I would expand my request to if a sort has been applied to *any* column other than Name, apply a secondary sort to "Name" so the rows always
If a sort has been applied to any column other than Name, apply a secondary sort to "Name" so the rows always sort alphabetically by Name.
This is most useful when sorting by Metadata Type, I'd like the results to be grouped first by Metadata Type, but then I'd like to see the results sorted alphabetically by their name.
Even if the user is sorting by Changed On, for example - if there are 100 fields all deployed on the exact same date/time (ex. Mar 26, 2025 1:19pm), you might as well sort them alphabetically by Name as well

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.

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)

Multiple screens
I work with 2-3 screens. It would be great to be able to split the comparison settings to one screen and have the xml, flow navigator, lightning page visualizer,... on another screen. That way users can see more as they work. As a photographer I use Adobe photoshop and lightroom both applications allow splitting the controls and output.

Cancel Comparison
I would like to be able to cancel comparison jobs so that I can totally reset the metadata selections and run it at a different time instead of making the modifications during its run time and possibly taking longer because of the changes.

Auto navigate to next conflict after resolve
After I have resolved a file/metadata component I would like it to auto navigate to the next item in the list.

Picklist Comparison should show if value is active/inactive
When comparing a picklist in which we have deactivated values, the simplified comparison visualization shows the deactivated values as being "added" (in green, on the source side).
The XML reveals <isactive>false</isactive> is being added, but the simplified view seems to suggest new values are added instead

Use location of metadata in source branch or local folder when adding to target branch
When adding a file from a branch or local folder (source) to another branch (target) not having the file, use its location in the source as the location in the target.
Currently all new files are placed in the default folder [1].
Let's assume a new file, "HelloWorld.cls", in the source is located in .../force-app/main/default/classes/special/ and that class doesn't exist in the target. When the deployment is complete the file should exist in the target's .../force-app/main/default/classes/special/ folder, matching its location in the source. Currently it would be placed in .../force-app/main/default/classes/.

Add support for CMS Collections
Please add support for CMS Collections in the comparison filters as well as the deployments and CI jobs.
We're working with CMS Collections in our current developments of a customer community and we'd like to deploy this metadata as well.1 vote -
Vlocity Metadata Types collapse during Compare & Deploy
When you start the Compare & Deploy, for Salesforce Objects, you see all the metadata types broken out as they get completed for 204 types. For Vlocity there are 83 types to select, but when you run the comparison, it collapses to just 1 type of Vlocity. It should show progress similar to hwo the Salesforce Metadata types work

Allow XML comparison to be exported
Being able to extract the XML for the change and the target's differences would allow us to analyze and track label/code changes versus just ordering or location changes.
My issue is similar to the "Enhance XML meta data comparison to ignore changes in XML order" and "Export Comparison details all items" and "Allow download of XML files from the comparisons page"

Search with components returned by metadata comparison
Performing a search across the returned components xml would be helpful. In our org we add a JIRA ticket reference to the Description - having the ability to search for the ticket number string would help narrow the list.

Ability to move existing field to be under another section on layout
If I have multiple sections on my layout.
I have a specific field under one layout section, but now I changed the layout so the field no is moved to another section.
Now I can't do that because the compare and deploy forces me to override the existing section where the field is under.
My intention is to move the field place to be under another section and not delete the other layout section1 vote -
Add exclusion filters for Pipelines
Currently, the metadata filters in pipeline (CI) jobs are either all of a type of metadata, or a defined subset. There is no option to include all, except for a couple of objects, which is oftentimes required.
Please consider adding a negative (exclusion) filter for CI jobs, in addition to the existing positive (inclusion) filters.1 vote -
Include DataWeaveResource in comparisons and deployments
DataWeaveResource has been around for a few releases and is deployable via the Metadata API, but is not supported by Gearset yet. Please include this.

Persist Selection to Include/Exclude Managed Packages in Compare 2.0
When using the new compare, the default is to exclude managed packages. However, we'd like to always include them, so it would be nice to persist the selection from one compare to the next.
