Summary

Netlify has made significant improvements to its Deploy Previews feature, which allows users to deploy every pull request from their Git repository to a unique URL. The new update makes the deploy logs publicly visible by default when linking a public repository to Netlify, allowing contributors to see how their changes build without needing to be collaborators on Netlify. This change is aimed at making it easier for open source projects to collaborate and provides more visibility into the build process. Users can still choose to keep their deploy logs private if needed, and some of the most well-known open source projects on Netlify have already adopted this feature, showcasing its potential benefits.
