[How to select only meta file on Configure?]

Thank you for giving me more context, but I am still struggling to see why this would be beneficial.

When you make a change to an asset, you would want any changes made in the corresponding meta file to be controlled too, right? Seperating these changes could potentially cause problems in the Unity project down the line.

Sorry for the delay in responding.

If you haven't done already, please reach out to support and we will be happy to assist.

[Saving prefab freezes Unity indefinitely in "InspectorWindow.Repaint"]

Just seen your post in the Unity forum, will respond there!

[Plastic trying to replace old version on drive that no longer exists]

If you delete the below registry key, you should then be able to install Plastic SCM from scratch...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Codice Software Plastic SCM *\previous_installdir

Hope this helps!

[Do we need local server to clone a repo from cloud.]

Hi,

The below command will list the repositories on the local server.

cm lrep local

Hope this helps!

[Saving prefab freezes Unity indefinitely in "InspectorWindow.Repaint"]

Sorry to hear that you are experiencing this behaviour.

Can you please confirm the version of Unity and the version of the Version Control package you have installed? Also, does this behaviour occur on a clean project or only is it only reproducible in your project?

[SceneViewID of prefab changing automatically when I just open it, and I am using Plasticscm]

This is because the Unity plugin checks out prefabs automatically. If this is not something that you want you can turn off the auto-checkout feature.

Hope this helps.

[Do we need local server to clone a repo from cloud.]

Plastic can be used in a distributed way (like git), but it can also be used in a centralised way.
If you do not have a specific requirement, then I would suggest using the centralised method. Please see here for more details.

Hope this helps!

[How "cm find" works.]

Please see the "cm find" guide here.

Hope this helps!

[Jira Cloud integration]

Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, it appears that you do not have the ability to add these custom properties on a Cloud instance of Jira.

Hope this helps.

[How can I use Vim as my diff tool, why is it "not found"?]

Hey @ben

I've also had troubles getting vim/neovim working as a merge tool (This could well be down to my lack of vim knowledge though!). You mention that you managed to get this working previously. Do you happen to know what version? I tried on 10.0.16.6656 to no avail with the following command...

"c:\Program Files (x86)\Vim\vim82\vim.exe" -d "@output" "@sourcefile" "@basefile" "@destinationfile" -c 'wincmd J | wincmd ='

[Big bad merge and local uncommited work became one. How do I rescue my changes?]

I believe what you want is a subtractive merge. Please see links below:

[Workspace not showing up for other members?]

Hmmm... strange. Please log a support ticket so we can get together and figure this out!

[How to select only meta file on Configure?]

The Version Control package (within Unity's Package Manager) can be configured to be used with a Gluon workspace. Does this provide the functionality you require? And if not, please let me know how we could make it better.

[PlasticX: Please remove "Your license expires in XX days" banner]

Hi @Xavier, The Product Management team have accepted that this is something we plan to resolve. We are just in the planning stages of a solution. Sorry to hear that it is haunting you!

[Why is ignore.conf not included in the repository by default?]

Hi Jack,

If the repository is created via the Version Control package in Unity, then a default ignore.conf should be added to your repository. If the repository is created in the Plastic SCM client, then a default ignore.conf file is not created, because the origin of the repository is unknown to us. You can, however, add an ignore.conf to a special repository called plastic-global-config, so that it can be shared across repos. More information about this can be found in the Administrators Guide.

Hope this helps!

[Forum Sign Up is unnecessarily difficult]

This question has now been removed. Apologies for the unnecessary difficulty.

[Ignore.conf not working]

Hi Donald,

It is worth noting that ignore.conf only works with private files. If the file has already been checked in, you need to delete it from the repository before it will be effected by ignore.conf.

Hope this helps! 

[Move changeset in a different branch.]

These are both great feedback items. Thanks for sharing them...

• Copy Changeset to Shelve
• Deleting the current changeset reverts you to previous with changes put to pending

I will share these both with the Product Management team.

[Workspace not showing up for other members?]

Let me know if you need some assistance with this

[Option to use Legacy GUI doesn't get saved anymore]

Thanks for sharing these. I'll share them with the Desktop team.

[Diff displays != as single =/= character]

Definitely! Logged as a task for a fix. Thank you both.

[Archiving cloud repository]

Unfortunately, the documentation you have found is mainly based around the on-prem version of Plastic SCM, which is why you are having trouble with a Cloud repository.

To delete a repository from the cloud you should use the Plastic SCM client, right-click on a repository and select delete. If you want to make a backup (local copy) of the repository, you should create a sync view and sync it to a local repository.

Hope this helps!

 

[Could we have file size information?]

Thanks both for the feedback. I couldn't agree more, especially with the additional context.

I'll share this with the team.

[New Plastic SCM web experience open beta now live on the Unity Dashboard!]

Although Unity is primarily a 3D engine company, we do intend to keep Plastic SCM as a versatile Source Control tool for everyone. Thank you for sharing your feedback, I will pass all this on to the team.
