Uh hai! Today the Wikimedia Release Engineering Team deployed a
software upgrade of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org
Changes that you may enjoy include:
* Autocomplete proposals in tasks: Propose already involved users
(e.g. task author, assignee, subscribers) first in the @-dropdown
* User profiles:
- Projects box: Always show "View All" button and number of projects
- History: Expose previous names of renamed users to admins only
* User settings:
- Personal API Token field: Auto-select token on click
- Never show timezone offset notification when user has set UTC
* Tasks: Fix "subtask created" entry creation in parent task timeline
* Conduit API:
- Fix HTTP 200 error setting non-string task points
- Add many missing parameter descriptions to the docs
- Convert numerous "Frozen" methods to Deprecated methods
- Convert nearly all Unstable methods to Stable methods
- (admins only) Allow filtering call logs by caller type (e.g. bots)
* Search:
- Fix using Typeahead Custom Fields (e.g. "Other Assignee")
- Project search: Make results adhere to project status dropdown value
* UI: Replace ambiguous "owner" strings with "assignee" or "author"
* Flags UI: Replace PNG flag images with SVG versions
* File Transforms: Hide "Available Transforms" when none are supported
* Dashboards: Chart Panels: Add proper chart key validation, at least
* (admins only) Projects: Expose users' MFA status in Members list
* (admins only) Config: Display each setting's config source on "All
Settings" page
* Misc bug fixes, code cleanup, CSS cleanup, etc.
Our downstream dependency tree of tasks is at
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404375
Changes that you may NOT enjoy (which already got deployed two weeks
ago) include requiring login to view project workboards, plus browsing
code repositories in Diffusion also asks for login, due to dealing with
aggressive webcrawlers versus our interest to keep the service stable.
As usual, if you have comments or questions about Phab, please bring
them up on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Phabricator/Help !
Cheers,
andre (on behalf of the Wikimedia Release Engineering Team)
