  1. It can be very useful to add an option for reading from a nuget package store, in addition to "Direct From Source Control" and "Scripts folder".
    The package should be reached unsing the http url. This is useful when reading from a build server outcome, which can upload the packages to the nuget store.

  2. Please add an option in the UI of SQL Compare to include static data. This would be equivalent to the command-line option "Include:StaticData"

    If selected it would compare and deploy data changes to the target DB (along with the schema changes), and ideally it could also link the static data table in the target DB if not already linked. Use case is where a new table is created and linked in a dev branch and you want to deploy to trunk.

  3. There are cases when for continuous intergration we use Visual Studio Project 2013 to build our databses. Sometimes we need to use database variables these look like: [$(DatabaseName)]. Though Visual Studio can recognize it as a variable, redgate will not and will output that as it is for deployment or comparison.There need to be an option where these variables can be ignored or output using the variable name which is specified in the project.

  5. Not always a deployed database has the same name of the source database due to customers' naming conventions. So it'd be great if SQL Compare will be three-part identifiers aware, so that if you compare the same table from different named databases as following:

    SELECT *
    FROM MyDatabaseA.MyTable

    SELECT *
    FROM MyDatabaseB.MyTable

    SQL Compare will not show them as different if you want a three-part identifiers insensitive comparison.

  6. I understand that you have the ability to compare DBs to sqlproj but it would be nice to have it compare with a dacpac. That way I can build a project, persist that build number and deploy from that dacpac.

  7. If you run a script with option to use the "USE database" clause and the database doesn't exist the script will go ahead and attempt to run the script in the current database. This is usually "master" if you are in a new query window and if you only adding new items it will add them all to the master db.

  8. We really need the ability to "sync" a database to VCS repository, not just compare. I know this limitation exists by design because conflicts can be missed, but we have a scenario that demands it. We have batch check-ins that can take up to a half a day to commit manually.
