GitHub Enterprise Server 3.1 is available as a release candidate
GitHub Enterprise Server 3.1 is available now as a release candidate.
The latest version of GitHub Enterprise Server brings a host of features to help teams focus on the work that matters most. That includes:
- GitHub Actions workflow visualizations – track and troubleshoot complex workflows at a glance
- Automerge pull requests – automatically merge a pull request the moment it’s ready
- Repository performance optimization – for large, busy repositories
Customers using GitHub Advanced Security will now benefit from the general availability of secret scanning, and support for more libraries and frameworks with code scanning than ever before.
For more information, see the full GitHub Enterprise Server 3.1 RC blog post.
You can now use the web UI to synchronize an out of date branch of a fork with its upstream branch. If there are no merge conflicts between the branches, the fork's branch is updated either by fast-forwarding or by merging from the upstream's branch. If there are conflicts, you will be prompted to open a pull request to resolve.
