  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

  • Requests for some file resources like a zip archive or raw file could enter a redirection loop.
  • A timeout could prevent some Issues and Pull Requests searches from providing complete search results.
  • Custom tabs with non-alphabetic characters in small screens did not render correctly.
  • An underlying behavior was causing failures when pushing content to a Git LFS-enabled repository.
  • In some rare cases issues could cause a 500 error when accessed via the web interface.
