat LTO would make the exe 16% smaller but save only 3 MB per update and 1.7 MB of the installer, for twice the build time. panic = "abort" would save another 18 MB on disk, but any panic in database work would close the whole app.
• A query run that panics drops its tab's session, so that tab's open transaction is rolled back and the usual rolled-back notice appears. Other tabs and connections are untouched.
• UI actions that run on tokio through state::spawn show the bug as an error toast. The results pane keeps the panic message as the error's detail.
• crash.log appends each panic with its time and starts over past 1 MB. A panic in UI code still closes the app on Windows and macOS, and its log entry is followed by a second "cannot unwind" entry.
• crash.log backtraces are bare addresses, because the release exe is stripped and no PDB ships. The panic message and the file and line it came from are still there.
• Most of the remaining size comes from upstream: tiberius pulls in aws-lc (about 1.3 MB), GPUI Kit ships resvg 0.45 next to GPUI's 0.46 (about 1.1 MB), and GPUI enables 15 image formats (about 0.9 MB).
