When you push branches while using the “Pull requests” tab, GitHub will now display the dynamic “Compare and pull request” widget—so you can quickly create a pull request without having to switch back to the “Code” tab. Learn more about pull requests in our documentation.
Copy the URL of a comment
Previously, in order to grab a permalink to a comment within an issue or pull request, you’d need to copy the URL from a comment’s timestamp. Now you can click Copy URL within the comment’s options menu to quickly copy the URL to your clipboard.
