  3. Add "Modified Date"

    On the "Commit Changes" and "Get Lastest" tab, you should include the last date the object has been modified. So you will be able to sort/filter the objects recently modified.

  4. Right Click View Changes on object

    Just started using SQL Source Control - If I look at a database which is already withi subversion and I look at a table I can see that it has changes - It would be nice to be able to just right click on that table and select an option to 'View Changes' so that I can quickly see the changes which have been made to that table.

  6. Need ability to replace specific Data Table columns with functions, and then ignore in comparisons

    One of the things that we have in all of tables is a "DateCreated" and "ModifiedBy". DateCreated is supposed to be the UTC time of the creation of the record. For Metadata supported by SQL Source Compare -- this is becoming the date the script was written, rather than the date the production goes live. We would like to state that the actual column should be replaced by GETDateUTC(), rather than the time the record was first created in development, and then we want to tell SQL Source Control to ignore the underlying column for comparison.

    We want to be…

  8. Prevent UI-reset when "Commit Changes" fails

    When I encounter a problem when attempting to commit changes (e.g. I forget to enter a comment), the UI gets completely reset and I have to reset everything from scratch (not to mention waiting for the comparison to refresh, which takes a long time). It'd be much nicer if a) it prevented me from making a commit with no comment, and b) it doesn't reset all my selections and dialogs.

  10. Is there any planned support for SVN bugtraq properties?

    Is there any planned support for SVN bugtraq properties?

    Right now it seems to ignore any of those settings.

    For example,

    bugtraq:label
    bugtraq:message
    bugtraq:number
    bugtraq:url
    bugtraq:warnifnoissue

  11. Add single object to source control

    Currently I find the filter rules implementation a bit clunky. I personally would prefer to be able to source control individual database objects explicitly. For example, it would be nice to be able to right-click on a database object in SSMS and have the option to add it to source control. This could have the effect of adding an "Include if object name equals xxx" filter rule.

  14. Support different format of source control source files.

    By default during initial sync Red-Gate creates object’s files with binary attribute. It is more relevant to them to be string type -- Unicode (which they are actually). It is necessary due to some file-diff tools incorrectly handles binary files. There no way to change default file creation attribute (binary).
    Let user choose target sourse control object's file attribute.

    We have the same issue as noted here: http://www.red-gate.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=13662&highlight=foriegn+foreign+key

    The FK is recreated with NOCHECK during data sync which triggers a schema change.

  17. Object Explorer Details context menu

    When right-clicking a database in the Object Explorer Details page. The context menu doesn't reflect the database you click on. It still relates to the database selected in the Object Explorer tree.

    SSC 2.2.1.23

  18. User-configurable tab width in diff views

    When viewing differences prior to check-in (or prior to get-latest), the DIFF view always expands tab characters to 8 wide. Our standard is to use hard tabs to indent, 4 characters wide.

    It would be nice to be able to tell SQL Source Control that our tabs are 4 chars wide, so that the diff displays are easier to read and interpret quickly!

  19. SQL Source Control Static Views (or Table Subsets using WHERE clause)

    I would like the ability to source control a subset of a table (perhaps using a view).

    I have inherited a database where lookup data is intermixed with user defined data. We reference the lookup data in the table using a code (VARCHAR) that is unique when another field is NULL, so it is possible to ensure that records are created/updated/deleted without concern for the primary key involved.

    For more information, you can refer to this forum post:
    http://www.red-gate.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?p=50087

    under review  ·  Kendra responded

    Hi everyone. I have merged some User Voice items on this topic of “filtered” static data, as there was significant overlap. I want to share our current guidance on handling scenarios where you need to version a subset of the columns and/or rows in the table.

    With SQL Source control, the best option at this point is to use a post-deployment script for this purpose.

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

    A post-deployment script gives you a good amount of flexibility over exactly which rows or columns of data you want to include in your project. Example post-deployment scripts for static data are 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…

  20. Make SoC force review of change by manager before accepting commit to repository
