Release Notes

All platforms - Plastic, Gluon: The ability to force Lock and Checkout in the Workspace Explorer context menu is now available!

It can be even invoked from the search menu in Gluon:

If you select a single controlled item, the context menu that appears on right click will include a new "Lock and Checkout" option. It will ensure that an appropriate lock rule the selected item exists in the server, and if it doesn't you'll be prompted to confirm that you want to add a new one.

Important: We added a new permission 'configlocks' that controls access to this feature. Please make sure you are granted that permissions in the current repository (or repository server) and also that your server is updated to a compatible version.

macOS - Gluon: We have tweaked the column width and order in several tables across the application.

Now, the relevant information should be more accessible.

This change affects only to Gluon newcomers - if you already use Gluon for macOS, the order and width of the columns in the applications are stored in a preference. If you want to reset this preference, you can execute the following command:

$ rm -rf /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/com.codicesoftware.*

All platforms - Gluon: When diffing a file from the "Workspace Explorer" or the "Checkin changes" views, the diffs was not editable. Now it's fixed.

All platforms - Mergetool: the mergetool used to show the full path and branch or changeset specification for each of the 3 contributors to the merge (or 2 contributors for a diff).

Of course, if the path is the same for all the contributors there is no point showing multiple times. In this case, we now display the file path in the title bar, and only show the unique specification of each contributor above each file pane. This makes it much easier to see all the relevant information, especially for long paths.

macOS, Linux - Plastic, Gluon: We replaced text entries for editable comboboxes in many of the places we ask you to type in a server. Those comboboxes are filled with the servers you use frequently - this way, there is no need to remember a server address. What's even better, if you are a Cloud Edition user, the comboboxes actually have ALL of the organizations you are part of! Check out how it looks in macOS:

macOS, Linux - Plastic: Implemented two new options in the history view:

* Diff changeset -> Launches the diff window for the changeset the revision belongs to.

* Revert to this revision -> Checkouts the file on disk and replaces the file content with the content of the selected revision.
