Summary of changes from February 13, 2016 to February 20, 2016.

• These changes have been promoted to stable.
• See also Development Notes (2016 Week 8).

General

• Repository callsigns are now optional.
• Workboards may now have background colors.

Security

• No notes in this period.

Migrations

"Duration" is the duration for this install, and may not be representative.

Upgrading and Compatibility

• Some scripts for migrating projects and points are now available in T10350.

Diffusion

• Moderately sized Mercurial repositories now show all of the files they contain.
• Commits on a large number of branches now show a few, then a "More Branches..." link.

Projects and Workboards

• On workboards, newer milestones now appear on the left, so the most recent milestones are the easiest to access in projects with a lot of milestones.
• Milestones are now sorted by milestone number, not ID, so artificially moved milestones sort correctly.
• Fixed an issue where column policies would be evaluated too strictly when projects had edit policies like "Project Members".
• Improved the error message when users who can not create projects try to create milestones.
• Watching a project now watches all subprojects, and watch rules for subprojects and milestones are more natural.
• You can now search for projects by watcher.

Minor

• Owners packages now have standard view and edit policies.
• Images embedded in Slowvote descriptions now get proper permissions.
• Fixed an interaction between objects from before the era of Spaces and forms with visibility controls hidden.
