More granular permission settings for sub groups of a large team
Giving team owners/leaders the ability to define sub groups of team members and control their ability to deploy to certain environments.
For example not being able to connect to/make deployments to 'production' orgs.10 votes -
Throw Error When Invalid Test is Entered
When entering test class names in the text field, invalid entries can be added without any indication that there is something wrong, which would lead to uncovered code and most likely a failed deployment. For example, entering in ThisIsAnInvalidTestName would not result in any error.

Provide ordering for metadata elements when committing to version control
When metadata is retrieved from Salesforce the order of child nodes is not guaranteed and results in false-positive changes when committing to version control. Usually this will be something simple like workflow actions/criteria appearing out-of-order which can be compared manually. However, recently we've noticed entire profiles being committed with every permissions element out-of-order, resulting in a change set with ~20k lines where the actual change is impossible to visualize.
Gearset should provide a feature to 'order' child XML elements alphabetically by name in order to provide consistent commits to version control and eliminate false-positives.

Allow complex filters and child relationships on filters for data loading
Allow complex filters and child relationships on filters for data loading. For example, filter the Account to only load if the Owner is an Active user in the system.

Allow Monitoring Jobs on Source Code Repositories
Currently, Enterprise users can create monitoring jobs on sandboxes, so that they may be notified when a sandbox's metadata changes. It'd be great to be able to perform the same monitoring action against source code repositories (GitHub!).
An example use case would be detecting when undesired metadata types enter into the repository. This is important because CI jobs will fail on certain metadata types, so we want to ensure that they never make it into source to begin with. Additionally, our business has decided that some metadata types should never be captured into source.

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.

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.

Automatically revert PR in GitHub CI Jobs
When a CI job fails, the bad code remains in the GitHub repo. I'd like to see a way to revert the commit/PR that caused that failure so that any CI jobs for new, unrelated, commits/PRs won't fail while the developer is working to resolve the issue.

"Changed on" date on source control side of comparison does not show
We have no way of knowing when the files were last changed on the source control side. Tried only with BitBucket though.
10 votesThat is something we should definitely show. We’ve added it to our investigation list to see if it can be added into the app.
Thanks,

Ability to automate deployment to a particular environment without manually promoting changes
When there are multiple Salesforce environments in the deployment pipeline, like Integration, Qa, Stage and Production, we would like to have ability to automate deployments to a specific environment, without having to select PR and promote changes manually. Most of the times SIT/Integration environment will be used for Developers to be able to perform integration testing, where we do not want someone like a Lead to review and promote PR manually. It will be beneficial to deploy the changes automatically, as soon as someone creates the PR to the Integration environment.

Introduce Import/Export feature for Custom Filters
Expose the underlying JSON/XML for Custom Filters so that we can export it, modify it in a text editor either by hand or with python scripts, then load it back into the custom filter.
For example I have my main CI filter with 50ish metadata types, and every other filter is a subset which I establish by cloning the "master" filter and deselecting metadata types. Whenever I make a change to the master filter I am forced to nuke all the the "detail" filters and recreate them off the master using the above approach.
So many clicks. My preference would…

extend the GearSet public API to include Data deployments between Sandboxes and Scratch Orgs
Allow triggering Data deployments via the public API to eliminate having to sync data manually. This also includes triggering creation of Scratch Orgs via the Gearset API so that Gearset can instantly recognize them them.
The workflow we would like to automate is: feature branch is checked out which triggers a CI/CD system pipeline to create a corresponding scratch org, do a metadata deployment from a test sandbox, and sync data from the same test sandbox. This allows us to create on-demand full copies of the environment for purposes of E2E testing (inc. external integrations) and feature development that requires…

Option to ignore: <personAccountDefault> in XML
When comparing XML for RecordType permissions in Profiles, some Sandboxes return:
<personAccountDefault>true</personAccountDefault>As part of the XML, even though person accounts are not enabled, this makes comparing annoying.
It would be nice to have an option to ignore this.

Add a Select All that works on filtered items when setting up filters
When setting up the filters, I would like the ability to do a Select All on just the filtered items so that I don't have to manually select each one of them. This would be a huge time saver.

Allow searching Monitoring of a system by a specific record of metadata to see all the dates that the record changed
If I need to find when a specific thing was changed in our system, my only option is either to use the last edited date or to manually check every daily comparison from Monitoring to see if it changed. Since many metadata types do not reliably update the last edited date, it makes it much harder to find those changes. If I could choose a specific metadata record and use that to search the Monitoring to see when it changed, it would be much easier to find it.

View Grouped Successful, Validated, and Monitor Jobs per Instance in List
Our organization has now done over 13,000 deployments (yay!), but that means when I have to search for past deployments, any searching beyond 10 days as the filter becomes an impossible task because of the sheer volume that has to be searched (boo).
When trying to combine successfully deployed packages into a new package, if I have to change the date range to find a deployment done several months ago, I lose the selected deployments from a more recent timeframe and can't select them all to combine neatly.
If we could see successful deployments by viewing the authorized Org in…

Email notification selection: none, success, failed deployemnts
In account settings allow me to choose what kind of notifications I want to receive to my email.
[ ] Send me success deployments notifications
[ ] Send me failed deployments notificationNo selection means do not send any notifications.
Why? With many deployments my email is bombarded with notifications. Last two weeks 65 emails which I do not read as I see status on screen. Therefore I want to turn off those notifications.

Allow custom rules in PMD
PMD support is great, but it would also be useful to be able to have a set of custom rules for my team
e.g. we have a code library of classes that they ought to use instead of coding their own solutions every time. Some of these cases could be spotted by a PMD rule, so it would be great to be able to add my own rules for this.
