  • 636572 - Deprecation note for support 32-bit

    The current release is the last one to support 32-bit platforms. GitCentric installer will support only 64-bit platforms from the next release onwards.

  • 1114925 - Bad error message when server preop trig blocks Git push

    In earlier releases, if an AccuRev server preop trigger is set and the user doesn't have permission to push the code, GitCentric returned a bad error message. This has been fixed in the current release. Now the user will get the trigger output as the message’s preop trigger error.

  • 1115883 - Add Gerrit email parameters info

    In earlier releases, the Gerrit review & settings URL were sent incorrectly in the mail. This has been fixed in the current release.

The following fix was delivered as part 2017.1-HF1 release:

  • 1109050 - Getting odd error when creating new repo

    In earlier releases, the user received an ambiguous error while creating a new repository with an existing name. Now, the message for the storage write exception has been updated to "Cannot create repository <Repo Name> : Permission Denied."

The following fix was delivered as part 2017.1-HF2 release:

  • 1109336 - GitCentric treats AccuRev elinks the same as slinks

    In earlier releases, after a user commits a change to a file (which is of type symbolic link), no other committed changes could be pushed to GitCentric. This is fixed now.
