5.4.14.594: Aug 13 2014

New

GameUI: Usability and performance improvements have been included in this release:

* Aesthetical improvements.

* Keyboard shorcuts.

* Item search in 'Workspace configuration' mode.

* Improved status calculation performance.

* Initial Xlink support.

New

Upgrade system: New 'server.conf' key, named 'ForceBuildNumberMatch' enables sysadmins to force Plastic SCM clients to upgrade to the latest build, even if the clients are compatible with the server. The server will reject requests if the build number doesn't match.

To configure it enter the following value in server.conf:

    <ForceBuildNumberMatch>yes</ForceBuildNumberMatch>

New

Command line client: A new command, 'codereview' or 'cr' has been added to the command line client. It is intended to create, edit and delete code reviews in a given repository. As usual, code reviews can be created for branches or changesets.

Examples:

    * cm codereview cs:1856@myrepo@myserver:8084 "Task 10034"  --assignee=johndoe
    * cm codereview 1367 -e --assignee=new_assignee
    * cm codereview -d 1367 --repository=myremoterepo@myremoteserver:18084

To get further information, please check the documentation ('cm help cr').

New

Mac Plastic SCM GUI: Ignored elements on the 'Workspace Explorer' and the 'Pending changes' view will now be correctly displayed as 'Ignored' items, including the overlay icon on the 'Workspace Explorer'.

Bug

GUI: Diffing two changesets in the same branch was throwing a 'key duplicated' exception when a deleted item between these changesets was previously merged to the branch. Fixed.
