Dependency review now supports filtering and commit diffs

Dependency review, in beta, helps you review dependency changes in your pull requests. But how do you find your package manifests amongst all the other files? Now you can filter the files in pull requests to see just the package manifests:

What if you don’t have a pull request at all? Now you can review dependency changes between any two commits, such as:

  • During the creation of a pull request,
  • When comparing two branches, tags, or specific commits, and
  • When viewing the history of a package manifest.
