10.0.16.6505: Feb 03 2022

New

Command-line client: Updated the help for the cm archive command.

We removed the --comment option from the help of the cm archive command because it's not available.

If you want to assign a comment to the 'archive' operation, please use the -c option.

For example:

 cm archive bigfile.zip#br:/main -c="volume00"

Bug

All Platforms - GitSync: Protected some null errors when synchronizing with git repositories.

Bug

All Platforms - Client: Fixed a "repository mounted twice" error during checkin.

This error was only reproduced if there were multiple Xlinks pointing to the same repository in the workspace.

It also only happened if before-clientcheckin triggers existed for that repo. Otherwise, it was not reproduced at all.

Bug

All Platforms - CLI: status was not filtering properly by changelist

The option to group and filter controlled changes by changelists was not displaying only those changes under the changelist. Now it is fixed.

Having two controlled files in your workspace (file1.txt and file2.txt), each one under a different changelist (chlist1 and chlist2).

"cm status --changelists" will show something similar to the following:

Changed
    Status         Size       Last Modified    Path
    Checked-out    5 bytes    1 hour ago       file1.txt

Changed
    Status         Size       Last Modified    Path
    Checked-out    7 bytes    1 hour ago       file2.txt

while "cm status --changelist=chlist1" will display something like

Changed
    Status         Size       Last Modified    Path
    Checked-out    5 bytes    1 hour ago       file1.txt

Alpha bug

All platforms - PlasticX: Improved exception handling

We detected some situations in which an exception could cause the application to crash. We fixed these scenarios to catch the errors and show them in a message box, and then continue with the application, instead of unexpectedly closing it

Alpha bug

All platforms - PlasticX: Fixed 10% CPU usage in the Attributes panel

Displaying the Branch Explorer view caused Plastic X to report a constant 10% CPU usage in the Task Manager. This CPU consumption was caused by an animated progress bar placed in the Attributes panel. Although that progress bar was hidden, it continued invalidating the panel, causing that CPU consumption. Now it's fixed.

Alpha bug

All platforms - PlasticX: Fixed an issue when creating dynamic workspaces

When creating a workspace, if the user selected the "Create workspace from this repository..." option from the repositories view, the dynamic workspace checkbox was being ignored, and we were always creating normal workspaces. We fixed this issue, and now the checkbox works as expected

Alpha bug

All platforms - PlasticX: draw Home icon after switch to branch

Fixed an issue where the Home icon wasn't being drawn after switching to a branch or label.
