Trust Site
Right now, Gearset is down and we cannot use it. It would be good to have a trust.gearset.com site that shows what is going on and what the team does to fix the issue...

would be cool to be able to "ignore" certain differences
would be cool to be able to "ignore" certain differences... e.g. encryption. So if encryption is enabled in a Production Org but not in a Sandbox (not sure if Encryption is possible for SBs), you have a difference for every custom field <encrypted>true/false</encrypted> which is really irritating.

Allows admins to limit the available branches of a repository
When connecting a source code control system, quite often an integration user account is used that may also be used for other parts of the enterprise. Please allow admins to restrict the available repositories and branches so that users can only run comparisons for the branches they should actually have access to.

Improve PermissionSet comparisons by providing an option to ignore fieldPermissions when their editable/readable are set to false
Current Metadata Behavior:
When a new object is added, objectPermissions are only added to a PermissionSet only if one of allowCreate, allowDelete, allowEdit, modifyAllRecords, viewAllRecords are set to true
When a new field is added, the new fieldPermission is added to all PermissionSets by default (with editable and readable set to false).
NB. PermissionSets are additive in behavior and can only open up access not revoke. Values of false have no meaning and are only noise.Current Gearset Comparison Behavior:
Comparing PermissionSets show these new fieldPermssions as New Items even when default values for editable, readable are set to false.…9 votes -
Add deployment support for Macros
Macros deserve to be added to source control yet there is no way to do this with Gearset:
1) Data feature (paid add-on) doesn't deploy to/from source
2) PRO/Enterprise can't source/target deploy Macros because it is not available with the Metadata API.Since macros represent some debugged logic, managing in source control makes sense. Curiously, SFDC has chosen to make Documents available via Metadata API but not Macros

Add an auto-save feature while building deployment packages
As Gearset is run through a web browser, if the browser happens to freeze while a package is being built, you don't have the opportunity to save it as a Draft Deployment. An auto-save feature would allow someone to pick up where they left off, or when the last auto-save was done, without having to start from scratch.

Allow for selecting which repositories to display for github in org settings.
It would be helpful to be able to select repositories to display in the selection under Manage Orgs. Some of our repos in Github aren't related to Salesforce deployments, and filtering those out so they don't even show in the list would be really helpful in getting to selections faster.

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…

Reuse Deployment Package (clone) should use sticky "Source Repository"
Use case:
1. Compare and deploy from repo-R/master to org A
2. Clone deployment from repo-R/master to org BUnfortunately, when the clone deployment displays the dialog "Reuse Deployment Package"...
a) When you select GitHub, the dialog doesn't default the repository to Repo-R but instead displays a picklist of all possible repos the running user has access to (in our case that is 100+)
b) Better would be to remember in cookie the repo the developer last used and default to that choice so scrolling through 100 items is not necessary.3 votes -
Show # differences found in comparison display
It would be a nice feature to see the number of differences for each item from the perspective of the source org vs target org.

When a Picklist Populates, Don't Default to the 1st Value, Default to Blank
When I choose my destination, the system defaults the picklist to the first item on the list. Instead it should populate the list but don't pick a value.
For example, when I choose destination = BitBucket, it then takes a moment to load available branches. It takes a little bit so I go on and start to configure the metadata types. Meanwhile, Gearset populates the list and sets the value to the 1st branch on the list, in my case, feature/helpdesk. It should leave the value blank and make me pick.
This has resulted in me running long-running comparisons, and…

Be able to switch the direction of a comparison/deployment
Sometimes we need to reconcile changes on an object between two orgs, where some of the changes have been made in Org1 and some in Org2. Having set up metadata filters, compared and deployed required changes from Org1 to Org2, it would be nice to be able click a button to switch direction to then deploy required changes from Org2 back to Org1, without having to go through the whole process of setting up a new comparison.

CI job status "deploying" - add dateTime
UX suggestion:
On the CI jobs page...Currently - you see last run dateTime followed by "deploying...." if a job is currently in progress
Suggestion: Add the dateTime when job started so user can gauge when job should finish and set expectations accordingly
For example, in our shop, a CI job should take around 20 minutes - but if you can;t tell when it started, you can't gauge when it will finish and plan your work accordingly

Ability to copy Territory models from one org to another

Show filtered counts on the results grid tab titles
When comparing two orgs. We need to show the eaxact number in the Tabs(Changed Items, New Items) when filtered.

Display "Metadata comparison (custom) filter" used on "Comparison in progress" -screen
Hi! I just started to evaluate Gearset. Looking good. When I was staring at "Comparison in progress"-screen this came to my mind:
Sometimes it takes a bit longer than expected and I start to think: "OMG - What custom filter I used? - Probably I'm comparing everything - That's why it takes so long - Maybe I should cancel this job?".
It would be more reassuring if the Metadata comparison (custom) filter being used was also shown on that "Comparison in progress" screen.

Allow comparisons of a single commit from a VCS
Currently, you can select a VCS repo and branch to use for comparison. It'd be great if you could select a specific commit from that branch, so that you're only looking at an atomic set of changes. This would allow for fine-grained comparison and deployment of changes.

FogBugz integration for Gearset
We'd LOVE a FogBugz integration for Gearset similar to the new Jira Integration.

Enforce code coverage limits on CI jobs
Please set it so that we can force a code coverage check on deployments (including CI). I'd like to verify on the lowers before going through to production. Might be able to do this with test cases but should be able to on deployment.
