There hasn't been a stable build since October. The user is complaining about the Sublime development cycle, which is unlike most companies today. Sublime frequently goes 6-12 months without an update (Sublime Merge was a few days from 1 year between updates), but there is a lot of development happening in the background and test builds do exist.

The Sublime team seems to prefers 1 big and stable update vs 12 smaller and possibly less stable updates. It has its advantages and disadvantages.

Regardless, Merge is still the best Git GUI out there and this update just made it better. And Text is my favorite simple text editor out there (though I do prefer using a full IDE for actual development)
