Building on the recent Checks API release, we’re providing further actions that users can request from a check run. This feature enables users to select an action offered by the app. For example, users can push a button in GitHub to request that the app fixes previously found linter errors.
GitHub Desktop now allows you to compare your branch to any other branch in the repository, like your master or base branch, and merge that work into your current branch. We also added support for selecting multiple files to perform an action on by holding down Shift or Command/Ctrl and clicking on the files you want selected.
