- doublerebel 14y agoExactly my point -- these 'new' Bitbucket features are a blatant clone of Github as well. I was expecting more from all the fanfare. For instance, users are clamoring to be able to link external issue trackers of their choice (which can be done simply by URL). I think the first host to supply that feature will have a step up.
- masklinn 14y ago> these 'new' Bitbucket features are a blatant clone of Github as well I think you misplaced the word "some". Inline pull-request comments are ripped off gh, but I've never seen arbitrary commit diffs there, it certainly isn't in the UI. The branch selector yes, the overview not at all. The UI organization has also, if anything, moved further away from Github's.
- doublerebel 14y agoArbitrary commit diffs have been in Github since March 2010 [1]. The Overview is exactly like what Redmine and GitLab call 'Activity' [2]. Github has Activity in a different manner, through notifications and the News Feed. These are useful features, but they are not innovative.
