, says that customers have been asking for this feature for some time, and the company has worked on this project for the past six months.GitHub Package Registry management supports tools in multiple language — notably NPM for JavaScript tools, Maven for Java, RubyGems for Ruby, NuGet for .Net, and Docker images. GitHub is working on adding support for more languages, and expects additions to arrive throughout the year.

We're looking forward to seeing developers use this and see how it evolves," Clark said.This is a subscriber-only story. To read the full article,
