## Summary

Forgejo v12.0 introduces significant UX improvements including redesigned user profiles, better per-commit review navigation, and fork synchronization features. Performance enhancements include faster conflict checking using git merge-tree and optimized database query routing with read-replica support. New features include glTF 3D model previews, SSH-based instance signing as an alternative to OpenPGP, email notifications for failed Actions workflows, and automatic workflow status refreshing. The release also includes a default robots.txt to reduce crawler impact, localized relative time display, and build optimizations using Zstd compression.
