Smarter Recaps Date Picker Enhancements

We’ve updated the Recaps date picker with two key improvements: the date of your last published customer update is now highlighted, and a new quick-select option—“Since Last Published Update”—has been added.

This streamlines the recap process and helps ensure nothing important is missed.

An early May 2025 update

We're too excited to wait until the end of the month. So here is our May recap generated with the brand new Recaps builder!

Introducing Recaps

We’re introducing Recaps, a streamlined way to generate summaries of updates over a selected date range. Easily filter commits, preview results, and save recaps as needed. Key commits are highlighted as Key Updates and all commits are classified by their change type—think feature, bug-fix, refactor, etc.

Keyboard shortcuts make it fast to navigate, preview, and edit which commits are included—ensuring an efficient, focused workflow.

New Features
  • You can now manually create customer updates. If you already know what you want to say and you don't need a script: fuck it, do it live!
  • RSS and Atom feed support has been added for published updates, making it easy for your customers to keep up with the steady stream of changes you’re pushing out.
Bug Fixes
  • Products Settings. Fixed a problem that prevented proper display of accessible repositories in the "Add Repository" dropdown.

Introducing a New Design Layout

We've launched an exciting new design layout, GreatHub, to enhance your experience on our platform.

The new layout organizes information with a left column dedicated to your timeline and metadata, while the right column displays your content. This intuitive design helps you navigate information more efficiently.

We hope you love exploring this stylish and user-friendly interface!

Syndicate Your Changelog with RSS and Atom!

We've introduced a new feature that lets your customers stay in the loop with RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 feeds for your Changelog entries.

Subscribers can now stay informed of updates using their preferred feed reader. Feeds include all published entries and update automatically as new posts are published. URLs follow standard format: /feed.rss and /feed.atom.

Improved Styling for Customer Updates

We’ve made our customer updates easier to read by removing things like extra spacing and padding. This makes the layout cleaner and more consistent from one update to the next.

Enhanced Display of Repository Information in Updates

We've improved the way you view updates by including repository information in each customer update. Now, when you check an update, you'll see additional details like the repository name, making it easier to identify where commits originate from.

We've also redesigned the layout to improve readability and organization. You'll notice better-structured commit displays with clear repository names and commit dates, all styled for an enhanced user experience. This update ensures you have all the relevant information at your fingertips in a clean, easy-to-read format.
