Differentiate XML and Code differences in the comparison
I would find it very useful if the comparison result highlighted if the difference was in the XML or the Code (or both) for each item. This would especially save time when there are a lot of differences.
7 votesThanks for the suggestion Celio.
We think this should be possible to do and are doing some background work into how to manage and display this. More details to come soon.
Thanks,

Specify tests to run on the test monitoring jobs
Some of my orgs have many tests, and I don't always want to run all of them on a daily basis. Being able to specify which tests are run daily would be great.

Add ability to exclude specific files/folders of repo from a compare with source control
Currently, if you try to compare a repository to a Salesforce org, it will throw an error with only the ability to send a report to Gearset if the repository contains files that are not compatible (gulp files, package.json, etc. at the root of the repo or any folder that isn't corresponding to a Salesforce type of file).
My suggestion would be to add the ability for the user to exclude those files or folders from the compare and retry when it fails. This issue currently prevents us to use source control in the comparisons.

Automate Jira Status when a Pull Request is created in Pipelines
Presently, the capability to automatically update the Jira Status of a ticket is limited to transitions occurring between different environments in Pipelines. Enhancing this functionality to include automated updates triggered by the creation of a Pull Request would prove beneficial, eliminating the need for manual intervention when transitioning to stages such as "Code Review."

Invoke Run Anonymous Apex against target in CI Job
Team,
Can you please add Run Anonymous Apex option in a CI Job ?Step#1
In this scenario from Developer's end they should add pre scripts in a.txt file and add post scripts in b.txt file in their Source ControlStep#2
How it should work
- It should allow the CI job to run Pre and Post Deployment scripts
- Pre Deployment scripts should be picked up from Source control a.txt file and Post
Deployment scripts should be picked up from Source control b.txt file
- Post commit the diff of commit should identify what are pre and post scripts…6 votes -
Share edit access to a CI job with another user
Currently, only the owner of a CI job is able to edit it. This is a risk, as the owner is not always available to troubleshoot CI issues. It would be helpful to be able to delegate edit access to other team members so that pipelines can be managed collaboratively.

Expand the options for "Run job" times on the continuous integration job setup.
Currently the "Run job" option has times for 1, 2, 4 and 24 hours. With international teams working on projects, it would be nice to allow for something like every 8 hours. That could either be a new set option in the list, or allow for a "custom" option. If the pipelines can handle between 1 and 24 hours, let us selection "custom" and input the hours for the job interval to run.

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.

Add the option to schedule weekly, monthly and yearly backups
To meet our backup compliance requirements I'd like to suggest an option to schedule weekly, monthly, and yearly backups to go along with the daily backup option that is currently available. This way, we could setup multiple backup tasks with different retention.
Thanks

Allow for Scheduled Comparisons
Like Monitoring Jobs, allow users to choose a source, target, and metadata filter, and schedule when a comparison runs.
The primary goal of this would be time savings. To have that data already retrieved and cached so you can go in, make your selections, and move toward deployment more quickly. Possible applications include recurring deployments, planning out your workday, etc. This addition would be for non-Integration users.

allow selecting of specific picklist values when deploying changes to picklist fields
Essentially would like to be able to cherry pick the values for a picklist value that is being deployed from a lower sandbox. Basically what you did with Precision Layout deployment for page layouts. There are times when we do not want to deploy all of the new/different values for a picklist field.

In Azure Repositories, maintain owner when changing PR to gs-pipelines
When dealing with Azure Repository, the owner of the gs-pipeline PR is always the user used for authentication. Any way to include the original owner would be helpful since the messaging is lost this way

Allow delegated users to edit environment variables
My user is setup on our CI and I have a number of environment variables setup on Custom Labels for ID's.
Whilst this works great the main issue is if I am Sick/On Holiday there is no way for someone else to go in and add/edit the environment variables thus making me a single point of failure/Reference.
What would be great would be either have Environment Variables setup at a CI level and delegated users have the ability to go in and edit/create new ones against the CI (This would ensure only those that know what they are doing are…

Inline editing of metadata
The idea above was "closed" due to Environment Variables.
That feature is too fiddley for our use case as the change that needs to be performed is not consistent. Furthermore, that feature does not help with handling merges.
Gearset has some merging capabilities, but it only allows to select one file or another, instead of merging changes from both files.
I'm aware it is possible to perform merges from source control, though it would be easier to train our team if they did not have to learn another technology. Furthermore, it leaves the process to more faults as the…

Pipeline automatic back promote
When using pipelines, it would be helpful to have the option to automatically back promote changes through the pipeline. For example, we currently have a CI job that pushes specific changes that admins are allowed to make directly in production into our master branch. We then have a Github Action that automatically merges commits to our master branch to the other branches in the pipeline, so that everything is synced. However, in order to turn on pipeline, we have to turn off our automated merge action, because pipeline creates a bunch of PRs when the automation runs. This forces someone…

Automate Salesforce org connection on sandbox refresh
When we refresh our sandbox orgs, we have to reconnect the gearset user, would it be possible to use JWT to auto connect to the org?

xml formatting support for Illuminated Cloud
I would like to see support in the 'XML quote escaping style' for Illuminted Cloud (and potentially other IDE Vendors)
I am struggling currently as my Admins use gearset for source control commits and my developers use Webstorm and Illuminated Cloud which causes conflicts (generally with the utf/UTF issues but some others as well around validation rules and some formula fields).
Ideally, If a team standardizes around one IDE then all they have to do is come in to that setting and set it to what the IDE does as a default and then you wouldn't get any conflicts with…6 votes -
I would like to be able to deploy directly from environment variables.
This feature would allow me to setup each sandbox environment after doing a refresh from production.

Add a 'flag' to ignore XML 'utf' versus 'UTF' in XML header.
I believe there exists a mismatch with the XML header reference to UTF in the Gearset library to what is used in SFDX.
