Over the past couple of days, you may have noticed a new piece of UI, GitHub broadcasts:
We’ll be using this feature to announce significant new feature additions and changes to GitHub. Once you’ve read the broadcast, click hide broadcast and it won’t show up until we post a new broadcast. If you missed broadcasts in between logging in, we’ll let you know how many you missed (view (2) new broadcasts) which you can always see at this link: http://github.com/blog/broadcasts
In case you’ve been living under a rock, here’s some of the new stuff we’ve launched at GitHub over the past couple of months:
- Explore GitHub
- Notification Improvements
- Improved Commit Diffs
- New Repository Headers
- Merge commits are back (and better than ever)
Fun fact: we’ve launched over 1,200 commits and 130,000 line changes since December. (and that’s only to the main GitHub application!)
