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items are tracked such as "customobjectc.customfield__c" and have statuses such as new/updated/deleted so we have a historical references of our changes.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
When selecting a Workflow Rule, its dependent components (i.e., email alerts) are not shown in the dependency view. They should be.

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.

Deployment version control of Process Builders
This is for Process Builders. Add a feature to allow users to select which version of the process builder to deploy. Similar to what is available for lightning flows. I realize that Process Builders are going away. However, this feature would be helpful as many orgs sill have to manage them.

Customize the columns in the Compare and Deploy view, such as replacing 'Changed By' with 'Created By
Currently we cannot modify or customize the columns in the list view. So if I wish to see the records having created by instead of last modified by then there is no direct option available on UI at 'Compare and deploy'. It is really useful to have the choice over choosing the right columns as per the deployment needs.

Re-introduce last used comparison filter
When I start a comparison, it used to default the filter to the most recently used filter. But now it always shows as "On-Demand Comparison". Can you please restore the previous feature...it's easy to overlook that the correct filter isn't shown and you can waste time doing a comparison against the wrong filter. Adam from your team confirms "Yea that was introduced when we overhauled our comparison tool, you'll need to switch to the filter you want to use each time."

Fix Report/Dashboard Compares to honor RegEx "Include" on folder names (don't return ALL report folders)
Currently, if using regex to include only certain patterns for reports and dashboards, the regex works properly for the reports and dashboards returned, however, it has NO effect on the folder names. The Compare should ONLY return the folder names that match the same regex expressions if there are only include regex'es - it should remove folder names that do not exist in the regex expressions.

give a reminder if I'm leaving out a key piece from my deployment
When deploying a new field, not including any permissions would be strange so a reminder would be great. Think of it as a recipe. If I'm making a pastry and I don't include salt that would be odd so a reminder there would be needed. I might have high blood pressure so there's a reason I don't want to include it but a reminder is helpful. For some deployments its easier to make inferences than others but it's good to starts somewhere.

Side-by-side Conflict Resolution for Non-XML File Types
I would like to see the side-by-side conflict resolution that is available for XML files extended to other file types, especially Apex.

Version Control Commit History in Comparisons
When you compare a version control repo to an environment, it would be awesome to see the commit history get pulled in so you can quickly filter for a specific commit message(s)
