12.03.26. GitHub Adds Custom Fields for Issue Tracking
GitHub now supports custom fields in issues and bugs, accessible both in the interface and through the API and Actions. Previously, users could only use labels, but these lacked types, validation, cross-repository consistency, and reporting capabilities. Custom fields can be configured by type (single selection, text, number, and date), filter lists, search by content, assign fields to issue types, and generate reports. You can even track who changed which field and when. By default, each organization receives four pre-configured fields assigned to the appropriate issue types: priority, effort, start date, and target date. Up to 25 fields can be created.
2024. GitHub Adds AI-Powered Code Reviewer
GitHub, the version control platform, has launched a new automated code scanning feature to detect and fix security vulnerabilities as you write code. This new feature combines the real-time capabilities of GitHub Copilot with CodeQL, a semantic code analysis engine. GitHub promises that this new system will be able to resolve more than two-thirds of detected vulnerabilities – often without requiring developers to edit the code themselves. The company also promises that automatic code scanning fixes will cover more than 90% of alert types in supported languages, which currently include JavaScript, Typescript, Java, and Python. GitHub believes that this feature allows developers to focus on more complex tasks rather than wasting time on routine bug fixes.
