Rapid Diffs improves performance for commit changes
Rapid Diffs improves performance for commit changes
Reviewing commits with many changed files or substantial modifications can be slow.
Rapid Diffs technology now powers the commits page (/-/commits/<SHA>), delivering faster
loading times, smoother scrolling, and more responsive interactions.
With Rapid Diffs, you’ll notice:
- A pagination-free experience.
- Faster initial load, so you can start working with code sooner.
- A refreshed interface with a new file browser for quicker navigation between files.
- Responsive interactions, even with large numbers of changed files.
All existing functionality is preserved. As Rapid Diffs expands to other areas of GitLab, the same performance benefits will follow.
Support for Bitbucket Cloud API tokens in import API
Support for Bitbucket Cloud API tokens in import API
The GitLab import API now supports Bitbucket Cloud API tokens, providing a more secure way to import repositories from Bitbucket Cloud.
Atlassian has deprecated app passwords in favor of API tokens, and we’re planning to remove support for app passwords in 19.0.
Importing from Bitbucket Cloud through the GitLab UI is not affected by this change.
