| Description | A pull request review created through the API as a draft (`event` set to `PENDING` or left empty) was added to the pull request timeline and announced through notifications and activity feeds like a submitted review. Its body and line comments were therefore visible to everyone who can read the pull request, including anonymous visitors of a public repository, before the reviewer submitted it. Pending reviews no longer get a timeline entry or notifications until they are submitted. |
