Hi
I'm
James
Ramsay
group
product
manager
here
at
get
lad,
and
this
is
the
source
code
group
1210
kickoff
call
I've
got
quite
a
few
items,
I'd
like
to
share
with
you
that
we're
planning
to
work
on
over
the
next
release
and
some
really
wonderful
improvements
to
merge,
requests
and
yeah.
Without
further
ado.
Let
me
jump
in
so.
The
first
item
is
to
do
with
the
gifts
that
are
displayed
in
merge
requests.
A
So
we're
really
keen
to
get
commenting
turned
on
so
that
we
can
really
get
this
new
diff
mode
in
front
of
customers
and
they
can
tell
us
what
they
think
the
next
improvements
relate
to
code
intelligence.
So,
two
releases
ago
we
worked
on
added
building
a
proof-of-concept
of
native
code
intelligence
inside
of
get
lab,
and
let
me
show
you
what
it
looks
like
you
can
see
this
on
gate
lab
comm.
A
For
a
couple
of
commits
here
and
there,
where
we
have
started
testing
it
and
when
it's
available
you
just
open
the
repository
browser
and
it'll
start
showing
code
intelligence
data,
and
this
is
really
really
useful.
You
can
jump
to
definition
and
it'll
pop
you
over
to
the
correct
line
and
they're
still
early
days.
That
probably
should
have
just
reloaded
now
jump
to
a
different
section
on
the
file
without
loading
the
page.
So
you
can
see
this
is
still
early
days.
A
But
what
we're
really
keen
to
do
is
get
this
code
intelligence
into
the
birds
request,
because
really,
when
you're
reviewing
code,
that
someone
else
is
written
having
code
intelligence
is
really
valuable.
Because
then
you
can
quickly
understand
how
everything's
linked
together
and
when
you're
reviewing
someone
else's
code.
You
won't
necessarily
have
the
same
familiarity
with
the
work
they've
done
and
how
it'll
looks
together.
So
we
think
it's
actually
much
more
valuable
to
have
this
feature
in
the
merge
request
interface
than
in
the
repository
browser.
A
But
the
repository
browser
was
an
easier
place
to
start
with
the
POC,
so
we're
continuing
to
expand
the
work
we've
done
here,
but
this
still
is
I
guess
a
proof
concept,
even
though
we're
expanding
the
interface
support
more
broadly
to
get
lab.
There
are
some
challenges
with
making
this
work
by
default
for
every
project,
on
your
lab
on
Gilad,
calm
and
self
hosted,
and
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we're
continuing
to
look
at,
which
is
working
out
our
data
storage
model.
A
Eagles
been
doing
some
great
work
digging
into
this,
but
essentially
the
progress
we've
made
so
far
is
to
work
out
that
we
could
end
up
with
a
table
in
Postgres
database.
That's
10,
terabytes,
full
of
code
intelligence
and
so
we're
not
sure
if
that's
the
best
idea
or
if
there's
other
ways
of
storing
this
data
and
presenting
it
to
users
that
won't
be
such
a
headache
for
database
maintenance
and
our
self
hosted
customers
that
might
end
up
with
massive
databases.
So
that's
really
the
major
hurdle.
That's
preventing
us
from
sharing
this.
A
More
broadly
and
making
this
feature
work
for
everyone,
and
how
can
we
store
this
much
data
and
make
it
queryable
and
just
showing
the
interface?
So
that's
exciting
progress
on
code
intelligence
and
we
look
forward
to
a
release
sometime
very
soon,
where
we'll
be
able
to
enable
that
by
default
for
everyone,
the
other
feature
which
I
am
excited
about
I
know.
Lots
of
other
people
are
excited
about.
There's
a
multi-line
comments,
but
this
is
the
first
minimal
viable
change
to
start
building
multi-line
comments.
A
A
How
can
we
consider
accessibility
depending
on
Mouse,
drag
operations
versus
keyboard
and
how
we
can
make
it
work
well
for
everyone,
but
in
the
meantime,
we
want
to
start
building
the
first
minimal
iteration
that
we
can
learn
from
and
the
first
version
that
we
think
we
can
ship
and
in
12.10
is
a
very
basic
version
where
you
click
on
a
line,
and
then
you
expand
the
range
upwards
by
typing.
An
integer
in
the
Box.
