Walkthrough

The documentation was updated to clarify terminology by replacing "Dashboard" with "CodeRabbit web interface," refining descriptions of repository and organizational settings, and expanding the explanation of the benefits of using a coderabbit.yaml file. Additional clarifications and minor typographical corrections were made to improve consistency and accuracy.

Changes

File(s)	Change Summary
docs/guides/setup-best-practices.md	Updated terminology from "Dashboard" to "CodeRabbit web interface," clarified repository and org settings, expanded benefits of coderabbit.yaml, standardized references, and fixed minor typos.

Poem

In the warren of docs, we tidy and mend,
"Dashboard" hops out, "web interface" we send.
With coderabbit.yaml, our history’s in view,
Settings clear as morning dew.
Typo bunnies chased away,
Now our guidance leads the way! 🐇✨

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Explain this complex logic.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai explain this code block.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and explain its main purpose.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Support

Need help? Create a ticket on our support page for assistance with any issues or questions.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

67-68: Clarity: explicit mention of both org and repo settings via UI
Great update—this clearly indicates that both the Organization Settings and Repositories pages in the CodeRabbit web interface support configuration at different scopes.

---

76-76: Skip: bullet is clear
The added bullet explaining version control advantages is clear and grammatically correct.

---

90-90: Skip: line break is acceptable
The line break before “to disregard…” is acceptable in markdown lists.
