Enterprise Server 3.15 release notes

Enterprise Server 3.15.0-rc.1

Release CandidateDownload GitHub Enterprise Server 3.15.0

November 12, 2024

Note

Release candidate (RC) builds are intended solely for use in a test environment. Do not install an RC in a production environment.

Do not upgrade to an RC from a supported, earlier version.

If your GitHub Enterprise Server instance is running an RC, you cannot upgrade to the general availability (GA) release. You also cannot upgrade with a hotpatch.

For upgrade instructions, see "Обзор процесса обновления."

3.15.0-rc.1: Features

  • Instance administration

  • Audit logs

  • Code scanning

    • Users can run CodeQL analysis of C# code without building the project, build-mode: none. When you enable code scanning using default setup on a repository, both Java and C# use this mode. Analysis of both languages using this method is generally available. See "About build mode None for CodeQL."

    • CodeQL analysis of Swift and Kotlin code is generally available.

    • This release comes installed with version 2.18.4 of the CodeQL CLI, used in the CodeQL action for code scanning. Significant updates since the default version installed on GitHub Enterprise Server 3.14 include:

      • Support for Go 1.23 and TypeScript 5.5
      • C# can now use build-mode: none, which allows scanning C# code without requiring working builds
      • Kotlin & Swift support for mobile applications is generally available
      • Java build-mode: none analyses only report a warning on the tool status page when significant analysis problems are detected
      • Two new JavaScript queries, js/functionality-from-untrusted-domain, have been added to detect usage of scripts from untrusted domains, including polyfill.io content delivery network and js/insecure-helmet-configuration to detect instances where important Helmet security features are disabled
      • The precision of cpp/iterator-to-expired-container & cpp/unsafe-strncat have been increased to high
  • Secret scanning

    • Secret scanning for discussions, issues, and pull request titles, bodies, and comments is now generally available. See "Сведения о проверке секретов."

    • Users can bypass push protection using the existing Create a blob and Create or update file contents REST API endpoints. This action can also be performed programmatically using the new Create a push protection bypass API endpoint. See the GitHub Blog post.

    • Organization owners can enable the detection of non-provider patterns for their organization using a security configuration. This feature is in public beta and is subject to change. See "Enabling detection of non-provider patterns for an organization."

  • Dependabot

    • Organization owners, security managers and users with admin access can manage Dependabot auto-triage rules, as well as create custom auto-triage rules. Auto-triage rules are a powerful tool that automatically dismiss Dependabot alerts matching certain criteria. This feature is generally available. See "Сведения о правилах автообработки Dependabot."

  • GitHub Connect

    • For enterprises with a deployment of GitHub Enterprise Cloud on GHE.com, automatic license sync is supported from GitHub Enterprise Server to GHE.com.

  • GitHub Advanced Security

  • Code security

    • Organization owners and security managers can simplify the rollout of GitHub security products at scale with security configurations. They can define collections of security settings, save them as a custom configuration, and apply them across groups of repositories. Security configurations can be enforced using policies to stop repositories making any changes to the enablement of security features. See "Сведения о включении функций безопасности в масштабе."

    • Organization owners and security managers can create, apply, enforce, and monitor security configurations programmatically using REST API calls and audit logs. See "Конфигурации" and security_configuration.

  • GitHub Actions

    • For self-hosted GitHub Actions runners on this GitHub Enterprise Server release, the minimum required version of the GitHub Actions Runner application is 2.319.1. See the release notes for this version in the actions/runner repository. If your instance uses ephemeral self-hosted runners and you've disabled automatic updates, you must upgrade your runners to this version of the Runner application before upgrading your instance to this GitHub Enterprise Server release.

  • GitHub Packages

    • Package managers benefit from improved performance as the npm registry no longer includes README content in package version metadata, reducing the size of package packuments (metadata manifest). This change enhances registry and npm CLI efficiency.

  • Repositories

    • Users can use new property types when creating a custom property: Multi select and True/False.

    • Users can gain deeper insights into contributors and code frequency with enhanced focus navigation, and a new table format for viewing and downloading data.

    • Users can require that merges must be performed with a merge queue at the repository level. For more information about merge queues, see "Слияние для запроса на вытягивание с очередью слияния."

    • Admins can enforce status checks and workflow runs on existing refs while allowing the creation of new refs.

    • Organization members can use the new repository view and advanced filters to find repositories by visibility, language, custom properties, size, license, and more.

  • Projects

    • Users can interact with project status updates programmatically using the ProjectV2StatusUpdate GraphQL object and the projects_v2_status_update webhook event. See GitHub Issues & Projects on the GitHub Blog.

    • For better accessibility, swimlanes and card titles have heading elements attached to them.

    • Project custom field changes are included directly in the project_v2_item webhook event when a project item's fields are edited, allowing users to understand how project fields change over time and how long they have a particular value.

  • Accessibility

    • Users can navigate and dismiss hovercards using keyboard shortcuts, enhancing accessibility. Additionally, a new setting allows users to disable all hovercards.

    • Math equations are rendered with standardized MathML, replacing custom HTML MathJax to enhance accessibility and security. While most users will see minimal changes, slight differences in font and alignment may occur.

    • The light and dark high contrast themes have been updated to improve readability.

  • Integrations and extensions

    • The client_id field is included in all API responses that describe a GitHub App. This is part of a shift to use the client ID as the primary identifier for an app. See Client IDs are now included in App API responses on the GitHub Blog.

    • When users go through the device code flow for an OAuth app, such as the GitHub CLI, they are prompted to use an account picker if they have multiple accounts.

3.15.0-rc.1: Changes

  • The API endpoint for listing custom deployment rule integrations for an environment (GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/environments/{environment_name}/deployment_protection_rules/apps) requires "Administration" repository permissions (read) for fine-grained tokens. Previously, the token required "Actions" repository permissions (read).

  • Pushes that update over 5,000 branches no longer trigger webhooks or GitHub Actions workflows.

  • Organization owners and security managers will see a new organization-level code security settings UI. In the organization settings sidebar, the Code security and analysis option has been replaced by an expanding Code security option. This contains new Configurations and Global settings options. See "Сведения о включении функций безопасности в масштабе."

3.15.0-rc.1: Known issues

  • Note: This list is not complete. Any new known issues that are identified for the 3.15 release will be added between now and the GA.

  • An organization-level code scanning configuration page is displayed on instances that do not use GitHub Advanced Security or code scanning.

  • When initializing a new GHES cluster, nodes with the consul-server role should be added to the cluster before adding additional nodes. Adding all nodes simultaneously creates a race condition between nomad server registration and nomad client registration.

  • Attempting to stop replications after stopping GitHub Actions on a GHES instance would fail, reporting that MSSQL was not responding. This can be avoided by starting MSSQL prior to stopping replication by running /usr/local/share/enterprise/ghe-nomad-jobs queue /etc/nomad-jobs/mssql/mssql.hcl.

  • Admins setting up cluster high availability (HA) may encounter a spokes error when running ghe-cluster-repl-status if a new organization and repositories are created before using the ghe-cluster-repl-bootstrap command. To avoid this issue, complete the cluster HA setup with ghe-cluster-repl-bootstrap before creating new organizations and repositories.

  • During the validation phase of a configuration run, a No such object error may occur for the Notebook and Viewscreen services. This error can be ignored as the services should still correctly start.

  • If the root site administrator is locked out of the Management Console after failed login attempts, the account does not unlock automatically after the defined lockout time. Someone with administrative SSH access to the instance must unlock the account using the administrative shell. See "Устранение неполадок с доступом к консоли управления."

  • On an instance with the HTTP X-Forwarded-For header configured for use behind a load balancer, all client IP addresses in the instance's audit log erroneously appear as 127.0.0.1.

  • In some situations, large .adoc files stored in a repository do not render properly in the web UI. The raw contents are still available to view as plaintext.

  • Repositories originally imported using ghe-migrator will not correctly track GitHub Advanced Security contributions.

  • Admin stats REST API endpoints may timeout on appliances with many users or repositories. Retrying the request until data is returned is advised.

  • When following the steps for Replacing the primary MySQL node, step 14 (running ghe-cluster-config-apply) might fail with errors. If this occurs, re-running ghe-cluster-config-apply is expected to succeed.

  • Running a config apply as part of the steps for Replacing a node in an emergency may fail with errors if the node being replaced is still reachable. If this occurs, shutdown the node and repeat the steps.

  • If a hotpatch upgrade requires the haproxy-frontend service to be restarted, the restart will hang if there are existing long-lived connections, such as browser web sockets or Git operations. No new connections will be accepted for up to 5 minutes. Any existing unfinished connections at this time will be disconnected.

  • When restoring data originally backed up from a 3.13 appliance onto a 3.13 appliance, the Elasticsearch indices need to be reindexed before some of the data will show up. This happens via a nightly scheduled job. It can also be forced by running /usr/local/share/enterprise/ghe-es-search-repair.

  • An organization-level code scanning configuration page is displayed on instances that do not use GitHub Advanced Security or code scanning.

  • In the header bar displayed to site administrators, some icons are not available.

  • When enabling automatic update checks for the first time in the Management Console, the status is not dynamically reflected until the "Updates" page is reloaded.

  • When restoring from a backup snapshot, a large number of mapper_parsing_exception errors may be displayed.

  • Services may respond with a 503 status due to an out of date haproxy configuration. This can usually be resolved with a ghe-config-apply run.

  • Customers doing feature version upgrade to 3.14.3 may experience issues with database migrations due to data issues during database conversions.

3.15.0-rc.1: Closing down

  • In GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16, the /explore functionality, including the Activity and Trending pages, will be removed.

3.15.0-rc.1: Retired

  • We are closing down the API endpoints and parameters that complemented the old organization-level code security settings UI experience. These have been replaced by a new API for security configurations. See "Конфигурации."

    • Retired: The GET response for security product status in an organization: Get an organization is deprecated. This attribute will return inaccurate information.
    • Retired: The PATCH functionality for security products to set a default status for new repos in an organization: Update an organization is deprecated. The PATCH operation may return an error or will not perform the PATCH or will be ignored.
    • Retired: The POST endpoint to enable or disable a security feature for all repositories in an organization: Enable or disable a security feature for an organization is deprecated. The POST will be ignored.
  • The Management Console API has been removed. The Manage GHES API reached feature parity with the Management Console API in GitHub Enterprise Server version 3.12. For information about the Manage GHES API, see "Конечные точки REST API для управления GitHub Enterprise Server."
