This week in FreeCAD development:

Sketcher

wwmayer added two commands, Delete All Constraints and Delete Filtered Constraints (PR#29993, cherry-picked by maxwxyz).
maxwxyz grouped Polyline and Line tools by default (PR#30347). He also brought back the original G,M shortcut for the Polyline tool (PR#30395) and re-added hints for that tool (PR#30344).
xorza patched the code so that when you long-press an edge shared by two internal faces, the clarify selection menu will now list both adjacent faces instead of only one (PR#29159).
PaddleStroke fixed tool shortcuts (PR#30348).
Reqrefusion patched the Arc tool so you can give an arc an angle by clicking while the angle tool is selected. (PR#29679).

tarman3 fixed regressions in DressupTag (PR#30267) and the freeze toggle (PR#30240), added checks for tolerance error and edges length (PR#29593), and patched Profile so you can add models as Base without subselection (PR#24194).
Connor9220 added the linking generator to the Engrave and Deburr operations so that the safe height is used for linking moves instead of the clearance height (PR#29959).

Roy_043 fixed a BSpline regression in Draft (PR#29858).
maxwxyz made it possible to use the Center of mass / Centroid mode for Links and Part containers in the Transform tool (PR#30208).
PaddleStroke fixed the extra grounded joint in Assembly appearing after reopening a file (PR#30314).
WandererFan improved TechDraw to allow horizontal/vertical dimensions between circle edges (PR#30379).
drwho495 reimplemented a few changes from the RealThunder’s fork to improve toponaming support for addons, such as SheetMetal (PR#24632).

Additional improvements and fixes were contributed by andershol, awgrover, Lgt2x, maxwxyz, PaddleStroke, rehan-ahmed-aix, Roy_043, and semhustej.
