Week of November 2, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week closed several security gaps: TOTP guessing, pull mirror credential reuse, missing user block checks on reviews, and duplicate team names. It also added a Terraform module registry, explicit latest release selection, and better handling of CJK issue references and multi-byte text. Two obsolete features were removed: repository adopt and the OpenID 2.0 draft.

This week: a Terraform module registry package type, failed TOTP attempts limited per account, pull mirror credentials no longer reused on a new host, user blocks enforced on reviews, and an explicit Set as Latest Release option. The repository adopt feature and OpenID 2.0 suppor

Post for LinkedIn

This week's changes include a private Terraform module registry package type, so terraform init and Terragrunt tfr:// can resolve modules from the project, and an explicit Set as Latest Release option with GitHub's make_latest field. Security and correctness fixes landed too: failed TOTP attempts are limited to 5 per account, pull mirror credentials are no longer reused when the address points at a new host, user blocks are enforced on pull request reviews and code comments, and team names are unique in the database. Issue references next to CJK punctuation now link. The repository adopt feature and OpenID 2.0 draft support were removed.

Week of October 26, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week's changes tighten permissions around projects, OAuth2 auto-linking and context user access, while fixing pushes that could be lost or leave branches stale. Users also get a Bitbucket Cloud migration, narrower commit status token scopes and faster repository issue and pull request lists.

Changelog entry

Example posts FoxPlug drafted from these changes. Not written or posted by the project.

Post for X

This week: Bitbucket Cloud migration, new commitstatus token scopes, pull requests without common history rejected again, safer OAuth2 auto-linking, project board permissions fixed, and pushes that finish even if the SSH client disconnects early.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's changes to the project: repository migration from bitbucket.org is available in the web UI and the migrate API, covering pull requests with their comments and reviews. New read:commitstatus and write:commitstatus token scopes let CI report commit statuses without full repository access. The API rejects pull requests between branches without a common history, OAuth2 auto-linking only links the account an external identity points to, and deleting a push mirror through the API now removes the stored git remotes and their credentials. Project board card moves require project write again, boards hide linked pull requests the viewer cannot read, and built-in SSH pushes finish when the client disconnects early.

Week of October 19, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brings migration support for Bitbucket Server alongside faster and more resilient GitHub and Gitea-compatible migrations, which matters to teams moving large repositories in. Webhook delivery history is now reachable through the API, and project workflows add event-based automation from the UI. Several fixes also address diffs of renamed files, editorconfig per branch, runner token verification CPU and artifact retention.

This week: Bitbucket Server migration arrives, GitHub and Gitea-compatible migrations get faster, webhook delivery history gets REST endpoints, and project workflows let you automate on events. Plus fixes for renamed-file diffs, per-branch editorconfig and artifact retention.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in Gitea: Migration from Bitbucket Server (Data Center) is now supported, including git data with tags and LFS, and pull requests with comments, approvals and inline code comments. GitHub migrations gained a batched GraphQL path that cuts rate-limit pressure on large repositories, and Gitea-compatible forge migrations were improved with many bug fixes. Webhook delivery history is now available through two REST API endpoints, so delivery request and response data can be fetched for debugging integrations or auditing. Project workflows add event-based automations configured from the UI. Also fixed: diffs of renamed files no longer fail on the compare page, the file view and editor use the viewed ref's editorconfig, successful runner token verification is cached, and requested artif

Week of October 12, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brought a new capability for Actions jobs that need cloud credentials without stored secrets, and closed a sign-in failure that affected Safari users on iOS. It also fixed several correctness problems in pull request merging, email notifications and package listings that people would hit during normal work.

This week: OpenID Connect workload identity for Actions jobs, WebAuthn sign-in fixed for Safari on iOS, recovery for pull requests with missing merge commits, and email reply tokens rejected for suspended accounts.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's changes in Gitea: Actions jobs can now use OpenID Connect workload identity to get short-lived tokens instead of stored secrets. Security-key and passkey sign-in from Safari on iOS works again. Pull requests whose merge commit never reached the base repository can be recovered, incoming email tokens are rejected for accounts that cannot sign in, custom watches can bypass the email-on-mention restriction, and the CRAN PACKAGES index now lists each package's highest version. The new issue pages also accept query parameters for labels, milestone, project and assignee.

Week of September 28, 2026
