Release version 1.8.2

* Move VS Code workspace logic (incl. guards) from cli.commands.tools into cli.tools.vscode
* Extract shared repo path resolution into cli.tools.paths and reuse for explore/terminal
* Simplify cli.commands.tools to pure orchestration via open_vscode_workspace
* Update existing tools command unit test to assert delegation instead of patching removed internals
* Add new unit tests for cli.tools.paths and cli.tools.vscode (workspace creation, reuse, guard errors)

+## [1.8.2] - 2025-12-16
+
+* * ***pkgmgr tools code*** is more robust and predictable: it now fails early with clear errors if VS Code is not installed or a repository is not yet identified.
+
+
+## [1.8.1] - 2025-12-16
+
+* * Improved stability and consistency of all Git operations (clone, pull, push, release, branch handling) with clearer error messages and predictable preview behavior.
+* Mirrors are now handled cleanly: only valid Git remotes are used for Git operations, while non-Git URLs (e.g. PyPI) are excluded, preventing broken or confusing repository configs.
+* GitHub authentication is more robust: tokens are automatically resolved via the GitHub CLI (`gh`), invalid stored tokens are replaced, and interactive prompts occur only when necessary.
+* Repository creation and release workflows are more reliable, producing cleaner Git configurations and more predictable version handling.
+
+
+## [1.8.0] - 2025-12-15
+
+* *** 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.
+
+
 ## [1.7.2] - 2025-12-15
 
 * * Git mirrors are now resolved consistently (origin → MIRRORS file → config → default).
