The desktop app received several improvements to its Code Review feature.
In order to have stronger and safer Code Reviews, we added:
- Support for multiple reviewers in a code review.
You can add or remove reviewers (either specific users or entire user groups). Each reviewer has their own status. And the global status of the code review is calculated among all the reviewers. - Conversation panel showing the timeline, change requests, questions and status changes all in one place. You can navigate to the code and see the specific line where a comment was created, or see the changeset where a change request was applied.
- Improved code review list and filters.
The new code review list offers a more comfortable user experience, thanks to multiple reviewer support, status icons, user avatars, better filters, column adjustments and a closer UI parity with the web experience (https://cloud.unity.com)
