+* Mon Dec 15 2025 Kevin Veen-Birkenbach <kevin@veen.world> - 1.8.0-1
+- *** New Features: ***
+- **Silent Updates**: You can now use the `--silent` flag during installs and updates to suppress error messages for individual repositories and get a single summary at the end. This ensures the process continues even if some repositories fail, while still preserving interactive checks when not in silent mode.
+- **Repository Scaffolding**: The process for creating new repositories has been improved. You can now use templates to scaffold repositories with a preview and automatic mirror setup.
+
+*** Bug Fixes: ***
+- **Pip Installation**: Pip is now installed automatically on all supported systems. This includes `python-pip` for Arch and `python3-pip` for CentOS, Debian, Fedora, and Ubuntu, ensuring that pip is available for Python package installations.
+- **Pacman Keyring**: Fixed an issue on Arch Linux where package installation would fail due to missing keys. The pacman keyring is now properly initialized before installing packages.

 * The `origin` remote is always enforced to use the primary URL for both fetch and push.
