What's new (FREE)

With each monthly release, GitLab includes some of the highlights from the last 10 GitLab versions in the What's new feature. To access it:

  1. In the top navigation bar, select the {question} icon.
  2. Select What's new from the menu.

The What's new describes new features available in multiple GitLab tiers. While all users can see the feature list, the feature list is tailored to your subscription type:

  • Features only available to self-managed installations are not shown on GitLab.com.
  • Features only available on GitLab.com are not shown to self-managed installations.

Self-managed installations

Due to our release post process, the content for What's new is not finalized when a new version (.0 release) is cut. The updated What's new is included in the first patch release, such as 13.10.1.
