New pull requests dashboard is now generally available
The refreshed pull requests dashboard is now generally available at github.com/pulls . It gives you a single home to track, prioritize, and act on the pull requests that need your attention, whether you’re an individual contributor or a manager working across many teams and projects. This experience was previously in public preview.
Per-user states for multi-user budgets in the REST API
You can now retrieve every user’s progress against a multi-user budget from a single REST API endpoint. This makes it much faster to find who is close to their limit across a large enterprise. Previously, you had to make one API call per user to check per-user consumption, and you couldn’t filter by how much of the budget someone had used.

Releases: Sidebar navigation and per-asset download counts
You can now scan and navigate release pages more easily with a dedicated sidebar table of contents.

Users with write access can also now see download counts per release asset directly in the Releases UI.
Restrict issue creation to collaborators only
Repository admins can now restrict issue creation to collaborators with write access. This gives you more control over who can open issues and helps reduce unwanted issue creation, while keeping issue workflows available to the people who actively maintain and contribute to the project.
Advanced search for Projects is generally available
The filter bar in GitHub Projects views now supports advanced search, so you can build the exact view you need with logical AND and OR instead of maintaining a separate view for every question. Just type an expression using OR , AND in the filter bar of any project view.
Repository admins can archive pull requests
Repository admins can now archive pull requests to remove them from public view without permanently deleting them. When a pull request is archived, it is closed and locked. Pull requests can be archived in bulk or on an individual basis. Archived pull requests are only visible to repository admins, and non-admin visitors to the URL receive a 404 response.
