Release Notes

codeBeamer Extension: The new codeBeamer issue tracker extension is now included in Plastic SCM. To enable this new integration, go to 'Preferences' -> 'Issue Tracking' dialog in Plastic SCM GUI client.

Windows GUI: The diff view now shows an info message when an encoding change is detected.

Windows GUI: Creating branches from issue tracker information is now available for all supported extensions: BugZilla, Mantis, FogBugz, Rally, VersionOne, Trac and Axosoft.

However, we regret to inform you that the 'Mark task as open in issue tracker' option won't be available for VersionOne.

Plastic SCM release names are now song names. A link to the Spotify song can be found in the 'About' dialog.

Windows GUI: Syntax highlight and Semantic diff are now enabled in the 'method history' feature.

Windows GUI: Semantic diff now shows the changes in the comments for the .NET languages (C# and Visual Basic).

Windows GUI: Fixed an error when closing the 'checkin pending changes' dialog when no checkin comment is provided. Previously, if the dialog was closed using the close button, the checkin was still performed. Now, when closing the dialog, the checkin operation is cancelled.

Windows GUI: The Plastic SCM theme for Windows can now be changed from the 'Preferences' dialog. To change the theme, go to 'Preferences' -> 'Theme'. Two new themes (Montana and Montana Dark) are now included within the Plastic SCM installer.

The theme can be also changed by using the --theme=themename option from the command line.

Current avaliable theme names are: 'i3', 'windowsnative', 'montana' and 'montana-dark'.

Several improvements in the differences calculation have been done:

* Calculate xdiff moved regions inside semantic changed declarations

* Calculate moved regions inside other xdiff moved regions (recursively)

All this info was previously available but not directly shown in the 'diff' textboxes. You needed to use the xdiff buttons to diff the contents.

In the case of moved regions inside other moved regions you ended up with several windows opened.
