So, you want to plan a product release? Well, let’s be honest, no one really wants to plan a product release; it’s a complex and exhausting process that requires the buy-in of various people across your organization.

We’ve always been focused on creating tools that make development teams more productive. In 2014, we introduced GitKraken, the legendary cross-platform Git GUI: an intuitive tool to visualize what’s going on under the hood of Git in a way that makes version control less intimidating for individual developers and more scalable for organizations. Next came Glo Boards, a Kanban tool for project managers and developers.

Project management and issue tracking are foundational to a successful development team. Furthermore, task tracking tools that enable automation help maximize productivity, organization, and collaboration. We called in some help from Hogwarts on this release to introduce some truly magical features to GitKraken Boards. We bring you: Column Automation.
