Pull Request Highlights
During the month of March 2019, we merged 591 pull requests across our repositories. We would like to extend a big thank you to all our contributors and would like to highlight two pull requests of note.
First, we merged a pull request from Eduard Chitoraga focusing on unifying how the EAV attribute code validation works. Thanks to this pull request, there is now a new class specifically for attribute code validation that is used in all places that attributes are saved.
Then, we merged a pull request from Vitaliy Boyko which updated the way product URL rewrites are created and deleted. This pull request updated the process so that now the product visibility is considered when dealing with the URL rewrites.
Thank you to both Eduard and Vitaliy for your hard work on these pull requests.
