  1. The graphical branch view is fantastic, that said sometimes its helpful to see a list of all branches and the folders they are under. This is especially useful when using the gitflow model.

    Introducing a view that shows a list of all branches and the folders they reside under would be very helpful.

    Keep up the great work!

  2. Allow modifying the PLASTIC_COMMENT environment variable from within before-checkin trigger process.

    My particular scenario is to enable VCS Commit Comments integration in Teamcity with Youtrack. using branch-per-task, the branch name can be used to extract ticket ID..

    for example .. for branch /main/yt_ADMINPORTAL-232 the ticket id is ADMINPORTAL-232... with this change, I'd create before-checkin trigger to modify the checkin comment by appending a line at the end:

    my comments here...

    ADMINPORTAL-232

  3. Applying resolution to structural conflicts in the merge panel prior to "Process all merges" takes a long time, in the region of 10s per element. I don't see any technical reason for this to be so damn slow - please see if you can fix that. Often you have to redo a merge after something went wrong and every time you need to wait like forever in that step.

  4. I'd like the ability to delete branches. If the changes have been merged into another branches, keep them. Otherwise produce a STRONG warning that changes will be lost forever.

    Use cases:

    (1) Lots of branches on the server. When I sync some locally, I'd like to clean them up to remain organized.

    (2) Abandoned branches and code that we no longer want. We'd like to prune them to keep our repo organized and focused.

    I fully understand that "deleting branches is not recommended".. however, that is a recommendation, not a rule. I should be able to accept the responsibility of…

    You can delete branches, if you delete all changesets inside it first.
    Since destroying history is very dangerous, we think it must be a really special operation. We checked with many customers and actually deleting info this way is dangerous. If you delete all csets first, the it is clear you are doing exactly what you want.

  5. i am very annoyed by the new "hint" system. it keeps coming up and has no option to remove permanently. STOP THIS!

  6. Right now I have to set up the changeset colors again for each team member on every computer that I work on. Some of my team members don't know about the feature at all and don't dare touch the options.

    I'd like to be able to store the colors in a .conf file for each project, so they're set up once and for all.

  7. An error popup randomly opens when I check in, explore branches or whatever.
    If I click 'ok' button then same error popup opens again.
    The only way I can fix this is kill the process.
    I'm very frustrating with this bug. Please fix.

  8. Make the initial date display option, in the BrEx, optional, like the end date. When the initial date is not enabled, then the initial date would be the creation date of cset:0 or the earliest cset.

    We tried to add the icon, but our current menu implementation is not ready to do it on Windows.

    So the effort to add this feature doesn’t really make sense.

    A future GUI using WPF (if we ever go to WPF fully) will get this solved.

  12. Preparation:
    Create a new branch based on a specific changeset of an existing branch.
    Lets assume the new branch is called 'test', the existing branch is called 'parent' and the changeset on branch 'parent' is 1234.

    There currently is no cm command to find that changeset number (1234) when the branch 'test' itself has no changesets.

    cm find changesets where branch='test' will have 0 total changesets

    cm find changesets where branch='parent' will have all changesets of parent, but you don't know which is the base line for branch 'test'

  13. Sometimes when I want to double click a changeset on branch /main I miss it and instead hit the branch itself. What then happens is: plastic isn't useable for 10 minutes because main has A LOT of changes.
    It would be nice if there was a "savfty" question when branches with a lot of changesets are diffed.

    Never got an answer. It can be slow depending on the actual disk IO performance. Slow ones go slow… true for any other SCM too :P

  16. This would make keeping the SQL databases clean a lot easier. Right now, you have to use another tool (SSMS) to remove the repository databases after you've finished with them.

    I think this one is extremely risky. Deleting the DB should be a task for the dba.

  17. When revision controlled files is deleted from disk and refresh is done on pending changes it is updated very slow. It can take minutes.

    The workaround is to go to Items. Marked the deleted files from the list and select "Update forced". Then the refresh is fast again.

    But I think refresh in PlasticScm should detect deleted files automatically and handle it in a better way.

  20. My VSS SCM got disabled when I uninstalled Plastic. the reason I uninstalled Plastic, is because VSS->Git->Plastic resulted in CRLF->LF in all files, which broke all DSW and DSP files (and others).
