Summary

GitHub has enhanced its commit pages by including information about branches and tags for more context. Now, commits on a repository’s default branch also display the pull request that introduced them, allowing users to view discussions and understand the reasons behind changes. Users can bypass commit pages if they have the commit SHA by searching for the pull request directly. Further details are available in the Help documentation, and the update was announced by Yossef Mendelssohn.
