Nightly updates flowing again after Git Updater 14.x fix — one-time action needed for stuck sites

[bph]

If your test site hasn't seen a Gutenberg Nightly update since late July, here's what happened and how to unstick it.

What broke: Git Updater 14.0.0 (released July 21) had a regression in how it detected updates for plugins using a rolling nightly-tagged release asset. Every site running 14.x stopped being offered new nightly builds even though builds were still shipping daily.

What's fixed: Andy Fragen shipped Git Updater 14.2.3 on August 5 to address it, and I've just added a small filter to gutenberg.php that Git Updater 14.x expects for plugins configured this way.

What you need to do (once, if your site is stuck):

• Option A: WP admin → Git Updater → Settings → Refresh Cache → then Dashboard → Updates and install the new Gutenberg Nightly if it appears.
• Option B: Download the latest zip from https://gutenbergtimes.com/need-a-zip-from-master/ and upload it manually via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin (overwrites the existing install).

After you're on the version with the new filter, daily updates should resume flowing automatically. Questions here or ping me on WP Slack.

Big thanks to Andy for the fast turnaround. 🙏
