    Thank you everyone for the suggestions and votes for this over the years.

    I’d like to surface up a workaround for the “linking” problem which is mentioned in the comments. For the use case of easing pains around environment setup with a large number of databases, we have had customers find success using code based off Alessandro Alpi’s blog post: https://alessandroalpi.blog/2016/06/28/automatically-link-databases-to-red-gate-sql-source-control/

    I do understand that this is a broader issue and hear that many of you also want command line or API support for the product in general.

    If there are specific scenarios or workflows that would be useful to automate for you, this feedback is also very useful, and if you have details on the type of VCS you use and the workflow (such as a branching model) that it would fit in to, that would be very helpful for us to hear as well.

    I had this comment from Robert Clenshaw from RedGate -

    Although there isn't a native way to relink databases, you might want to look at Alessandro Alpi's blog post on this subject as he's written his own Powershell script to do the job. We can't support this as it's not our code, but if this is a major pain point for you then you might want to consider it. Here's the link - https://suxstellino.wordpress.com/2016/06/28/automatically-link-databases-to-red-gate-sql-source-control/

    we have a table of seed numbers that gets updated each time a new record is created. After creating the initial static table we should be able to ignore specific changing values in fields that are volitile (yes it is a poor design)

  3. With Many databases source controlled. It would be great if there was a function to view changes and updates across all databases

  4. From the Source Contol tab, it should be easy to tell which instance you are updating.
