Project details in issues sidebar

Project board columns can now be changed directly from an issue sidebar. This means less context switching between an issue and a project. There are also updated issue sidebar visuals for projects which better delineates the details from multiple projects. In addition, issues that are moved to a column from the sidebar or via project board automation will now appear at the bottom of the board column (previously they appeared at the top of the column).

The Actions Tab Gets a New Look

The Actions tab is getting an exciting new look and many new features based on feedback from our users. Today you will see the following improvements:

  • Runs are now organized by the workflows that currently exist on the repository. To see older runs – like those from workflows with a different name or new ones from a branch, you can check out the “All workflows” filter.
  • In addition to linking your runs to their respective pull requests, there’s now the option to cancel a run that’s in progress as well as view the workflow file within the context of that run.
  • The “New workflow” button takes you back to the “Get started with GitHub Actions” page.
  • With a few performance tweaks, the tab now loads even faster!

If you have any questions or thoughts about these changes, we recommend sharing in our GitHub Community Forum’s Actions Board!

Team Synchronization is now generally available for GitHub Enterprise Cloud organizations. With team synchronization, Enterprise Cloud organizations can synchronize Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) group membership to GitHub teams. We will make this functionality available for enterprise account SAML integrations and extend support to additional identity providers in the near future.
