The biggest barrier to code review is often time, but there’s a new way to easily understand how changes impact your code. Now you can navigate to changed methods and functions right from your pull request file finder.

Searching the file finder for a method or function in a Go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or TypeScript file will provide you with a timeline-style view of the results, so you can skip to the most impactful parts of a pull request. Check out the documentation to learn more.
We hope this helps make your review process even more efficient. Let us know if you have any feedback—or if there are other search functions you’d find useful using our help form.
