Today we are releasing version 8.7.2 for GitLab Community Edition (CE) and
Enterprise Edition (EE).
It includes the following fixes:
- **EE:** Fix MR notifications for Slack and Hipchat when approvals are fulfilled
([!325])
- **EE:** Merge requests on a secondary node no longer check if a merge request
can be merged ([!366])
- **CE/EE:** The "New Branch" button displayed on issue pages is now loaded
asynchronously ([!3855])
- **CE/EE:** Creating wiki pages no longer results in an HTTP 500 error
([!3924])
- **CE/EE:** The spacing between notification labels and buttons has been
updated ([!3965])
## Upgrade barometer
This version does not include any new migrations, and should not require any
downtime.
Please be aware that by default the Omnibus packages will stop, run migrations,
and start again, no matter how “big†or “small†the upgrade is. This behavior
can be changed by adding a [`/etc/gitlab/skip-auto-migrations`
file](http://doc.gitlab.com/omnibus/update/README.html).
## Updating
To update, check out our [update page](/update).

EE](/features/#enterprise).
Access to GitLab Enterprise Edition is included with a [subscription](/pricing/).
No time to upgrade GitLab yourself? Subscribers receive upgrade and installation
services.
