Today we’re happy to release Pulse. Pulse is a great way to discover recent activity on projects. Maybe you haven’t checked on your favorite repository in a while or you just discovered a project that looks interesting to you. Pulse will show you who has been actively committing and what has changed in a project’s default branch.
Pulse is also a great way to see new and merged pull requests, open and closed issues, and unresolved discussions.

You can find the link to the left of the nav bar.

Enjoy!
