Visual Studio 2022 v17.11 includes fantastic updates to everyone working with Git. They bring the richness of both GitHub and Azure DevOps into Visual Studio and part of your natural workflow. This greatly simplifies your inner loop, making you even more productive than before. Download this update and see the release notes for all the details.
More meaningful code reviews
We’ve made it easier to view your GitHub and Azure DevOps pull request comments directly in your working file in Visual Studio. You can now stay in your context, make necessary code changes, and interact with your colleagues’ suggestions without switching contexts to the browser.
Fix for CodeLens timeline
CodeLens timeline now respects the configuration of your timeline to show the correct information. This fix addresses an issue where the timeline was not honoring the months set in the file changes hover preview.
Updates to pull request creation
We’ve improved on the create a pull request experience with target branch selection, commit counts, and other stabilization fixes. Additionally, we now automatically create links to work items that have been mentioned in commits that are part of the pull request. We also draft pull requests which was one of the top requests.
We hope you enjoy this update to Visual Studio, and we look forward to hearing what you think. You can share feedback with us via Developer Community, by reporting issues via report a problem and share your suggestions for new features or improvements to existing ones.
