Boards
Maintain backlog hierarchy when filters are applied
As a user, I want to maintain my tree view even when I filter my backlog so that I don't lose context of the work I'm trying to organize.

Save Comment Improvements
In my project, there are some users who only need to contribute to discussions. They should not update any other fields.
As a user, when I save a discussion, the entire work item (and run work item rules) should not be saved.
Pipelines
Credential-free pipelines
Pipelines often depend on service connections that store secrets. A common use case for Pipelines is to deploy applications to Azure resources using an ARM service connection. Each connection stores either the Azure service principal's password or certificate in Azure DevOps. The main drawbacks of storing these credentials in Azure DevOps are (a) You will have to update the service connections in Azure DevOps every time you update them in Azure (b) Tasks in a pipeline will have access to these secrets. Many customers would like to avoid storing secrets in Azure DevOps. They do not want the trouble of rotating these secrets on a regular basis. And, they want to reduce the risk of these secrets getting exposed.
One way to do this is by using managed identity in ARM service connections. However, this approach only works with self-hosted agents or scale-set agents. As part of this work, we will explore how to make managed identity work with Microsoft-hosted agents. The goal of the resulting scheme is to promote credential-free pipelines that are simply based on managed identity, whose resource access can be managed within AAD.
The solution proposed as part of this work will be specific to Azure service connections and will not work for other types of service connections.
Deprecate Node 10 from agent and tasks
The Azure Pipelines agent and a number of its tasks use either Node 6 or Node 10 as the runtime. Given the end of life for Node 10, we need to move to a newer version of Node. This is also required for us to support the next version of macOS. There is one important consequence of moving to a newer version of Node. The agent will no longer work on RHEL 6. Stay tuned for more updates here and in our release notes.
