  1. Copy Filters between databases, or have a standard Filter template.

    I would like to be able to copy the Filters to different databases, or have a Filter template which I can save to apply to other databases. There are many objects which I do not want to be moved from Development, QA, Integration and Production. Currently, I generated the XML using a query with sys.databases and saved it to DifferenceFilters.xml which is a pain.

  2. Linked data rollback does not filter table(s) when using Sql Data Compare

    A developer changed a value on some static reference data. I right-clicked on the table to show the source control history. Then I selected the latest changeset to overwrite changes made to the database. This task uses Data Compare. However, when the tool comes up, all of the tables are selected instead of the one that I selected. I wanted Sql Source Control to filter just the table that I selected or at least filter the tables associated with a targeted changeset.

  3. Non breaking space in stored procedure causes error on check-in

    I've been experiencing errors on check-in for a stored procedure that was OK as far as SQL Server was concerned. Source Control was complaining about syntax errors all over the procedure. The problem was that the proc was copied from a web page and all the spaces were non-breaking spaces. After replacing them with "normal" spaces the check-in was fine.

  4. Rife with Out of Memory Exceptions.

    So, I install the tool to use with a real-world database of 1GB. And all I get are Out-of-Memory exceptions when trying to add data. Or even just run the tool. This is one of the worst software experiences that I've ever had!

    Did I just get a buggy version? 3.0.13.4214

  5. SQL Source Control / Red Gate Configuration Database

    I think it would be nice if SQL Source Control (or Red Gate in general, in case it is useful across other products) had its own config database. This would be the one location to store all information related to this product, instead of storing some information in a database (v3.1 RG_AllObjects table), some in .xml config files, and some as extended properties on the database.

    I would much rather create one database (that I could specify on install, instead of having to go into a config file and change it from TempDB) that I could host of a single…

  6. compare what I am about to check in against the previous check in

    I see the changes to be checked in , these may have been done by other developers. I want to compare the changes about to be checked in against the previous version to see what changed before I check in.

  10. Every database has its own Comments before Commit

    I usually use the Comments feature of the Source Control in two ways:
    1. The normal way, i.e. as the comment for a Commit
    2. A note before "Commit". But, using it as a note is quite awkward because it will not stick with the database. When moving to another database, the note will become the note for current database.
    I wish that the every database can have its own Comment to stick with before Commit so that it will not accidentally commit with the wrong comments.

  12. UI defefect after unlinking SQL DB from VCS

    DB was linked to SVN repository.
    I needed to move its location (apparently not supported).
    So I unlinked, planning to re-link in new location, disregarding history.
    Once unlinked, the source control tab UI was messed up.
    Close the tab, re-open, still messed up.
    Disconnect the DB, reconnect, show the source control tab, still messed up.
    Close SQL Management studio, restart, show DB, show source control tab, then finally it was OK again.

    Messed up = I could not see the any of the text on the setup tab that normally says "not linked... Link DB to source control..."
    In its…

  13. Bug with certain tables names

    If you have 2 tables Config and ConfigData and wish to store static data for both of them then after you have committed successfully it comes back saying that that the Config is not committed and lets you commit it again. Each time incrementing the committed version but always saying there is a difference. It is most liely because you store the data scripts as <tablename>_data.sql and it is getting confused between the 2 tables.

  16. ComparisonOptions.xml should be easily shared and checked-in for each project

    Having to set up as described in the link below isn't very nice at all.
    http://documentation.red-gate.com/display/SOC3/Setting+SQL+Compare+options+in+SQL+Source+Control

    This should be a standard (easily-accessible) setting that you can have on a per-project basis (not a per developer basis) so that you don't have to worry about individual machines.

  17. Bug. The Change Connection functionality within the SQL Editor is disabled by SQL Source Control.

    When my connection is disabled in SSMS, I use the Change Connection functionality to reestablish it. With SQL Source Control installed, I can't because the Change Connection functionality is disabled.

  18. Sql Source control is saving permissions for users that I don't care about

    I only save certain users (app users, etc.) to source control on my linked dev database. I am not concerned about other users' object permissions. There needs to be a way to ignore them. I know you can via Schema Compare, but the ignore option needs to be in Sql Source Control.

  19. Add searchable 'tag' values to be associated with Source Control check-in.

    Such tags might include task/issue tracking numbers, Agile cycle, or other relevant information. Such a feature would allow for the correlation of management of activities beyond the RedGate tool.
