Release Notes

Gluon (Linux, Windows, OS X): Improved checkout operation with locks: now it asks the user if they want to skip the locked files and checkout the rest.

WebUI: The view filter contents will be saved when navigating through the app. It means that setting a custom date filter in the branches view will still be there if you open a branch diff and then you go back to the branches view! This applies to text filters as well.

When the merge operation cannot apply some of the changes it was returning the error 'Some merge operations cannot be applied.' without any info about which changes cannot be applied. Now, the error message includes which changes cannot be applied and why.

Triggers: before-editreview and after-editreview:

Two new environment variables are available for the before and after editreview triggers regarding the review comments:

"PLASTIC_REVIEW_COMMENT" and "PLASTIC_REVIEW_COMMENT_ACTION".

The first one contains the comment that fired the trigger, and the second one reflects the action on the comment ("Created", "Edited", or "Deleted").

These variables will be empty if the action that fired the trigger is changing the code review status or the assignee.

This closes the following UserVoice request: Add environment variable for added/changed comment on edit review trigger

Gluon (Windows, Linux, OS X): New feature to load/unload files using patterns (e.g. *.png).

Now it is possible to load/unload files using patterns (e.g. *.jpg) using the search dialog in the Configuration view!

Just click the "search files" button (or CTRL-F) when your Workspace Explorer is in Configuration Mode. Then type patterns (*.jpg, *.psd, ...) in the search text box and then toggle (load/unload) all the search results.

Pro tip: Use Ctrl+A/Cmd+A to select all the nodes in the tree, and then use the space bar to toggle the load/unload status.

NOTE: we detected on Gluon for Windows that changing the load state of tons of files (more than 5000) severely harms the operation performance. The performance looking for Unity3D .meta files isn't great, either. We'll fix these issues ASAP.

Plastic for linux and mac: Added a new context menu option ("undo changes") to undo selected files in the pending changes view.

You now can multi-select a subset of files in the pending changes view, then right click and select "undo changes" for that selection.

Plastic and Gluon (all platforms): Completely redo the pending changes options dialog. We better classified the options, and each one is now self-explained. We also added new ones:

* Compare file contents instead timestamp to determine changed files.

* Move files similarity percentage.

* Check if fswatcher/inotify is enabled and working and warn if not (only Windows and Linux).

* Added a property to enable the "precise change tracking" based on the NTFS journal (only Windows).

WebUI: We added move detection to the side-by-side diff viewer! The moved regions will be painted in the editors with a lighter color and a new purple region in the splitter will appear joining them! Next step, allow you to put the regions side-by-side so you can easily see the differences :)
