How Atlassian is redefining business collaboration (and fine art auctions)

Last week, Fortune wrote an article about our business model, our vision, and how we’re approaching business collaboration. Our DNA is in helping software teams build great products and making it easier to work together across teams. Lately, we’ve been focusing on expanding our product offerings to non-software teams, and applying these principles for all teams, including non-technical ones. Jira Service Desk, our newest offering and Atlassian’s fastest growing product to date, is a simple yet powerful service desk that helps not just IT, but all teams deliver help to their employees in a responsive and efficient way.

Hall joins Atlassian

We’re excited to announce that Atlassian has acquired Hall – a group chat service for business teams.

We both believe that real-time, group chat transforms the way teams collaborate, builds stronger culture, and helps teams get work done faster. Hall has spent the last four years building a product that helps teams do exactly that – right down the road from our San Francisco office. As we watched Hall grow, we grew convinced that we should tackle this mission together.

‘–force considered harmful; understanding git’s –force-with-lease

Git’s push –force is destructive because it unconditionally overwrites the remote repository with whatever you have locally, possibly overwriting any changes that a team member has pushed in the meantime.
