Release Date

New Features

• Git: allow overriding default master branch with an env variable.
• VCS settings: when setting landing ref from UI switch default GIT branch too. This allows having non-default branches set as default.

General

• Commits/summary: unify fetching remote attribute in summary and commits page to properly and in the same way show the data.
• Caches: updated logging and some timings
• Caches: allow regional per repo caches, and invalidate caches via a remote call.
• Caches: invalidate cache on remote side from repo settings alongside local cache.

• Sys-info: added helpers for faster loading of sys-info data

Security

• Healthcheck: Added authentication because we expose DB information
