'Modified' SVN Action over 'Replacing'
Issue: In most cases, committing changes from the Commit tab marks 'Action' in SVN logs as 'Replacing' than 'Modified'. This is creating a major tree conflict and related problems for us when trying to merge changes between branches.
Suggested feature: add option in settings to change this behavior so that Source Control will always do 'Modified' for existing objects than 'Replacing'.

SSH Passphrase
I am not able to push changes to my repo using SSH because I am unable to enter my passphrase. I have to push/pull using Git Bash.

Implement the "IGNORE" rules so that database objects can be completed filtered out of source control
Introduce something similar to the "IGNORE" rules found in your Schema compare for Oracles solution to the SQL Server Source Control product.
The problem that exists for those of us with third party databases that have 10's of thousands of objects is that they are not workable using this product because it ONLY applies the filter AFTER it has already tried to extract and manage the ENTIRE database. The "IGNORE" option would allow us capabilities similar to filter but they would be applied UP FRONT and BEFORE the system ever tried to gather and manage every single object in the…47 votes -
Make SQL Source Control external to SSMS
Make SQL Source Control external to SSMS like SQL Compare. This would allow the developer to use what ever IDE they want to and still commit the changes the same way. I would use SQL Compare to make changes, but it can't do everything SQL Source Control can. Mainly the migration scripts and the pre and post scripts.

Get Latest Error Logging
When attempting to get latest changes and an error occurs, please be more detailed (e.g table, data, column, etc.) that caused the error that will allow user to correct the error. It is possible the user getting the latest change was the person responsible for the error, making it difficult to trouble shoot when your database is relatively large.

Source Control Standalone instead of SSMS snapin
Source conrtol should be a standalone app not SSMS addin. When performing get latest or commits, on large environments and slow connections this can easily take 20 minutes during which a click anywhere else in SSMS restarts the get latest/commit process. The logical use of source control being a SSMS addon has been outlived.
64 votesWe are building a standalone version, which resolves some (not all) of the performance concerns that exist in the current tool. We are hoping for an early preview release in Q1 2021. Please get in touch if you’d like to try it.

Support Database Projects Referenced as Same Database in SSDT
Currently, when comparing an SSDT project using SQL Compare, it only loads the base project. If the project references another project as the same database (the standard workaround to the circular reference problem), the objects in the referenced project will not be compared. This can lead to changes being missed and deployments failing.
It would be nice if SQL Compare could follow the reference back and include the objects from the referenced database in the compare as well.

Do not allow to commit changes to an object that is locked
I don't see why is good this product if it's posible do commit to an object that is locked. If the object is locked this means that the user is editing it Then why allow to commit to this object

Changing a data type used in a SP creates problems
When changing a data type used in a SP (e.g. add a new column to it and commit it). getting latest fails on other linked DBs. You have to drop the SP on the target DB.
The weird thing is that sometimes it works, but most of the times it doesn't. Not sure why the behavior is not the same all of the times...3 votes -
SQL Source Control - Filter
We are a shop that have multiple systems for clients that we managed from within a single database, using a separate Schema for each system.
I would like to be able to link a TFS database to a filtered list of objects (preferably) an entire schema but I could see where others might like just a subset of other objects.
If this is currently possible please let me know but I do not see a way to accomplish this without having a separate database for each system per client.

migration scripts
When re-linking databases to source control, there is a warning message about loosing all uncommitted migration scripts, with only a OK/Cancel option. It's seems there should be an option for 'take me to the commit page' so that I can commit those scripts, then re-link.

Source Control - Changed by unknown
Problem:
Sysadmin role is required to see who changed a DB object. I am not permitted to have this role and I would imagine many devs are in the same boat. This means that when many objects have been checked-in by many users it is hard to pick out one’s own changes.
Solution:
Have an option when checking-in which adds a 1 line encrypted comment to the start or end of each object script. The comment would contain the username of the person making the check-in (and a control parameter like the time of check-in for instance)
This username can…20 votes -
Feature which should enforce user to lock the object before editing when administrator enables the restrictive policy for the users
Feature which should enforce user to lock the object before editing when administrator enables the restrictive policy for the users
If it is there it will be very much helpful for most of the development projects not testing and production.

Synchronize Replicated Database Environments // or Possible Workaround such as Filter of Table Columns, contraints, indexes, etc...
Create a way I can synchronize:
- NON REPLICATED database X REPLICATED database
- REPLICATED database X REPLICATED Database
Ability to syncronize tables/columns, views, sps, triggers, functions, indexes and constraints.
Avoid displaying individual constraints used for replication. E.g. Constraints that use range of IDs, Indexes of merging, etc.== OR ==
Allow me to:
- Filter Table COLUMNS by Name or part of it; E.g. 'rowguid', '% column name %'
- Filter Constraint Name or part of it; E.g. 'replidentity%'
- Filter Index by Name or part of it; E.g. 'MSmerge_%'

When a user closes a session/SSMS it would be useful to have the user to prompted about any pending check-ins (shared db).
We use a shared environment, and if someone forgets to check something in, then the changes made appear as if from the next user to edit the item.

Prevent user from committing other user's changes
One of the problems with a shared db model, where all developers work against the same database, is that everyone's changes are listed on the Commit List and any user can commit any other user's changes. It would be nice if an administrator setting could be set that would only allow users to commit their own changes There should be someway to prevent other users from committing your changes.

An update for users on the status of this suggestion:
An ‘object locking’ feature was added to SQL Source Control following the creation of this item which can helps users working in a shared database environment not write over each other’s changes.
This may help prevent accidental commits in some cases, as there is a “Locking” tab which allows users to see which other users are working on specific items.
Locked items are still eligible to be committed, however, and there are cases where users will want to commit an item — perhaps to a specific branch in source control which is not ready to deploy — even if the item in the database is locked.
We have found at Redgate that the easiest way to enable alignment with distributed source control systems such as Git is to empower users to use dedicated development databases rather than shared databases. Tools…

Connect same database to multiple branches
We use the shared database development model and can have several projects going at once. Some developers may jump back and forth between projects. It would be nice to have the ability to setup a single database connection to multiple branches. Possibly using the SSMS registered server name instead of the physical server name.

On the "Get Latest" page, provide a way to globally un-check all objects
Can you please provide a way to "Uncheck" the entire list of objects on the "Get Latest" tab. I have 100+ objects ( Team of 6 Devs ) to get latest and 3 or 4 objects have issues, so I have to manually uncheck each of the 100 checkboxes and then check just the ones I think are ok to check in
