+  - Improves test reliability and maintenance
+  - Automatically manages flaky or environment-specific tests
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Test Stability**: Fixed hanging tests by initializing rootCtx (822baa0, bd-n25)
+  - Prevents test hangs from context cancellation issues
+  - Better test isolation and cleanup
+
+- **Git Merge Driver**: Corrected placeholders from %L/%R to %A/%B (ddd209e)
