Summary of changes from March 2, 2018 to March 9, 2018.

• These changes were promoted to stable.

General

[] Owners: Owners autoreview rules can now be configured to act on every matching revision, regardless of who authored the change. Previously, Owners autoreview rules did not trigger if a revision's author was a package owner.

Owners now handles the paths /src/backend and /src/backend/ identically. Previously, one worked and one silently failed without warning you.

Owners now supports path rules where the path length is longer than 255 characters.

Performance of some Owners queries may be a bit better if you have a large number of packages and paths.

Owners now uses a tokenizer (rather than a huge, poorly ordered <select /> control) for repository selection.

The owners.search Conduit API method now returns more information about packges (autoreview, autoaudit, and dominion settings).

Security

• No notes in this period.

Migrations

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

Upgrading / Compatibility

• [] Modern *.edit API endpoints now return an integer for the "id" field, not a string. For example, "id": "123" is now "id": 123.

Minor

See T13099 for discussion of minor changes.

• [] Lint messages in deleted files are now rendered on the left-hand side of the screen. Previously, they were hidden because there was nowhere to render them on the right-hand side.
• [] Fixes some cases where setup issues early in the stack could interact poorly with efforts to set Content-Security-Policy headers.
• [] PhabricatorGlobalLock is now parameterized and a lock log can be configured with bin/lock log --enable. This is primarily a debugging and support tool.
• [] transaction.search now returns richer information for "Revision Closed" and "Revision Updated" transactions, including information about which commits (if any) prompted the action.
• [] When Phabricator is configured as an OAuth server and a user autheticates with a trusted client using Chrome, then is prompted to enter MFA, we now issue a client-side redirect because Chrome blocks the server-side redirect as violating the form-action Content-Security-Policy.
• [] Regular expressions that fail to match in Herald because of backtracking or recursion limits now raise better error messages.
• [] Context-free stories about landing revisions irresponsibily are no longer shown in feed.
• Fixed an issue where line anchors in Diffusion were disrupted by infrastructure changes impacting Harbormaster.
• [] Corrected some issues where the Lightbox interacted incorrectly with changes related to Content-Security-Policy.
• The {image ...} and {meme ...} Remarkup rules no longer violate the Content-Security-Policy for installs with a CDN domain configured.
• The {image ...} remarkup rule no longer requires prototypes to be enabled.
• [] diffusion.repository.search now supports querying by shortNames.
• [] Draft revisions now have more reminder text.

The [] icon indicates a change backed by support mana.
