Dependabot alerts: Dependency scope filter via GraphQL API

When using the GraphQL API, you can now filter Dependabot alerts by the scope of the dependency affected. The possible scopes are DEVELOPMENT or RUNTIME.

Dependency scope information is available for alerts opened on or after June 23, 2022, and can also be viewed in the Dependabot alerts UI as of last week.

For more information, see Dependabot alerts in the GraphQL API reference or learn more about Dependabot alerts in our documentation.

The repository fork button now displays existing forks

A dropdown has been added to the Fork button to help you quickly find your forks of a repository. This includes forks in your personal account and in organizations that you're a member of.

Example of the "your existing forks" dropdown

This feature was inspired by Refined GitHub – an impressive open source project maintained by @fregante. The feature was requested of GitHub through the GitHub Stars program.

Read more about forking a repository in the GitHub documentation.

We appreciate feedback on this and other topics in GitHub's public feedback discussions.

Transitioning from MapBox to Azure Maps

GitHub is transitioning map rendering services from MapBox to Azure Maps in our Free, Pro, and Team plans. This includes maps embedded in the site file viewer, embedded maps, and maps rendered in markdown. As part of the transition, custom icons and formatting of features in geojson and topojson files will no longer be supported. This change will not impact our Enterprise Cloud instances which will continue to use MapBox for map rendering. Documentation can be found here: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/using-files/working-with-non-code-files#geometry-types
