EGit/New and Noteworthy/3.0

< EGit‎ | New and Noteworthy
Revision as of 19:36, 2 June 2013 by Matthias.sohn.sap.com (Talk | contribs) (Bug Fixes)

EGit Features

  • Consider the ancestor when comparing with remote revisions (bug 400943).
  • History view: Adjust column widths and don't show e-mail addresses by default to improve space use
  • Improve error reporting for pull failures due to conflicts
  • When opening a resource which exists in more than one project (due to nested projects), open it in the most specific project (bug 404629).
  • Allow reset to user-entered commit expression in reset dialog (bug 352142).
  • Commit dialog: the file section can now be resized by hovering the mouse just above the file section title and dragging the sash up or down, making the message section increase/decrease accordingly (bug 343712).
  • Add rename detections to the quickdiff provider
  • Add rename detection to the history file diff viewer
  • Allow users to show server messages while pushing
  • Show fast forward modes in merge dialog

GitHub Connector Features

  • Adapt github connector to use JGit/EGit 3.0
  • Switch UserPlan fields to long instead of int
    • This expected size can be common for large Enterprise installs.
  • Add service support for contents API

Performance Improvements

  • Lessen the re-indexing work and number of queued jobs (bug 381856).
