"Sync environment" automation
On the pipeline, the action of "Sync environment" is currently a manual action. It could be useful to have an automation of this action (like the back-propagation) after each Production Deployment. This step is a little bit time consuming and can be easily missed. If we had an automatic creation of this synchronization PR on each CI Job it would make the processus more fluid.

When cloning a deployment, also clone the test settings
When I'm cloning a deployment, if in the original one I have selected specific test classes, by default have those selected again in the clone.
Often you either need to repeat a deployment, or you'll deploy several times between instances, with the same tests.

Make filter to search through all the components which are hidden under 1st level and expand the components
Can I ask Gearset team to add filter in compared components to search through all the components which are hidden under 1st level (e.g. custom objects or profiles).
For example, in the filter to compare metadata I selected certain custom tab (in the profile the access to the tab was deleted), also selected certain profiles, but serching through the compared metadata list I spent hours and did not manage to find those components for deployment package.
The same is for object access. I selected certain object, selected certain profiles - and again, it's a hard quest to find necessary components…3 votes -
Release Branches
If I create a Release Branch from UAT, I no longer need all the individual Feature branches.
Inspired by Gitflow and the current Gearset Expanded Branching Model.
Currently: The Expanded Branching Model will create a Feature Branch PR to main for every Feature branch that is merged to UAT branch.
Desired: When I create a Release branch from the UAT branch, then Gearset should close all the current Feature Branch PRs to Main Branch - if and only if the Feature branch was already merged to the UAT branch.
This is related to branch pattern matching because…

Add ability to run sfdx force source status command for metadata deployment
It would be great if, when comparing an org to a repository, we could run the status command (sfdx force:source:status) to see the difference between a Salesforce org and the repository.
This command provides a list of files that changed to the user instead of performing a full (and tedious) comparison between the source and the target.
Having a list of changed files would make it easier for a user to see what change they made in an org, make it easier for them to not miss a file and would make comparison so much faster (since you would be…

Link to the Salesforce Validation in Progress from the Pipeline
When I deploy using the standard deploy interface, there is a link that allows me to view the deploy progress in Salesforce.
In pipelines, I would like this same feature. When a deploy has been running for a while, it's useful to know where it is in the process and a quick link would be quite nice.

Branch Pattern Matching
I want to use branch pattern matching to map CI Jobs to specific types of branches in my repository.
main
uat
dev
feature/*
release/*
hotfix/*
chore/*Each of these branch types can have different CI Jobs associated with them. Or in the case of a chore/*, maybe I want those branches to Skip CI Validation because it is an ops branch that doesn't contain any Salesforce components.

Sandbox Deployment With 0 Components
Running a deployment into a Sandbox or Prod that has 0 components is a waste of time and resources.
If a deployment has 0 components in it, either
1. There's a problem because I was expecting greater than zero (so throw an error), or...
2. I want to run tests, and theres a different command for that (I shouldn't be executing a deployment just to run tests).3 votes -
Pipeline CI jobs where deployment is disabled should capture validation job history
If you have a Pipeline CI job configured to be Run Job = disabled; you can still promote PRs and run validations (which is great). But the validation job history is not preserved under the CI job. In fact, AFAIK, it can't be found at all except for the current promotion's vcalidation
This would enable one to diagnose validation fails - perhaps due to problem analyzer automations. It would aid in communicating with support (as such validations could be shared)

Button for 'All the Differences' that gives all additions, deletions, and changes
I'd love to have a button for 'all the things' (new, changed, and deleted). Currently, every time I run a compare, I use the All button and then turn off 'No Difference' on type.

Incorporate Relationship Graph into metadata deployment
Right now is it not possible to deploy Relationship Graph metadata according to https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_relationshipgraphdefinition.htm with Gearset. This metadata is required for the so called Actionable Relationship Center, which is part of Financial Services Cloud. Even though the meta data is available in the Vlocity filter in Gearset, the items we are looking for doesn't fall under that one. If selected, no meta data get retrieved and therefore no deployment happens.

Local Metadata ignored if name collides across an unlocked package namespace
Current Behavior:
During PR validation of an lwc component named "utils", Gearset reports no changes and runs validation against target org with 0 components because there is a Namespaced Unlocked Package in the target that also has an lwc component named "utils". This can be seen in the "Problem Analysis Results" within the Validation Details for the PR.Expected Behavior:
Gearset should not diff my local components against components that are behind a namespace. Even when those namespaced components are in an unlocked package. Perhaps Gearset should treat namespaced unlocked package components more like managed package components.This is related…

Ability to test restoring of backup data periodically
It will be nice to have option to automate and test restoring of backup data periodically into a sandbox. Since it is going to be restoring production data to sandbox, there should be options to restore chunk of production data (due to the storage limitation with sandbox) and the metadata.

Provide and enforce branch naming conventions
Branches get all kinds of really stupid names over time. It would be nice if Gearset provided an option to template new branch names. For example when my users need to create a new feature branch for their user story, Gearset should prefix that branch with 'feature/'. When a release branch is created it should be prefixed as 'release/'. Bugfixes or Hotfixes could be bugfix/ or hotfix/.
Dictating naming conventions is unenforcable. Keeping branch names organized goes a long way to keeping the repository maintainable over long periods of time. Even if folks are well intentioned, git branches are case…

Implement Data migration support for nCino
nCino is a native Salesforce application for banking customers, configured using records, similar to how CPQ is configured. Deploying the data based configuration from environment to environment can be very difficult and painful. This would be a valuable feature for every nCino customer

Ability to see complete history related to a ticket or common name
It would be incredibly useful to have the ability to see a complete history related to a ticket or common name. For example, if I'm working on a Jira ticket named "SALES-123," I would like to be able to see all of the comparisons, branches, deployments, and promotions related to that ticket.
This ability would significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of troubleshooting issues.

Provide Audit Report of Org Connections and Who Access Has Been Delegated To
It would be great if we could pull an audit report that shows all of our Salesforce connections that are set up in Gearset and who has been delegated what level of access to each of them. This would help us to prove out segregation of duty for auditors by showing who has ever had access to deploy to production.

Ignore changes deployed to orgs from Gearset in Data Monitoring jobs
I would like to be able to monitor changes made to tracked metadata in our Production org, but without the "noise" generated from normal deployment changes (made via Gearset deployments). Basically, I want to catch changes made directly to Production that are unaccounted for in source control.

Ability to assign Data Deployment Entitlement through Shared Connections
We have a central Gearset Owner who setup our various orgs using a dedicated Integration User in each org. They then shared the connections with Gearset Users so the credentials remain hidden.
However, this only delegates metadata deployment entitlement, not data deployment. To allow data deployment, a User needs to remove the shared connection and set up the org connection themselves.
Data Deployment Entitlement should be managed as part of the shared connection, as well as Metadata Deployment Entitlement. This will maintain the ability for central management and also keep org credentials secure.
