Release Notes

All platforms - Server: We added triggers for object removal events!

The goal is that you can set-up scripts to run automatically before and/or after objects are deleted. The objects handled are branches, changesets, labels and attributes. This is the complete list of new triggers:

* before-rmchangeset

* after-rmchangeset

* before-rmbranch

* after-rmbranch

* before-rmlabel

* after-rmlabel

* before-rmattribute

* after-rmattribute

The Plastic trigger mechanism sets environment variables whose values you can use in your script.

For branch deletions, use the trigger type rmbranch. It sets the following:

* PLASTIC_BRANCH_NAME: The name of the branch

* PLASTIC_FULL_BRANCH_NAME: Name including parent

For changeset deletions, use the trigger type rmchangeset. It sets the following:

* PLASTIC_BRANCH_NAME: The name of the branch

* PLASTIC_CHANGESET_NUMBER: Number of the deleted changeset

* PLASTIC_CHANGESET_OWNER: Owner of the changeset

For label deletions, use the trigger type rmlabel. It sets the following:

* PLASTIC_BRANCH_NAME: The name of the branch

* PLASTIC_CHANGESET_NUMBER: Number of the labelled changeset

* PLASTIC_CHANGESET_OWNER: Owner of the labelled changeset

* PLASTIC_LABEL_NAME: The name of the label

For attribute deletions, use the trigger type rmattribute. It sets the following:

* PLASTIC_ATTRIBUTE_NAME: The name of the attribute

Additionally, all the new trigger types set the following variables:

* PLASTIC_USER: The current user name

* PLASTIC_CLIENTMACHINE: The machine name

* PLASTIC_SERVER: Server address

* PLASTIC_REPOSITORY_ID: The repository id

* PLASTIC_REPOSITORY_NAME: The repository name

* PLASTIC_COMMENT: The object's comment

Windows, macOS - Plastic: We improved how the Merge View displays the controlled errors. Before it did so using modal alerts. Now the errors are in a text view.
