Command-line client: Annotate command options update
- Change
Command-line client: The command to annotate files (cm annotate) was using, among others, the --ignore option, with (eol | whitespaces | "eol&whitespaces" | none) as possible values. Due to other commands are using another interface, it has been decided to homogenize them all. Now, --ignore will become --comparisonmethod and its regarding options will be (ignoreeol | ignorewhitespaces | ignoreeolandwhitespaces | recognizeall).
- Change
Command-line client: NOTE:
- Deprecation
Command-line client: Old syntax will be deprecated, but it is still working. Therefore, scripts or other programs using this command will continue working as before. Despite of this, we encourage to update its usage to the new interface. More details in the command help.
- Change
Command-line client: Example: in case we want to annotate a foo.c file which has been created and checked-in on a unix system and after that some changes were done and checked-in on a Windows platform, we might want to ignore the EOL:
- Windows
- Change
Command-line client: Diff command options update

Command-line client: Shelveset apply command options update
- Change
Command-line client: The command to apply shelvesets (cm shelveset apply) was using the --comparisonmethod with (ignoreeol | ignorewhitespaces | ignoreeolwhitespaces | notignore) as possible values.

Now, "ignoreeolwhitespaces" will become "ignoreeolandwhitespaces" and "notignore" will become "recognizeall".

- Feature
Command-line client: Example: in case we want to see how many added, modified and deleted lines in a foo.c file and compare them with its version from a different branch, recognizing all, including EOL and whitespaces:
- Change
Server: Server backups no longer block read-only web calls
- Change
Server: The web calls were not allowed while the server was running a backup. Now the web calls that are read-only calls are allowed during the backup. This applies to the web client, the web admin, and also mergebots.
- Change
Command-line client: After-checkin trigger payload: move operations were not displaying move reference information
- Change
Command-line client: Previously, after-checkin triggers were generating a JSON content with several variables. One of these variables is named INPUT, which contains information about the changes checked in. These changes might be one of the following: AD, CH, DE and MV, indicating the type of operation which was performed regarding one item. MV operation has a particularity, as it involves not only one file but two.
- Fix
Command-line client: Now it has been fixed and displays both source and destination of the moved file in the proper order (src->dst).
- Change
Command-line client: For example, let's imaagine we have a workspace with the following controlled contents: "./foo.c" and "./FooFolder" and we perform the following operations:
- Change
Command-line client: The INPUT variable will now display:
- Change
Command-line client: As you can see, there are two changes corresponding the changes in the root directory and the change in the fooFolder and a MV operation, which now details both source file and destination file of that operation, separated by a "->" operand and both displaying all the information re the change.
- Change
Command-line client: Therefore, for the move operation, the specification will become:
- Change
Command-line client: IMPORTANT NOTE: it is possible that users already parsing this output will perceive their parsers start to fail. We are sorry for any inconvenience this might cause. We balanced different options and finally decided to give you more information for you to use, despite of it might be needed to retouch existing parsers at this moment.
All platforms - PlasticX
- Improvement
Improved the revision list layout. Now it optimizes the horizontal space. We also display the avatar for the revision creator (note that it displays the Gravatar image when the username is an email).
- Change
Setup a new panel that allows displaying diffs/annotate for the selected revision.
- Change
Support history for text, image, binary, and directories revisions.
- Removal
Note that in this version of the history view, we display the changeset comment for the moved and removed revisions (previously the comment was not displayed).
- Improvement
We also improved the way we display the changeset comments in the details panel. Long comments are split in two chunks, and the second chunk can be expanded/collapsed.
Bug
- Removal
Command-line client: Changelist wrongly removed by cm status with filter
- Change
Command-line client: Running the command from above, non-persistent changelists only containing local changes are expected to be omitted from output. However, the command was actually erasing the changelist. Now, doing the same preserves the changelist intact.
- Fix
All platforms - PlasticX: Fixed error in branches explorer dialog
- Fix
All platforms - PlasticX: Opening the branches explorer dialog would, in some cases, for example performing the "Merge from this changeset to ...", trigger an unexpected exception. We fixed that.
- Change
All platforms - PlasticX: Focus items list after search
- Fix
All platforms - PlasticX: In Plastic X, using the items search and selecting a search result using the "Enter" key, caused the items list to not grab the keyboard focus. Now it's fixed.
- Fix
All platforms - GluonX: Fixed comments textbox losing the focus.
- Fix
All platforms - GluonX: After doing a check-in or undo checkout operation in GluonX, a bug prevented the check-in comments textbox to preserve the keyboard focus while typing. Quite annoying. Now is fixed.

- Fix
All platforms - PlasticX: There was an exception that was thrown sometimes while navigating through directories in the workspace explorer. This issue is now fixed
- Change
All platforms - PlasticX: Null exception closing shelves view
- Fix
All platforms - PlasticX: In PlasticX, there was a rare issue where a null exception message could appear when closing Shelves View, we fixed this issue
