  1. In the main Plastic GUI, display a notification if the installed version is older than the latest build available for download. Check periodically while GUI is running. For us early adopters... ;)

  2. If one has setup a plastic Web UI, it would be nice if there was a way inside the Plastic GUI to open the corresponding webpage for a branch, changeset etc.

    The base URL could be configured in Preferences and the associated context commands could be hidden if no URL is entered (or if the functionality is disabled).

  3. In the "Branch Changes" window ("View - Explore changesets on this branch"), the list of changesets is displayed in chronologically increasing order with the oldest one on top.

    IMHO, it would be more consistent with the similar "View - View changesets on this branch" if the ordering was inverted so that the latest changeset was displayed on top and pre-selected. I'd think it is more common to start at the current version and work backwards through the history, as in most other views inside Plastic.

    At the very least there should be a (remembered) option to invert the ordering. Personally…

  4. During a lengthy operation (Update/Switch), I would like to be able to continue working on another of my workspace tabs. As it is, the Update/Switch dialog is modal and I have to wait for the operation to finish before I can switch tabs.

  5. This would be a shortcut to browsing the selected repo on its /main branch, instead of having to do:

    "View branches" - Select /main - right click - "View - Browse repository on this branch".

    Thanks for the suggestion, but this time we can’t really accept it.

    I mean, if we select “main”, then next user will ask “make it configurable”, or “why main”, so we’ll have to add another option, going into the “feature creep mode” all software books advice you against :’-(

    We don’t discard reopening this in the near future once we complete the re-implementation of the Windows GUI based on the simplified Mac and Linux counterparts.

  6. Our company uses MATLAB/Simulink to generate model based C code. We need to tie this in somehow to Plastic. Matlab/Simulink can use subversion. Can something be developed in Plastic to tie in to this?

    You can already edit the default. In Linux and Mac it is doable through the GUI. On Windows, just edit client.conf. I think the default is good for 99% of the people. For the rest 1% probably editing client.conf is reasonable.

  9. When selecting a changeset, I'd like to have a preview area where the changeset's details are shown (at least which files have been changed). Currently, I have to double click a specific changeset in order to see the details.
    Think of an email client like Outlook, where you can read the mail by selecting it in your list of mails without opening the mail in an extra window.

  10. When deleting private files from within the Plastic SCM GUI, the files are deleted from disk permanently.
    The client should delete them using windows dustbin feature. Configurable behavior would be even better.

  11. Or - if possible - for all versions later than VS2010. It is a great product that has received too little attention.

  12. When uninstalling/upgrading Plastic, it seems it sometimes silently fails to remove the Visual Studio plugin. This leads to an error message during installation, saying that the vsixinstaller.exe command line finished with an error. In fact, this error you get from vsixinstaller can be simply that the plugin is already installed in all clients (which you can discover by running the same command line interactively from cmd). It would be nice if this "non-fatal" error is detected and reported as such, instead of reporting a generic error message...

  13. Please add a Hotkey/Shortcut to the Checkin button on the pending changes view.

    I'd like to use a shortcut for checkin after typing the comment

  15. When you use the "Show Version Tree" command in IntelliJ on the Mac, you will get some weird error message about missing an xmodmap command. See also attached file. It would be nice if this command actually worked.

  16. How to reproduce:

    Take 1:
    1. Setup replication between 2 repo(A and B) and synchronize.
    2. Change the comment of one changeset in A.

    Expected behavior:
    * A and B should be considered different for now and allow user to synchronize them through replication again.

    Current behavior:
    * The replication view shows A and B is identical and nothing to synchronize.

    Take 2:
    * Manually push/pull between A and B

    Expected behavior:
    * The comment in B should be updated.

    Current behavior:
    * The comment in B still remains the old one.

    While I understand it is not the most intuitive behavior, it works the way we expect it to do.

    Let me explain: only new changesets are replicated, so whatever you changed on an older changeset that doesn’t need to be replicated, will be ignored. This is like this due to performance issues, otherwise every single replica would require to walk back all the changesets.

  17. Would be great to see repository changes in inbox. Integration should be relatively easy to do as Flowdock has really easy API.

  18. It would be very useful if there was a way to automatically save comments entered into the Pending Changes/Comments text box such that if you reopened the Pending Changes window the previously entered comments were not lost. I believe most other SC clients do this (TortoiseHg/Svn/SourceTree).

  20. Since Plastic SCM does not differentiate internally between top-level branches and child branches, it should also make this clear to the user within the User Interface.

    So, instead of having two seperate menu points of "Create child branch ..." and "Create top-level branch ...", merge them together under one clear menu entry "Create new branch ... Ctrl+N"

    Then, in the branch creation dialog, let the user decide, what kind of branch he wants to create.
    And the default Changeset for the new branch should ever be the changeset, where I'm currently at.

    Short summary:
    The branches are for me like…
