  1. If i have items or xlinks specified in cloaked.conf, the only way to force an update of these is to:

    • either removed them from cloaked.conf before "Update workspace"

    • or run "cm update --cloaked <path>" from the command line.

    NOTE: Contrary to old documentation, running the "cm update --forced <path>" command will not update cloaked stuff.

    I suggest adding a "Update Cloaked" command to the context menu in the Items view. Maybe also an "Update Forced" command, but this is probably less important.

  2. Currently Plastic allows Code Review Per Branch. Problem is it shows differences between the original node from which the feature branch was created (in dev) and the head node of the feature branch.
    However, this is a problem: when you update your feature branch merging updates other devs have merged in dev branch.
    Why? Because all their changes also appear in the code review. So at this point is not possible to do a reasonable code review of the code in the feature branch.
    The solution: Take the same approach that BitBucket takes. The code review should show only differences…

  3. When I choose "Mount this changeset in Plastic Drive", I get a long and confusing text message because I do not yet have dokan.dll installed. The text message contains a long URL with the download location.

    Even if you are not going to make the installation process automatic, you could still reduce friction by making the download URL clickable. This makes the URL stand out from the rest of the text, and makes 'the right choice' easier.

  4. Have plastic simply use the .gitignore file if it is present. Now that we support the online git repos like github bitbucket and VSO.

    If you have .gitignore use that methodology and if you have .ignore use that methodology.

    And maybe give user option to generate a .ignore file from a .gitignore.

  5. Add a description property to a repository and add it as a column to the repository browser to allow for a long description to give detailed information about the contents of the repo. Repo names tend to be short and don't always explain what the repo contains, especially when there are 100's of repo's for different projects.

  6. In the absence of a "Sync All View" in Sync Replication View, have a visual marker to indicate out of data repos so it can be determined at a glance which repos are out of sync and require syncing. Probably a different colour for repos with incoming changes and a different colour for outgoing changes, and something to indicate there are both incoming and outgoing.

  7. Problem:
    Sometimes you checkin changes that aren't necessarily corelated. Well, yes they belong to the same fix, but you could easily revert one change without the other.
    When people don't have the habbit to checkin every now and then, they need to checkin when they're done. Most of the time, this checkin contains more than one change.

    In the unexpected event of a new bug, that was checkedin with these changes, it's hard to revert that one change that's causing the issue.

    Suggested solution:
    This problem could be solved if there was a way to split existing changesets into new…

  8. Some languages, like Visual Basic 6, are case insensitive. An option to ignore case sensitivity would remove some of the false positives the Diff Viewer reports because of case differences.

  10. If you launch the Plastic installer when an application is running which needs to be closed, you are presented with a list of the applications which need to be closed, and three buttons:
    Refresh List - Continue - Cancel
    ... where Continue is grayed out ...

    In order to proceed from that point onward, the user needs to first close the applications, then click on Refresh List, then click on Continue.

    You could simplify this by combining the "Refresh List" and "Continue" operations into a single "Refresh" operation:

    Remove the "Refresh List" button. Replace the "Continue" button with a "Refresh"…

  11. The code review system is very basic but I believe a few simple things can make it much more usable. I submit a list of them here: http://www.plasticscm.net/index.php?/topic/2276-suggestions-for-code-review-system

  12. Fist of all, thank you for this great tool!

    When I browse through the Commit History and select a .cs file, then select Semantic diff, and then switch the commit, then depending on the file type that is selected gmaster falls back to Text diff. This is correct behavior I guess, but when I switch to the next commit and it is a .cs file again I would have expected that I get the Semantic diff again, but instead I am in text diff mode and have to switch manually.

  14. "Xlink changes cannot be commented" - that message shows up when you try to comment a change in an xlinked file (in a code review). IMHO it would be much easier if xlinked files could be commented just like other files.

  16. In a DevOps environment developers want to have automated tests run on each checkin.
    To trigger the test runs we can use after-checkin triggers, that's great!
    Developers will then get feedback on the changes they made.
    This is via mail right now.
    But the test results will be needed by other developers, too.
    So the results should be placed inside plastic scm connected to the changeset.
    This is a additional (optional) request: It would be nice if it was possible to add test reports in HTML format to each changeset and to be able to view them inside plastic scm.

  17. You should add a way to shelve a already checked-in changeset. This way a checkin on the wrong branch could be shelved, deleted and then applied to the correct branch.

  19. (see http://www.plasticscm.net/index.php?/topic/2883-pending-changes-does-not-ignore-eols/)

    I would like an option to allow the Pending Changes view to ignore EOLs.

    Ideally this would happen automatically, so that if the option were enabled differences which are simply down to EOLs are not treated as pending changes.

    Another idea
