Please add a link to the release notes in the update dialog, so one can read them right away and decide if the update is worth installing immediately or can be postponed.

Thanks.

That's a good idea and I'll work on it. In the meantime, adding a link in the browser's Favorites list can be a good alternative.

(There are some complications to work through, because it isn't necessarily as simple as showing a link to the "latest" release, due to being able to install pending updates that aren't the latest, and also the possibility of starting to publish pre-release updates.)

But, I guess I could just add a link to the Releases page and let the user manually deal with the edge case of the pending install not being the actual latest version. It should be a rare situation.

I think the link you show after the update would be good enough. Let's hope that Clink users are "power" enough to find the correct release, and you can always make it better in a future release :)
