      • Why check and re-check for changes so many times?

        Using SSC 3.0.11.3531
        Dedicated development model

        1. We finally get a nice little notification that Commit Tab has been updated. (Kudos for finally doing something in the background and letting users know they have to take action on something)
        2. Click on the notification to open the Commit Tab
        3. Wait for SSC to determine latest version and work out whats changed.
        4. Select my items and say commit
        5. Wait for SSC to once again determine the latest version and work out whats changed and commit my selected changes to TFS.

        Surely
        a) You already know what items are… more

        • SQL Source Control For Data Updation

          We have gone though SQL source control and it workd perfectly with our Mercurial repository for schema changes. We also want some data changes to be source controlled like in some master tables , we have added some values. We want that these values should be added in the target database with the schema changes when the target db update itself by taking latest, so this type of feature i available in RedGate or we have to do some manual work for data changes. Kindly guide. Thanks

            • Add support to SQL Source Control for generating upgrade scripts to a SQL Azure database

              If you have only the SQL Source control product, you can use it to upgrade your production SQL server database. But if you switch to Azure SQL, you lose this capability. I think the option to generate upgrade scripts that are Azure compatible would be great!

                When I click on the popup window telling me that is is done getting latest for my database in the background, when I click on the (click here to go to the database) link, it resizes my SSMS window (almost looks like it does the restore down button between the x and minimize button in the upper right.

                • Add support for ADD SIGNATURE / DROP SIGNATURE

                  Maybe it is a bug. But code like

                  DROP SIGNATURE FROM dbo.mySP
                  BY CERTIFICATE [myCertficate];

                  is not recognized as a change. Please consider to support this

                  • RCS Codes interfere with change detection using Perforce

                    RCS keyword expansion expansion in Perforce is detected as a change when comparing DB and Source Control code. This is unhelpful. SQL Source Control should ignore changes in RCS tags content when the file type is set to KText

                    • Default constraint names with escape characters aren't registered as a change

                      I accidently did an sp_rename 'DF_Visits_Some3234234', '[DF_Visits_SomeNumber]', 'Object' and committed it to SVN. Now, when I change it back, the Source Control does not detect this as a change to commit back. How do I get around this, or it's a bug.

                      • When doing a "get latest", only require read permissions.

                        I would like to be able to allow people to get a copy of the latest set of development functions, etc. kept in a repository. I don't want everyone to be able to write new/modify existing functions. Currently when they try to do a get latest, it errors out saying they need read, check in, check out, and lock permissions. To get around this I've given everyone full permissions in TFS. I don't understand why that would be necessary for a get latest.

                            Needs to be faster when retrieving changes. It takes forever to bring back the list of changed objects after you make a commit. I have to make multiple commits at a time, some are single items some are multiple items. Each commit is based on a change set developed in TFS. It takes all day to get through 88 items just because of the time it takes to refresh the list.
                            Use a rolling refresh of the list after the initial load, new objects can be added in the background, those that are committed just get dropped from the list… more

                              The pattern for migration script names should be a configuration. I would like my migration scripts to identify the version of the database instead of the revisions. Thus I would like to define the name of the migration script.

                                  • Cancel commit clears comments

                                    If I cancel a commit, on the dependencies dialogue window, it seems to clear the original comments.

                                    This usually happens if I forget to include an object for commit, and the popup dialogue reminds me. I know it offers to include dependencies I have missed, but this often I'll have meant to include other objects in the submit. If I click cancel to go back and add them, the comments have been cleared

                                    • BUG: Table stays marked as "changed" even after commit

                                      The source control system keeps thinking a certain table wasn't committed, and marks it up as "changed" to be committed. Here's the table:

                                      -- Columns

                                      CREATE TABLE [dbo].[EvaluacionesCiclosEducativosGruposAcademicos]
                                      (
                                      [CicloEducativoId] [int] NOT NULL,
                                      [EvaluacionId] [int] NOT NULL,
                                      [Grupo] [int] NOT NULL,
                                      [ProfesorId] [int] NOT NULL,
                                      [CursoId] [int] NOT NULL
                                      ) ON [PRIMARY]
                                      GO

                                      It doesn't seem to detect this line, and decides it has to insert it again:

                                      DISABLE TRIGGER [dbo].[tD_EvaluacionesCicloEducativosGruposAcademicos] ON [dbo].[EvaluacionesCiclosEducativosGruposAcademicos]
                                      GO

                                      At the time of this writing, it has inserted the very same section 4 times, one after the other, and wants to keep doing it.

                                      • Only certain users database should be able to do source control

                                        I had three different connection in SSMS. One for each user: Sql admin, webadmin, webapplication user. I think I by mistake made a commit from the connection for the webapplication user which have very few rights. All the users right got screwed up after that.

                                          • Migration script missing extended properties of child tables FKs when making change to parent table.

                                            Bug: when creating a migration script for a table change that requires dropping Foreign Keys on other tables to this table, the generated migration script does not include the extended properties for the Foreign Keys on the other tables when rebuilding the Foreign Keys.
