Added #

• Tighter VSCode integration, with configuration and settings management. FVM will now automatically configure VSCode to use the correct Flutter SDK version, triggering a terminal path update, so you can just use flutter commands instead of fvm flutter
• Git Flutter repository mirroring for faster cloning of new versions.
• Added a check in .gitignore for the '.fvm' directory, and auto-adding it if necessary.
• Added verification if cached Flutter SDK has been upgraded, and provide options for corrective actions.
• Added a check for Flutter SDK constraints check for compatibility with current project.
• Improved FVM configuration management and settings.
• Ability to override FVM settings on a per project basis.
• Windows "unprivileged" mode. If you choose to run fvm in unprivileged mode, it will not require admin rights to run; however, local Flutter SDK project references will be absolute paths instead of relative links.

Improvements #

• Much improved DX with better error messages and logging, and more helpful information and how to proceed.
• Color output when using fvm flutter command proxy.
• Better SDK switching workflow per project. Handle more edge cases, by doing SDK comparisons.
• Better fvm doctor command. Now provides much better output and information about the project and environment.

• Improved fvm releases output.
• Improved fvm list output.
• Better error checking for fvm global command.
• FVM update check now runs only once a day.

Changed #

• Command fvm releases now defaults to stable channel. Use --all flag to see all releases, or filter by channel.
• Removed "flavor" command in favor for fvm use {flavor}
• Removed "destroy" command in favor of fvm remove --all
• Config file is now .fvmrc instead of .fvm/fvm_config.json, and .fvm can be added to .gitignore, FVM will migrate it automatically.
• You can now use fvm use {version} --env {flavor} as an alias for flavor. Might be deprecated in the future since env has become a better description for environment specific settings than flavor.
• When installing or using a Flutter repo commit hash, hash needs to be 10 digits. FVM will now validate it and provide the correct hash if it can.

Breaking Changes #
