Display more workflow subcomponents under Workflow for Metadata filter
Currently, two sub-components display under Workflow when selecting metadata types within a filter.
- WorkflowAlert
- WorkflowRule
There's more sub-components than those two and I'd argue that there's two that are frequently used that should be included for visibility
- WorkflowFieldUpdate
- WorkflowOutboundMessage
There's 2 more, but these may be used less frequently and not needed for visibility
- WorkflowKnowledgePublish
- WorkflowTask

Show/Flag what unlocked package elements are getting updated on Monitoring Jobs
When you look at the details of a monitoring job there is a field called "Packages Afftected" that shows green when is 0 and orange when >0.
There is a description that says...
Unlocked packages have been modified. View the comparison to see details.
However, when you look at the details there is nothing there to see what unlocked package element was modified. So the warning it is not very helpful at all.
Can this be implemented so that the warning is actionable.

The Action Order in the XML should follow the sortOrder
Sometimes there is a difference between a object because the order of the platformActionListItems are different. Sometimes an item with order 0 comes first, but it is possible that an item with 9 comes first. This is probably an error in Salesforce API, but Gearset should order this list before the comparison so 0 will always be the first item.

Improve CI validations jobs - allow incremental comparisons with Github Pull Request/Push Validations
Currently, the only way to validate a branch, push, or pull request is to essentially have gearset pull all metadata from the repository and the org.
This can result in a long wait time for validation. It'd be great if we could have quicker turnaround for users to get feedback after a push/pull request.
Since github/provider of choice would have the exact metadata that changed in the push/pull request, it'd be helpful to only have gearset pull the metadata that actually changed to limit how much time is spent simply pulling all metadata to make the comparison.

Ability to Compare metadata filters
When we have too many metadata filters, it is getting hard to keep track of them and figure out the similarities between them. It would be great to have an option to compare custom metadata filters.

Distinguish between code changes and just API metadata changes for Apex in Comparison Window
For large code comparisons, it'd be great to have the ability to see when it's just a change in API vs. actual differences. Right now, you'd have to click on every row to see what the actual change was.

Mark items as already reviewed earlier
Today we are gearing up for a major deploy so we are deploying many different changes into gitHub. It would be nice to be able to mark whole sections of content as already reviewed such that any new comparison could ignore all of that content. Then we could look at only the new or newly changed/deleted content.

Allow for selecting/unselecting Filter by Package.xml
When doing a clone or a refresh comparison today the ability does not exist to add or remove the option of whether you are filtering by package.xml. I would like to see this added.
For us what might occur at times is that we have a release occur where this is accidentally selected and we find that a number of items are missing and due to this being selected. We have no way to remove the selection and have ended up starting over. One of a number of scenarios where it would be nice to have the option to do…

Warn the user of unsaved changes to an org compare filter
It would be nice if we got a warning if we have selected specific components in a filter but havent saved the filter when we hit OK. I've lost a lot of work on a custom filter because I forgot to hit 'Save' - I would have thought it would auto-save when you hit OK.

Import list of metadata items into org comparison.
When running a comparison, a user should be able to import a list of metadata items based on an agreed format (likely API names). This list would allow the user to save effort from copy pasting api names if they track their changes in an external system. For example, we track changes in our release system within our Salesforce production org. Our manifest items are tracked such as "customobjectc.customfield__c" and have statuses such as new/updated/deleted so we have a historical references of our changes. Being able to import these changes while still having the ability to select…

Allow Downloading of git diff for Comparison
It can be difficult to evaluate the scope of changes by clicking in the Comparison view on one metadata element at a time to see the differences. We would much prefer to be able to download a git diff and examine the delta as a cohesive changeset.
The user should be able to download the contents of the currently selected tab (All Changes, New Changes, or Selected Changes) in the format of a git unified diff. The user can then use the software of their choice to view the diff.
This will also enable more advanced workflows, as git diffs…

Ability to manually hide/filter component differences by single flag
When reviewing comparisons it would be extremely helpful to have the ability to manually 'hide' a component difference (e.g. a single flag to filter out, ignore, or even 'grey' a component differences) once you have a) reviewed the XML and b) determined you do not want to deploy or view that component in a saved draft. I.e. a third state that is not simply 'selected' or 'deselected'.
Current filters by component type, name, et al. don't accommodate for wanting to hide a known component difference (e.g. like an Apex class still under development) so that you can only see remaining…

Provide link from standard field to Standard Value Set
Some of the standard picklist fields in Salesforce have their values defined in Standard Value Sets. This means when you add a new value in the Salesforce UI, for example in the Type field of the Case object, that you are actually editing the CaseType Standard Value Set and not the Case Custom Object.
Gearset detects all these differences, but it isn't obvious why Case.Type appears as unchanged in a Gearset comparison. It would be better if Gearset showed some help text in the Case.Type object definition that pointed me to some help docs or linked me to the exact…

Show Workflow Activities As Dependency of Parent Workflow

Warn if a selected metadata type is not supported by selected API version
In the custom filters dialog, if you select a metadata type that is not supported by the API version, the compare and deploy currently just silently ignores that item, giving the impression that the compare has failed. e.g. selecting "Duplicate rule" with metadata version prior to 38.0.
It would be good for Gearset to provide a warning if a selected metadata type is not supported by the selected API version.

Dependency Engine enhancement for Sharing Rules
Dependencies with sharing rules. Roles/Groups/Fields referenced in sharing rules may be helpful to add as "dependent" on as if they are not in the destination org you cannot deploy.

Scroll to top of category, when switch between All Items, Changed Items etc
Just a user preference item – when you switch tabs (ex: New Objects to Deleted Objects), it doesn’t place you at the top of the window.
So if I scroll down through all the New Objects and then switch tabs to the Deleted Objects, it just places me in the same relative location as I was in the New Objects tab.
It would be nice to have it reset to the top of each window when I switch tabs.

Have the ability to see the metadata comparison between a merge-branch and the destination environment in Pipelines
Greetings,
I would like to request the ability to see the metadata comparison between a merge-branch and the destination environment.
For example, my pipeline is setup:
Developer's sandbox --> QA sandbox --> UAT sandbox --> Production
with the repository branches (merge-branch) for each sandbox respectively:
merge-QA
merge-UAT
mainAfter a feature-branch passes its validation and is merged into the merge-QA, I would like to be able to see the metadata comparison of what is about to get deployed to the 'QA sandbox'. We have the ability to see the contents of the commit via the link to our repository hosting…
