Highlights

• Entity Relationship Diagrams - Beekeeper can now generate entity relationship diagrams of your entire database, schema, or just a table. Access through Tools -> Open ER Diagram or by right clicking on a table/schema in the entity sidebar. Read more here
• Super Formatter - Take control of how Beekeeper formats your queries. We've included several presets for you, but feel free to customize this to your hearts content and save your own. Click on the button in the bottom right of the query editor to try it out! Read more here
• Manual Commit Mode - Ensure that changes are only committed to your database when you are sure you want them. Use the new Manual Commit mode to make sure that every statement is run within a transaction, is only committed when you want it to be, and that transactions are not left open to annoy your DBA.

• Redis Rewrite - Huge thanks to @mrsimb for not only writing the initial implementation of Redis support for Beekeeper, but also deciding it wasn't good enough and rewriting the entire thing with a new underlying driver, better connectivity, and a completely custom autocomplete system. An absolutely legendary contributor 🔥 🔥
