Hi
this
is
daniel
grusso.
I
am
the
pm
for
the
create
source
code
group
here
at
gitlab,
and
today,
I'd
like
to
share
with
you
the
kickoff
for
gitlab
release,
13.10,
which
we'll
be
shipping
out
to
the
world
on
march
22nd
2021.
So,
let's
get
right
to
it.
The
first
thing
that
the
source
code
team
will
be
focusing
on
is
add
the
allow
to
force
push
option
to
protect
the
branches.
A
All
of
that
is
lost
when
you
unprotect
and
reprotect,
and
second
there
are
certain
incidents
where
let's
say
you
have
an
instance
where
you
have
a
developed
branch
and
a
master
branch,
and
there
was
some
fire
fighting
done
on
the
master
branch
and
it
was
patched
to
get
production
back
up
and
running,
and
then
you
may
have
an
automated
process
that
gets
developed
back
in
sync
with
master.
Well,
that's
generally
done
through
a
force
push,
and
while
it
should
be
an
exception
and
not
best
practice,
there
are
cases
when
that
is
warranted.
A
So
if
you
have
such
workflow,
what
we
want
to
do
is
add
the
ability
to
allow
force
push
for
those
that
are
in
the
allowed
push
list.
So
let's
say,
if
you
have
an
automated
bot
that
is
syncing
that
develop
into
the
with
the
master
branch
you
can
assign
the
bot
in
the
allowed
to
push
column
and
then
allow
the
force
boost
option
and
that's
going
to
allow
you
to
account
for
those
exceptions
without
having
to
unprotect
and
then
re-protect
so
we'll
work
to
get
that
over
the
line.
A
And
next
we're
also
going
to
work
on
improving
our
forking
workflows.
So
the
the
next
thing
that
we're
going
to
work
on
is
the
ability
to
cherry
pick
across
forks.
So
imagine
if
I'm
a
project
maintainer
for
my
project
and
somebody
has
a
fork
of
it
and
I
see
some
great
contributions
but
for
some
reason
we're
not
able
to
get
to
that
person
or
to
those
changes
back
into
my
parent
project.
I
want
to
be
able
to
pick
those
commits
from
the
fork
back
into
the
parent.
