Remember poke from our last newsletter? Well guess what:

We shipped it.

Sometimes you need to give someone an extra little nudge to get a code review going, and that's exactly what poke is for. When you poke a reviewer, they'll get a Slack notification saying who poked them and a link to the pull request they were poked on. Don't worry, we're protecting y'all against the trolls (no spam pokes).

And finally, as a tribute to Facebook's old days, you can poke reviewers back - just click the poke back button in Slack.

To get started with poke, enable real-time Slack notifications from the Graphite notifications settings page.


👩‍💻 Chrome extension updates
We made a few updates to our chrome extension - it will add a button to the GitHub PR page that redirects to the equivalent Graphite PR page instead of executing a hard redirect. Install it here.

🧵 Threaded comment reply improvements
We wanted to make it easier to reply to comments in a thread without starting a new review - now you can immediately post responses to comments in threads without having to click 'submit review'.

  • Comment recovery: Graphite now stores comments locally as they are being written. That way, if something happens (app crashes, browser refreshes), we will recover the in-progress comment when you return to the page.

  • Better PR page loading signals: Loading bar that shows progress in fetching the pull request page

  • Updates to PR filtering: Our new filtering improvements should result in less missing PRs - if you've never updated your sections, we've migrated them to the new filters. If you have, reach out to us on Slack and we can migrate them for you.


Graphite
Git stacked on GitHub

Stacked pull requests are easier to read, easier to write, and easier to manage.
Teams that stack ship better software, faster.

Or install our CLI.
