We’ve been including the containing branches and tags on commit pages to give you more context around changes. Now, commits in a repository’s default branch will also show you the pull request that introduced them.
In the pull request, you can see the discussion around why the commit was introduced, and get a clearer picture of the reason for the change.
As always, if you know the commit SHA, you can skip the commit page and search for the pull request directly.
