Jul 1, 2025

In July 2025, the Blargian/ClickHouse team prioritized stability, UX integrity, and code quality by reverting several non-critical changes and ensuring existing workflows remained intact. Reverted TTL formatting changes to restore prior semantics and parsing behavior, and reverted the interactive SQL client tab handling to preserve the original paste UX. A minor comment typo fix in FiberStack.cpp was performed to improve code readability. These changes reduce risk of unintended behavior, lower support overhead, and establish a solid baseline for future enhancements.
