It would be great to refresh a specific item within a comparison that I know has changed since the last comparison.

Inline Editing of metadata
In order to make our deployment successful we had to download the package, modify the version numbers on the flow definitions, and then compare the local package to the target org. It would be very helpful if we can edit the metadata XML in the UI so we can fix the version numbers.

API to provision users, assign users to connected organisations

It would be hugely benificial to us (60+ connected organisations, 25 employees working in teams for multiple clients at a time) if we could programatically provision/deprovision users and provide access to connected organisations via an api.

At the moment this is error prone manual work that has to be done by someone with high level access (and as such is usually already short on time).

Allow designated users the ability to modify and start backups without being the owner of the connected org or the person who created the backup.

It would be great to see when a team member last logged in on the user account management page. It would also be great to see like a report or extension on the user page where we can see user usage information. Like number of compares, deployments, etc.. may when last compare was done.

Currently:
We have to define a single fixed source branch in a CI job, when it has a Git-Source.

Desired:
Option to say "use triggering branch". It should use the branch, where current commit-hook-call comes from.

It should allow Pipelines to test also all development branches e.g. with "Validation only" CI-job.

Ability to specify test suites when deploying/validating apex classes. It would be easier when there are a large # of test classes involved with a deployment

It would be so cool if there could be a tab that shows all the items that my selected items depend on. It would be much easier to review / select them then the way I do it now, which is expanding each item in the Selected Items tab to check for things I need to add.

Thanks!

create an option to have chained deployments so complex deployments can be broken down and sequentially deployed or slaves can be ran

allowing for multi staged deployments under one CI job

When using a git repo with a SFDX folder structure + package/xml (in the /manifest folder) gearset dos not take into account elements in the package.xml when checking the option (filter with package.xml)

When reviewing a Comparison with Salesforce as a source or target, include a link to the Setup/Configuration page that is being compared. For example, a link to a Page Layout that the user could click to jump right to the Layout in the appropriate Salesforce environment. There are times when we review Comparisions and need to see the source outside of Gearset and this gets the user there much faster.

The link would appear in the header of the Comparison window, near where "SOURCE" and "TARGET" are listed.

When metadata is retrieved from Salesforce the order of child nodes is not guaranteed and results in false-positive changes when committing to version control. Usually this will be something simple like workflow actions/criteria appearing out-of-order which can be compared manually. However, recently we've noticed entire profiles being committed with every permissions element out-of-order, resulting in a change set with ~20k lines where the actual change is impossible to visualize.

Gearset should provide a feature to 'order' child XML elements alphabetically by name in order to provide consistent commits to version control and eliminate false-positives.

Ability to only deploy the difference between the last 2 commits (incremental build) will dramatically reduce the time to run a CI job

After a deployment to a git branch, gearset allows to create the pull request from Gearset. It would be nice to:
1. Have an option to add the pull request URL to the deployment notes
2. Have the capability of add reviewers (users from the git repo) into the Pull Request

As of now, if you have deletions enabled in a CI job, everything is deleted. It would be great to be able to specify which metadata types you want to include in the deletions since normally you won't need to delete all differences. This would be specially helpful to remove Apex classes and its permissions from profiles.

It would be helpful if in the "Changed On" dropdwn filter if it grouped it into days, rather than the exact time the change was made. Also, if there were preset groupings like "Today","Yesterday","Last 7 Days", etc.

I want to be able to Manage multiple Gearset teams from a single Gearset account, and not have to log out and log in again.
