What it means for you
Our viewThe changelog names the three levels and the default but, in this entry, does not say how they differ in depth or cost, so treat the levels as something to test.
If you own a Code Review setup, try Deep on one repository, compare it with Standard, and think before switching on the option that covers every repository in a GitHub organisation, since it also enrols ones added later.
On Pro and Max plans, read the new warning before resuming a long-idle conversation, because it appears when resuming would use a noticeable share of the 5-hour limit.
