Secret scanning: Dry runs for custom patterns on edits

GitHub Advanced Security customers can now perform dry runs of their custom patterns when editing a pattern. Dry runs allow admins to understand a pattern’s impact across an organization and to hone the pattern before publishing and generating alerts.

Admins can compose a new pattern or edit a published pattern then ‘Save and dry run’ to retrieve results from their selected repositories. Scan results will appear on screen as they’re detected, but admins can leave the page and later come back to their saved pattern’s dry run results.
