New features look awesome. Any idea of when we'll get global search? For a long time I've been wanting to search for a particular code snippet or file name across all projects.

  Thanks! Isn't that global search possible with Elastic Search http://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/elasticsearch.html http://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/elasticsearch.html (EE only)?

    Oh, possibly. I don't actually use EE, but I just assumed it was still unimplemented because the issue is still open: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/556 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/556 Edit: looks like they updated this issue since I last checked and the feature is scheduled for `8.12`

      You're right that we're still working on global search. Thanks for the correction and the link to the issue.

The issue boards are a big deal, so congrats on getting that out! I've said this before, but one huge thing you guys could do that would draw in a lot of companies to Gitlab EE is if you supported custom issue fields [1][2] with various field types. That feels like a pretty logical place to go from here, so I hope you guys are strongly considering it.

  Agreed, custom fields is where the pinch point is for most companies I contract at.

  Thanks! Let's continue the conversation about custom issues in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/8988#note_14175765 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/8988#note_141...

Since using Asana, one feature I want in every project management / issue management tool is the @mention [0]. Asana's @mention allows you to link other tasks or issues very conveniently. Just like HipChat's commands feature mentioned in your release notes, Asana's @mention feature is extremely convenient.

  In GitLab you can use @ to mention people, # to mention issues, and ! to mention merge requests.
  - sinatra 10y ago
    Great! Thank you for letting me know. Any chance of supporting something like that for the wiki pages too? So that we can refer to other pages or headers in those pages using @ or # mentions?
    - sytse 10y ago
      We have no plans but feel free to make a feature proposal.

    Can I mention comments on issues or review?

      If you copy-paste the URL for a specific comment into a new comment it will show as `#123 (comment 234)` and link to that comment. There is no special reference syntax to link to a specific comment, because it's much more likely that you have the URL to a comment on hand, than just its ID :)

We're super proud of this release. As always, we're here for any questions or comments.
