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.

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…

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.

Global Search feature
It would be very useful to have a Global Search feature within Gearset. This would be used to search the contents of all metadata objects.
My use case is that sometimes a string has been hardcoded inside a function. The only way to find the function that contains the string is to manually trace through the code. The global search would indicate the function that contains this string.
Another benefit would be to track dependencies for metadata objects that don't support dependency tracking. For example Aura Components, we could search for the component name.

Display Deployment Status Progress
In the past in Gearset, you were able to see the status of your deployment (e.g. 100/200 test classes, etc.) very similar to how you would see the native status tracker on the Deployment Status page within Salesforce Setup. It appears this feature is no longer available in Gearset and there is no status until the deployment complete. It would be great to bring this back to Gearset, so the tool provides the full deployment scope. Since this has been removed, I now have to open an additional page to monitor progress in Salesforce.

Exclude specific Classes from Scheduled Unit Tests
Some Testclasses only run successfully, when the Org is connected to a Backend Application. Usually sandboxes for Development are not connected to the Backend. These are the Orgs, that we need to watch. It would be useful to exclude specific Classes on specified Environments from being tested in scheduled Unit Tests.

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…

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.

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.

Display which apex triggers have low code coverage if a deployment fails
It would be great if Gearset can surface which Apex trigger has 0% code coverage when a deployment fails.

Provide option to disable parallel apex testing in Scheduled Tests
Scheduled Test runs can fail due to UNABLETOLOCK_ROW errors. This is due to what amounts to a bug in SF: accessing public custom settings in tests which are run in parallel can cause deadlocks. Really, the tests ought to be isolated from each other, but they are not. See:
The workaround in SF is to disable parallel apex testing.
If Gearset could do that during the scheduled test run, it would prevent false test failures.
I guess I could change the option on the SF org, but sometimes parallel testing is useful, so I wouldn't want to…

Remove files from a PR
I want the ability in Gearset to selectively remove files from a branch or PR without running another comparison.
I have an admin that frequently "over commits" too many things.
Often its bad enough that its just easiest for them to delete the branch in github then start over in gearset.
The problem then is that starting over from scratch, a day or two since they worked on it, and they will make a different mistake.
I'm aware of a few features, like

Cleanup Layout Assignments
When you rename a Layout, the previous Layout Assignment won't be cleaned up on the Profile.
This should be cleaned by the Repo dependency cleaner.8 votes -
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…

Expose Salesforce Validation Errors within Github PR
Currently when a PR Validation fails (Deploy CI Job with Validate Target setting turned on), the user can click the Gearset "Details" link to go into Gearset to see the exact error.
Many of our devs use VS Code and Github for their daily work and only rely on Gearset for the CI job. Having them jump into Gearset just to see the error is time consuming and not very intuitive for them. Sure we can find the same errors within the target org of the CI, but at that point the list of validations is large and it's hard…
