1. Allow SQL Source Control to visualize static data potentially hidden by Row-Level Security

   While comparing static data in SQL Compare, there might occur a "red herring" issue where SQL Source Control cannot see filtered table-data due to being read by a user unprivileged for Row-Level Security. Since SQL Source Control cannot see the table-data, it will then suggest to either

   a) Fetch all table-data from the linked repository (causing all kinds of PK- and other constraint issues)
   or
   b) Commit the deletion of all table-data to the linked repository

   We don't want to do either of these actions. Although bypassing Row-Level Security for an unprivileged user isn't possible, it is still possible for an unprivileged user to see the row-count and physical index-stats of a table both by querying system-tables and viewing the "Properties" page of a table. By doing this, it is technically possible for SQL Source Control to see if the rowcount of the table matches the rowcount found in the system-tables and, if they differ, provide a clear warning in the comparison window that this particular table is subject to Row-Level Security and that rows may be hidden to the user.

2. 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 then be displayed in the ‘changed by’ field if the current user does not have the sysadmin role.

3. See incremental changes made before committing

   When working with an object, there is a chance that another developer has made modifications as well since many developers work off of the same database.

   When committing, it would be nice to be able to see a history of modifications. Each time an object is modified (F5) take a commitable snapshot of that object.

   When a developer goes to commit, they could see the different times an object was modified and commit all at one time or commit the individual changes made over time. Doing a commit will roll-up all previous commits made.

   Example:
   Day 1: Dev A: Adds Parameter
   Day 2: Dev B: Sets Default Parameter value
   Day 3: Dev A: Changes the default

   Dev A forgot to commit their initial change, but would like to log a commit for it.
   Dev A could open up SQL Source Control, find that Pending object and "commit" his Day 1 change to SQL Source Control WITHOUT affecting any current changes made.

   This isn't a great use case for an example, I'm sure others can come up with better examples.

   You would need the ability to use Modification Date for the commit date, see my other suggestion:
   https://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/39019-sql-source-control/suggestions/19443883-option-to-use-modification-date-as-the-commit-date

6. Support different static data per customer

   I have a single schema for all customers but different reference data for different customers. It would be nice if I could manage this all within SQL Source Control. This should also be understood by SQL Compare and my continuous integration system when it comes time to deploy this to my different environments and customers' sites.

   Hi all. Thank you for your votes and feedback on this issue over the years. Here is our current guidance for this suggestion:

   Post-deployment scripts give you flexibility for static data

   With SQL Source Control, you can now use a post-deployment script to “dynamically” deploy static data based on a factor such as @@SERVERNAME or other query-able conditions.

   SQL Source Control introduced pre- and post- scripts in v6.3.

   An example post-deployment script which shows how to control deployment of static data by environment is here: https://documentation.red-gate.com/soc7/common-tasks/working-with-pre-post-deployment-scripts/static-data

   If you make heavy use of Static Data, we have stronger support for this in SQL Change Automation.

   SQL Change Automation:

   • Supports column filtered static data tables in the SCA plugin in SSMS
     Supports multiple post-deployment scripts, in case there is a preference to manage static data tables in dedicated post-deployment scripts
   • Allows approaches like bulk loading larger static data tables by supporting SQLCMD variables in migration and post-deployment scripts

   If there are other use cases where a migrations approach would add value to the team – such as easily being able to run data modification statements as part of deployments, or being able to customize the TSQL for schema changes – then changing from SQL Source Control to SQL Change Automation makes sense.

7. A way to select the database from the tab itself.

   I develop and have to switch between multiple databases and the source control tab keeps following the database I am on. When I want to commit changes I have to stay put otherwise I keep losing the progress looking for changes. It would be nice to have the option of which database we are looking at from the tab itself, instead of from the SQL Management Studio one

9. Allow filtering role membership the same as in comparison tools

   We do not source control database users, but we do source control database roles created and the permission sets granted to them. However, even if users are filtered, to check in the role we must check in role membership as well, which can change in the development environment, and is not the same membership we would want deployed to a downstream server

13. The ability to generate a list of objects to commit in Commit tab as well as in 'Get latest' tab.

    If the list of objects to commit run over a page to several pages, it can be difficult to confirm exactly what I'm committing. I like the ability to generate a report list to show all objects as well as selected objects in the Commit tab. It would be nice to have same ability for 'Get latest' objects as well.

16. Custom comparison key in SQL Source Control

    When adding a static table to be managed by SSC the comparison key is automatically selected. Our tables have auto generated INT ID columns as PK used in FK's. In our Static Data tables we have other columns that are unique and for them we have UK’s that we would like to use as the comparison key.

    Here is another with the same issue...
    http://www.red-gate.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=16498&highlight=comparison+key

    I have not found any workaround for this yet at least.
    I believe that this would be a great improvement for SSC and would be used by many. If you agree please vote for this feature so that is gets attention.
