Action log line numbers are now links

In order to align the experience of linking to Actions log lines and linking to code we have made the line numbers in Actions logs links. Previously, we showed a button when the line was hovered that would copy a link to the line number to your clipboard.

If you have any questions or thoughts about these changes, we recommend sharing in our GitHub Community Forum’s Actions Board!

GitHub Actions are triggered by webhook events. The original payload of the event is stored in a file that actions can read at workflow/event.json (see the docs). We’ve made a slight change to the payload for push events in Actions. The following attributes have been removed from the commits section of push payloads for Actions:

  • added
  • removed
  • modified

These diffs can instead be requested using the API https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/commits/#get-a-single-commit.

GitHub has updated the default security alert email setting to be a single email which details the impact of a new vulnerability across all of your repositories. Previously, for a new vulnerability GitHub sent one email per repository. Users who have opted to receive a digest email of security vulnerabilities instead of individual emails are unaffected by this change.
