Users of our classic Desktop applications—GitHub for Mac or GitHub for Windows—will see in-app notifications suggesting an upgrade to the new GitHub Desktop with information on what’s changed. If you’ve never used our desktop apps, try out the new GitHub Desktop.
When making changes to files with the web-based editor, you can now choose which verified email with which to author the commit (previously you could only use your primary email). If you have email privacy enabled, the commit will be authored with your private “noreply” email.
