Release Notes

Public

8.0.16.3257: Jun 06 2019

New

Plastic - all platforms: When creating a new branch, the "Switch workspace to this branch" checkbox is now checked by default.

New

Plastic GUI: We greatly improved the checkin progress:

* Now the GUIs only show the details bar with slow operations. There was a small bug that made them appear when they shouldn't.

* Also, now the GUI shows the correct size unit when the upload operation for a 4MB block finishes.

* The GUI displays the checkin status when there is no info about the current file in the header.

These changes should make the checkin experience much smoother.

You can see the details in the following image:

New

Plastic GUI: We improved the update progress:

* Now the GUIs only show the details message when the total files to update is calculated. There was a small bug that made them appear when they shouldn't.

* Also, the details message is not shown when there are no files to update.

Bug

macOS - plastic: fixed an "unexpected error" that occurred if you double clicked on a group header in the changeset diff view.

Bug

Cloud Edition: The progress shown when pushing a branch to an empty cloud repository was incorrect on some stages of the push operation. Maybe you were seeing progress values > 100%, or abrupt progress decreasing inside the same stage. Now it's fixed.

Remark: This bug also affects on-premise plastic servers configured with a database backend different than Plastic Jet backend.

Bug

Linux - Gluon: while configuring Gluon, the workspace path could not be changed exploring the filesystem through the "Choose…" button. Now that's fixed.

Bug

Cloud Edition: Performance improvement: Pulling a branch from Cloud Server to a local on-premise server were taking more than 2 minutes on fetching items to be pulled. The operation progress seemed to be hung on this stage (altought it wasn't).

This could happen when the branch to be pulled contains several thousands of items on its tree. Now it's fixed, and these extra 2 minutes were removed.

Remark: This improvement also affects on-premise plastic servers configured with a database backend different than Plastic Jet backend.
