0.70.0

Changes

• The "Create" view has been updated to be less noisy and more useful. Aside from the purely visual changes, the following features have been added:

  • We try to guess the best possible base branch for your PR instead of always using the default branch.
  • You can add reviewers, assignees, labels, and milestones to your PR from the "Create" view.
  • By default, your last "create option" will be remembered (ex. draft or auto merge)
  • The view is much faster.
  • You can view diffs before publishing your branch.
  • Once the branch is published, you can also view commits (this is coming soon for unpublished branches).

  

• If you work on a fork of a repository, but don't ever want to know about or make PRs to the parent, you can prevent the upstream remote from being added with the new setting "githubPullRequests.upstreamRemote": "never".

Fixes

• Quote reply missing for some comments. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-pull-request-github/issues/5012
• Accessibility of "suggest edits" new workflow and documentation. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-pull-request-github/issues/4946
