Description

I am currently running 1.0.21-20170428110011+0ccdf77 on macos sierra and just received a notification to update, but the release notes seem to be the same as for the last update I installed. For a security-focused product, this is surprising. Is this a bug, or is keybase actually pushing out changes that have no associated release notes?
