5.0.44.596: Aug 15 2014

New

Extensions: A new extension supporting CodeBeamer interoperability has been added. This allows the branch explorer and the changesets or branches views to display issue tracking information from CodeBeamer.

Setup: Include these lines inside your 'client.conf' file:

     <Extensions>
        <Extension AssemblyFile="[PATH_TO_PLASTIC]\client\extensions\codebeamer\codebeamerextension.dll" />
     </Extensions>

Also, you should create a file in the same directory as the 'client.conf' file, called 'codebeamerextension.conf' to configure the extension. You can use this as a template:

    <CodeBeamerExtensionConfiguration>
        <HttpUrl>http://localhost:8080</HttpUrl>
        <User>tester</User>
        <Password>tester</Password>
        <BranchPrefix>scm</BranchPrefix>
        <WorkingMode>TaskOnBranch</WorkingMode> <!-- TaskOnChangeset is also available -->
    </CodeBeamerExtensionConfiguration>

New

Command line client: Annotate command: Now it is possible to annotate a specific revision from the command line, using its full specification.

    * cm ann AclCmd.cs#cs:12548@libs@saturn:8087

Bug

Jenkins plugin: The jenkins plugin did not reuse Plastic SCM workspaces correctly when the 'Use update' preference was set. Fixed.
