GitHub Enterprise now includes Projects, code review, and profile timelines

GitHub today is announcing the release of GitHub Enterprise 2.8. It comes with some of the features that came to GitHub.com in September.

Perhaps most importantly, now GitHub’s Projects tool is available through the Enterprise version of GitHub, which can be deployed in companies’ on-premises data centers or on top of public clouds like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. Projects is a spin on the kanban board that Trello has popularized. GitHub competitor GitLab recently introduced something similar called Issue Boards.

Since the introduction of GitHub Projects, people have started more than 100,000 of them, a GitHub spokesperson told VentureBeat in an email.

GitHub Enterprise 2.8 also comes with the ability to do code reviews on incoming pull requests. GitHub.com users have approved more than 1.5 million pull requests with code reviews since it launched, the spokesperson wrote.

Users’ profiles also look different, because now there’s a timeline that shows significant activity.

But that’s not all. GitHub is also adding support for Jupyter notebooks in its Enterprise version — something that arrived on GitHub.com in 2015.

“Producing and sharing insights from data on GitHub is a common challenge for researchers and data scientists,” GitHub wrote in a blog post. “Jupyter notebooks make it easy to capture those data-driven workflows that combine code, equations, text, and visualizations. And now they render in all your GitHub repositories.”

GitHub Enterprise costs $2,500 per 10 users per year.
