Bitbucket users

Not all of the above improvements apply to S/Notify for Bitbucket 1.1.0, because it currently doesn’t support all of the features that S/Notify for Jira and Confluence offer. Please make sure to let us know if you want to use S/Notify for Bitbucket, and there’s anything hat you miss!

Fixes

We’ve also fixed smaller internal issues that we’ve stumbled upon. These are the ones you might be noticing:

  • Jira: PGP encryption failure adds proper error indicator symbol to incoming emails

  • Jira: PGP signature check always finds matching user key
