  1. Respect Marked items for Undo

    In the Source Control window I check severall objects and then, when I right click on Undo, a new window opens that only keeps one of the selected objects checked. And this new "Undo" window does not show code differences between DB and Source control. This forces me to Undo each object one at a time. Please keep all selected objects when using the Undo option

    This is already possible in the tool:

    It’s the row selections that are recognised by this feature. So you need to use Shift or Ctrl to select the items you’d like to undo, then right click and select undo. This will result in the entire selection being checked in the next screen.

  2. Changes to synonyms are not detected

    We use synonyms when accessing data through linked servers. If the synonym is changed to use a new linked server Source Control does not detect that change.

  3. Unable to Connect your databases to your source control system

    I get the message "Connect your databases to your source control system" yet I have selected the database. The video at http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-source-control/ is irrelevant as it assumes the software works.
    Not the best impression during evaluation.

  4. Showing a change which was made in the past and cannot commit it

    After my initial LINK and COMMIT 1 change in a scalar function is showing - i think it is something i did in the past. I have no idea how this change is even recognized since it's a new DB to the source control but anyway this change cannot be commited it just reappears after commit.

  5. Would like the ability to shelve changes in Vault

    I realize that there is a request for the same in TFS, perhaps the different source control vendor doesn't make this a different request? In any event, we would like to shelve changes and we use Vault.

  6. SQL Source Control shortcomings

    Let me start by saying that we've been successfully integrating Red Gate SQL compare Pro with different source control systems even before the initial release of SQL Source Control became available.
    I finally now got a chance to evaluate the product (shared db model, TFS) and I believe it has several shortcomings that would make it difficult for me to justify paying for extra licenses for each developer working on the project.

    1. Commits are painfully slow.
      Even if I only change one object, it takes me 2 minutes to bring up the dialog to commit this change. If understand the…

    I’m declining this because it’s 2 suggestions in 1.

    For 1, please vote on http://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/39019-sql-source-control/suggestions/462220-don-t-refresh-the-commit-get-latest-automatically.

    For 2, SQL Source Control v3.3 now checks TFS policies on commit. :-) You can find out more information at http://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/39019-sql-source-control/suggestions/726952-evaluate-tfs-policies-rules-when-committing-db-c.

  7. Format massive, broken queries

    I'm working with a package which generates T-SQL to manage a complex object database implemented in SQL Server. One query, saved with Profiler, was over 200 pages when pasted into WORD. Once in a while these queries fail, and testing in SSMS is useful. I would like PROMPT to format the query as far as it can, rather then check for errors and then fail with no formatting.

  8. Partial display of db objects based on schema, type etc

    Filtered display and sync of a subset of database objects based on type or schema would be great for databases with large amounts of objects, or where db objects are logically grouped into projects based on their function/application.

    You may also want to vote/comment on the ability to ignore objects. This means that these ignored objects will never show up on your commit list.

  9. outofmemoryexception

    issue when adding a table with static data to SVN. Gives a System.OutOfMemoryException error.
    Created a new SVN folder and re-linked to the new folder. I then setup the static data one-by-one (apart from the table with the large amounts of static data). All of them worked fine. I then added the table with the large static data and I still got the OutOfMemoryException. Please advise on what can be done.

  10. Make connected database more obvious in UI

    Because this product can execute DB changes in bulk, it is essential to highlight clearly the connected database (particularly if it is a Production instance!).

    We do NOT recommend linking production databases to source control. Changes should be made on your development instance that is linked to source control. These changes should be deployed to your other environments (Test > Staging > Production) using SQL Compare.

    FYI – Have you heard about our NEW SSMS Integration Pack, http://www.red-gate.com/products/ssms_integration_pack? If you have SQL Compare, this is a free tool that allows you to deploy changes quickly from SSMS.

    If you want, you can comment/vote on the following suggestion:
    Indication of current server / database in source control pane would be useful, http://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/39019-sql-source-control/suggestions/464497-indication-of-current-server-database-in-source-

  11. SQL Source Control toolbar named 'Red Gate'

    I think the toolbar should be named something other than 'Red Gate' - all the other RG toolbars have meaningful names : 'SQL Search', 'SQL Tab Magic'

  18. no files in local folder

    everything seems correct except my local folder with the SVN data does not populate with the sql files. Only on the computer on which the SQL Source Control was first installed and implemented. On other computers it downloads the respective sql files. Can you help?
