| **GHES repositories as a Whitebox scan source**: On-prem users can now select a GitHub Enterprise Server repository as the source for a Whitebox scan. Previously only repos from other connected providers were available in the scan wizard. | ||

|
||
| **Glob patterns in author filters**: The `include.authors` and `exclude.authors` fields in `.hacktron/config.yaml` (and the equivalent org-wide settings) now accept glob patterns (`*`, `**`, `?`, ``) in addition to exact login names, using the same dialect already supported for branch and path filters. |

Restore the omitted brace-glob example
Readers using this changelog to learn the supported author-filter syntax see an empty inline-code span after ?, so the supported {a,b} alternation form is omitted. Restore and properly escape that example so MDX renders the braces literally.

Avoid announcing author-glob support twice
The August 3 update already states at line 48 that author include/exclude filters accept the same glob dialect, so this August 19 bullet presents an already-announced capability as newly available for a second time. Remove the duplicate or clarify the additional behavior that actually shipped on August 19 so the release chronology remains accurate.

Documentation TODOs
These shipped features still need docs. The changelog links only to pages that already exist - add or update these, then link them:
/platform/repositories/azure-devopspage covers repo setup but not the personal account linking step.include.authors/exclude.authorsin.hacktron/config.yamland org-wide settings, with examples of*,**,?, and{a,b}patterns and the same safety limits that apply to branch/path globs.
