You can no longer use password-based HTTP basic authentication for the few endpoints on GitHub.com that previously supported it. The affected endpoints include Atom feeds, a legacy repository archive endpoint, and a GitHub Enterprise only “stafftools reports” endpoint. This functionality will continue to work with personal access tokens. Password-based HTTP basic authentication for these endpoints will continue to function for GitHub Enterprise, but is deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming release.
Updates to GitHub Actions (limited public beta)
GitHub Actions now supports built-in CI/CD. Build and test your code in parallel with hosted runners for Linux, macOS, and Windows. And new live logs display your workflow in realtime. You can write Actions in JavaScript or create container Actions, so they work on every type of runner.
The dependency graph has added support for scoped npm packages. Scoped packages like @angular/angular
will be accurately listed in the dependency graph, used by, and community contributors views.
