Custom text within automated emails
I simply want to be able to add some lines of text to the emails that are triggered.
In our case this would simply be to let the team know the deployment was complete please proceed with any manual steps for example. In our org this would simply save a step for the release manager to have to trigger an email stating this and be included in the email triggered by gearset.
This functionality might also play out nicely that we could have some more specific text around the test jobs that we trigger. For example, we have thought to…

Error while deploying dashboard component using Changeset / Gearset / ANT
This is a common error received during deployments:
Error: Metric, gauge, or table dashboard component missing indicatorLowColor attribute (line 70, column 33)
This is a suggestion to Gearset team for there feature Deployment analysis if they would pick this error in advance before deployment.
Observation: This issue occurs when the Dashboard is created in Lightning. (I cannot confirm though)
Resolution:
Downloaded package.xml and component
Basically, after I pulled the dashboard metadata from source org, I opened it and found the
<componentType>Table</componentType> tag, and right under it I added this:<indicatorHighColor>#00716B</indicatorHighColor>
<indicatorMiddleColor>#ffb75d</indicatorMiddleColor>
<indicatorLowColor>#C23934</indicatorLowColor>After this change I managed to deploy everything…

Add a validation/warning for when users try to filter only permission set for comparing and deploying
we believe that if we are given the option to filter only permission sets for the comparison, there should be some type of validation ensuring that you are also including dependencies such as custom objects, apex classes etc so that we don't make the assumption that filtering permission sets only in the comparison will include all dependencies

Create a VSTS Build Task for Gearset
VSTS offers the ability to create build definitions to validate/deploy your code, but Gearset customers don't have much options natively in VSTS to trigger a Gearset deployment. We can scan a code repository for changes every 4 hours in order to do a CI deployment-- but that's about it.
VSTS offers the ability for vendors to create "Build Tasks" for their applications, where you can initiate a VSTS build and get results. This is basically a controlled version of API access to the tool.
More information:

Test job triggered by CI job
Test jobs are only configured on time basis. When developer commit some changes and it will be deployed, but tests will be done on a time basis in 2 hours for example, so he should wait to know weather tests are passed or not. Or ask the release manager to run tests manually. So, this feature is must have improvement.

Support grouping of Manage Orgs page
Support the ability to group org credentials on the Manage Orgs page by a new Group Name attribute. In managing multiple clients with dozens of PRD and Sandbox orgs it would be extremely helpful to be able to group and filter related credentials by client. However, to expand this feature to support multiple use cases, providing a new Group Name attribute (text) which could contain any value would be fantastic!
Thanks for your consideration,

Allow a deployment team to update the same draft deployment at the same time or warn the end user of a draft in use by another user
When a dev team work on a shared deployment, it would be nice to work on the same deployment draft, at the same time. At a bare minimum, it would be good to be warned that someone is updating the draft at the same time as you.

Filter standard vs custom objects
We sell a managed package and will never include standard objects in a comparison, and absolutely not in source control. When I'm running a compare against source control to check for changes, it will show all of the standard objects as "custom objects" which is not correct. I should have a way to filter out standard objects from the comparison.

Avoid going to Setup | Deployment status on "validate deployment don't run any tests"
If you are deploying to PROD and
a) You have Apex classes in your deployment
b) You choose Validate Deployment - Don't run any testsThe Validation will fail and Gearset will tell you to check the target org Setup | Deployment Status where as suggested, the most likely cause is test coverage failures.
This is in fact true but it seems that Gearset could warn you before acting on a PROD deployment with non-test apex classes and 'don't run any tests' that this will be guaranteed to occur and give you a chance to reconsider your choice before wasting…

download the zip package at an earlier stage before analysis has taken place
Download the zip package at an earlier stage before the analysis has taken place.
In big Orgs with multiple teams working the analysis page takes sometimes to load so it would be a great addition if we can download the zip package file and modify it.1 vote -
View email templates that are part of a managed package folder in comparison
Hey guys,
I am not sure if this is an actual issue or not but I will ask the question to see if I am missing something :)
When comparing email templates, the compare will return both email templates and folders. I have noticed that in my case, email templates that are part of a managed folder do not return. We can see the folder and sync the folder settings, but no templates. If we move the templates to a non-managed folder we can see the templates. Has anybody encountered anything similar?
Thanks!

Support customer S3 buckets for storage
Allowing customers to specify their own S3 buckets for storage could be beneficial for the product. This would give the customer enhanced security and control over their data.

Access to Critical Updates
We use Gearset as our primary utility for managing various client orgs include Production and Sandboxes for Testing and Release Management. It would be great if there was also a way to access, review and potentially enable/disable any Critical Updates in any org from Gearset.
However, I do understand that Critical Updates may not currently be accessible from the metadata API.
Just a thought,

Page Layout Deletion Not Detected
When I remove a page layout from my Git repository (the file and the package.xml entry) and then do a comparison to an org that it still exists in, Gearset fails to detect a deletion. It doesn't even show up in the All objects tab. It happened to me yesterday and then I just reproduced it now.

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.

Enhanced Comparison filter - filter by difference count
My use-case would somewhat be handled by separating code and xml differences, but I would like to be able to filter on difference count (or at least, easily see / sort by diff count).
For example: We are updating the API version on all of our classes and triggers (about 279 files this go around) and I want to make sure that the API update is the only diff when doing a deployment. Or to be worded differently: only deploy files where the only difference is the API version.

Show status in Chrome tab title
In Chrome, it is possible to display info even when viewing a different tab.
For example, I see this done with financial sites when they want to show the value of a stock ticker symbol.

Check for conflicts on CI
We have a scenario where CI would be useful, but there is a risk of it making destructive changes...
Orgs in involved are Prod, UAT, Dev.
Ideal development path would be Dev->UAT->Prod with each deployment using Gearset.
In the real world, admins make some changes directly in Prod. So, we also need to merge changes back from Prod->UAT to make sure that UAT is a realistic test environment.
It would be great if we could make a CI connection from Prod->UAT which automatically deploys non-destructive changes, and notifies us if a change cannot be sent to UAT for risk of…
