Note: GitBucket 4.7.1 is now available. This is hotfix for a bug that group repositories are not shown in the user repositories list on the sidebar of the dashboard. And includes small performance improvement of the dashboard.

Today, we are pleased to announce the availability of new version of Scala based Git platform GitBucket 4.7!

New permission system

The most impact feature is the new permission system.

We can now give guest, developer or administration role to users and groups for each repositories. Also we can add collaborators more flexibly. For example, we can add individual users or other groups to the group repository as the collaborator. And it’s also possible to add groups to the personal repository as the collaborator.

In addition, we can also configure which role of users to allow creating or updating issues or wiki pages.

Dropdown filter for issue labels, milestones and assignees

The filter box is now available in dropdown selection lists such as issue labels, milestones and assignees. You can filter these lists incrementaly.

Keep sidebar folding status

Sidebar can be folded by clicking the hamburger button on the header. Since GitBucket 4.7, folding status has been kept during a session.

Link from milestone label to the issue list

The milestone label at the issue links to the list of issues which are scheduled in that milestone.

In addition, this release contains some improvements and bug fix. See all closed issues in this release to know details.

Enjoy GitBucket!
