Release Notes

Command line client: Commands which accept the -R or --recursive option will now also accept -r.

We have made the add command a bit more flexible. Previously it was not possible to add a directory if it contained a controlled item. Now you can run add on a directory containing controlled files and it will add only the private items. It also works recursively.

An example should make this clear. Suppose you have the following in your workspace:

src/client/foo.cs      -controlled
|   |-----/bar.cs      -private
|--/common/roo.cs      -private
|--/server/far.cs      -controlled
    |-----/net/goo.cs  -private

You can now add all three private files with one command:

cm add src -R
The selected items are about to be added. Please wait ...
Item c:/workspace/src/client/bar.cs was correctly added
Item c:/workspace/src/common/ was correctly added
Item c:/workspace/src/common/roo.cs was correctly added
Item c:/workspace/src/server/net/ was correctly added
Item c:/workspace/src/server/net/goo.cs was correctly added

Command line interface: We have add using wildcards much nicer. You can now use wildcards to add files recursively, even if you already have controlled files in the directory tree.

For example, just use "cm add -r *.cs" to recursively add all your .cs files in one go.

Plastic & Gluon GUIs: We "bothered" users for years asking to confirm the inclusion of dependencies during the checkin operation when always they wanted them to be included. From now on, we will take care of including the dependencies directly in both, checkin and shelve operations, making life easier for users :)

Plastic for Windows: Improved workspace creation usability:

- After creating a workspace from the repositories view using the "Create workspace for this repository" context menu option, the workspace is automatically opened.

- After creating a workspace from the workspaces view, now the view scrolls and focus the recently created one.
