Release Notes
8.0.16.3177: Apr 30 2019
Command line client: we have renamed the "remove" subcommand of "cm changeset" to "delete" to make the naming consistent with the other commands.
Windows GUI and Gluon: Avoid weird "Invalid value for registry" errors when opening an URL from plastic or gluon. Some of them were causing the tool to crash. In this case, Plastic or Gluon will just log the error with the requested URL.
REMARK: The "Invalid value for registry" error is not caused in any case by Plastic or Gluon. Contact Microsoft support if you are experiencing such errors when opening URLs from outside your web browser. It will fail not only from Plastic or Gluon, but also from other tools, or even shortcuts to web pages.
Command line client: some fields of the 'cm status' XML output were obfuscated. Instead of their actual name ("MovedPath", "Size", "LastModified" and so on) all you could see was "a", "b", "c"… Now it is fixed.
Additionally, there are "printable" fields now. They contain redundant information, but in a human-readable format.
* "Type" contains a couple of characters to indicate the type of the change, but "TypeVerbose" uses the full word.
* "PrintableMovedPath" shows both "Path" and "OldPath" for moved files and directories, separated by an arrow.
* "Size" is the size of the file in bytes, but "PrintableSize" represents the size in the best suitable unit measure.
* "LastModified" field is a parseable DateTime, but "PrintableLastModified" is a human-friendly string of the type "9 hours ago".
<Change> <Type>MV</Type> <TypeVerbose>Moved</TypeVerbose> <Path>README-moved.md</Path> <OldPath>README.md</OldPath> <PrintableMovedPath>README.md -> README-moved.md</PrintableMovedPath> (…) <Size>952</Size> <PrintableSize>952 bytes</PrintableSize> (…) <LastModified>2019-04-25T12:13:18.7890246+02:00</LastModified> <PrintableLastModified>1 hours ago</PrintableLastModified> (…) </Change>
Server: multi-instance and heavy load. There was a bug that was reporting that all threads were busy (more than 10 seconds attending a request) when in reality only a few threads were.
