Git Town 11 continues the effort to make the Git Town user experience more consistent and intuitive.

BREAKING CHANGES

• git new-pull-request is now git propose. Not all platforms that Git Town supports use the name "pull request", so Git Town uses the word "proposal" for pull requests, merge requests, etc from now on. Nine fewer characters to type! (#2691)
• git abort is merged into git undo. From now on you just run git undo after a Git Town command fails or finishes to get back to where you started (#2719).
• Many configuration options now have more intuitive names. No action needed on your end, Git Town automatically updates the affected settings on your machine. This means you can't go back to v10 after updating to v11.
  • code-hosting-driver is now code-hosting-platform (#2704)
  • main-branch-name is now main-branch (#2703)
  • perennial-branch-names is now perennial-branches (#2702)
  • sync-strategy is now sync-feature-strategy (#2697)
  • pull-branch-strategy is now sync-perennial-strategy (#2693)
• git ship by default no longer syncs the branch to ship. Set the sync-before-ship flag to restore the old behavior. This allows shipping only when the tests pass (#2735).
• Creating proposals on BitBucket uses an updated URL (#2692).
• git town config reset now also deletes the branch lineage. This helps get you out of more configuration snafus (#2733).

New Features

• The new sync-before-ship config option prevents git ship from updating the branch it is about to ship. The old behavior makes sense when shipping branches locally but is conflicting with the requirements for tests to pass on CI before shipping via the hosting platform (#2714).

Bug Fixes

• allow renaming local-only branches (#2710)
• git repo and git propose always open the browser page at the default port, even if the origin remote points to a custom port (#2730)
