We worked with maintainers, including @tianzhouchen, to build a better way to track GitHub stars over time. The new API returns daily star counts without exposing who starred a project, making star history easier to retrieve, cheaper to serve, and more private. Here's how we built it: github.blog/engineering/arch…

From 2,500 requests to 24: Rebuilding star history without the stargazers

Our new repo star history API now provides trends without returning individual identities or requiring unbounded database work.

As low-quality contributions increase across open source repositories, more contributors should have the tools to help manage repos. Users with triage, write, maintain, or admin access can now archive PRs.

Users with triage role or higher can now archive and unarchive pull requests. • Archiving closes PRs, makes them read-only, and hides them from public view • Unarchiving restores commenting but does not reopen the PR github.blog/changelog/2026-1…

Approvals are now retained for Stacked PRs after stack rebases ✅ Whether you use the "Rebase stack" button or partially merge a stack, as long as the diff doesn't change, PR approvals will be kept even if you have "dismiss stale approvals" turned on

After introducing PR limits, we heard from maintainers dealing with a flood of draft PRs. You can now turn on “Count draft pull requests toward the limit” to include drafts in your repository’s limit. What other controls would help you manage contributions?

The busiest single repo on GitHub saw roughly a billion requests in ONE MONTH. Today, we shared how we’re rebuilding GitHub’s storage layer (without changing how you use GitHub) decoupling compute & storage so reads and writes scale independently. Quicker pushes, pulls, and a platform that stays fast as more agents and developers code. We’re designing against some of the largest workloads on the platform so there’s headroom for everyone. More below on how this works and excited to show you more at @GitHub Universe. 👇

Git activity more than doubled between September 2025 and August 2026, reaching 473.3B events per month. We’re rebuilding our Git infrastructure while GitHub keeps running, creating a foundation for agent-scale software development.

what do PMs want to see on GitHub?
Kaitlin Vignali
@kvignali_githubOct 6
PMs: your engineers live in GitHub. What would it take for you to move in too? Better docs? Less issue wrangling? Something to exist pre-ticket? What would make it feel "native" for you, too?

1/4 Yesterday, I said SWC would stop accepting external PRs. A comment from a GitHub employee on that announcement made me reconsider. I'm now exploring reopening PRs to a trusted group of contributors.
SWC@swc_rsOct 1
Due to AI-generated pull requests, we’re no longer accepting external PRs. We’re sorry for the change and appreciate your understanding.
