The GitHub Actions API beta is now available. In addition to reading workflow and run data, Actions users can now automate common scenarios like managing secrets or registering runners.
GitHub Desktop removes obstacles to help you be more productive
GitHub Desktop 2.3 brings two permissions from GitHub.com to your local machine to prevent obstacles and frustration:
- If you’ve cloned a repository that you don’t have write access to, you can now create a fork from within GitHub Desktop.
- If you’re on a branch that you don’t have permission to push to, GitHub Desktop warns you ahead of time so you don’t accidentally commit to the wrong branch.
You can now create and share search queries that resolve to the current user by using the @me search syntax.
For example, navigating to https://github.com/search?q=is%3Aissue+state%3Aopen+assignee%3A%40me (when logged into GitHub) will return all the open issues that are assigned to you. You can also type assignee:@me is:issue state:open into any search field to return the same results.
