A lot of things happen behind the scenes whenever OBS runs an SCM/CI workflow. Sometimes, you might want to know which workflow failed or completed successfully and the only way to do this is by visiting the workflow runs UI. This time we tried to improve this and other details in the SCM/CI integration.
Read more...Big projects usually shift the conversation to external bug tracking platforms and therefore don’t want to end up having lots of comments on their OBS project. For this reason we are introducing comment locks. On top of this we enhanced the reporting feature by a set of categories to ease the submission.

Read more...After implementing the feature that allows the users to comment on specific lines in the changes of a request, we also introduced the possibility to notify about them. However, there was a corner case which caused the notifications to fail, so our reference server did not send any web notifications or emails during the Easter holidays (from 6th to 11th April).

This time we have focused on improving comments on lines in the Changes tab, enhancing the requests with multiple actions and supporting requests that intend to delete projects/packages and to change the development package of a package.
