XML Editor

• You can create new tags from the contextual menu in the Git History view. Also, there is now a toolbar action in the Git Staging view to list all the tags. Tags from the local repository can be deleted or pushed to the remote repository.
• You can stash uncommitted changes locally so that you can use other Git operations in the meantime. You also have options to re-apply or delete stashed changes.
• Added a Merge "SELECTED_BRANCH" into "CURRENT_BRANCH" action in the contextual menu for local branches in the Git Branch Manager view.
• Added a Revert commit action in the contextual menu for commits from the Git History view. It creates a new commit that reverts all the changes from the selected commit.
• Added an Open working copy version action to the contextual menu for resources associated to a revision in the Git History view.
• Added a Reset file to this commit action to the contextual menu for resources associated to a revision in the Git History view. It checks out the selected version of the file.
• After a repository that contains submodules is cloned, all submodules are also automatically initialized and cloned.
• When pulling the remote changes for a repository that contains submodules, the submodules are updated as well (by default). This behavior depends on the Update all submodules after pulling changes from the remote repository option from the Git Client preferences page in Oxygen.
• If a submodule appears as changed in the Unstaged files area, you can open it using the Open action from the contextual menu.
• The tooltip shown for a modified submodule from the Unstaged files area now presents information about the currently and previously tracked commits.
• Branches created from other local branches are now automatically checked out. This behavior can be disabled by deselecting the Checkout branch option in the Create branch dialog box.
• You can view the history for a file or directory from the Project view. When showing the history for a directory in the affected files section, the files that are descendants of the directory are presented on top and the files that are outside it are grayed out.
• A message prompt is now displayed if you try to switch the branch while there are uncommitted changes so that you can confirm that you want to stash the changes or move them to the new branch.
• A warning message is now displayed when trying to use the "Mark as resolved" action on a file that contains conflict markers.
• A new ${git(working_copy_url)} editor variable can be used to return the location of the working copy directory in the form of a URL.
• When hovering the cursor over the Pull and Push buttons, the displayed tooltip now shows information about some of the incoming/outgoing commits (such as the date, author and message).
• When hovering the cursor over a branch name, a tooltip is displayed that provides information about the last commit performed on that branch (such as the author and the date of the commit).
• The highlight boxes that surround branches and tags are now styled differently so that it is easier to identify which represents a branch and which represents a tag.
• The settings in the Git client preferences page can be saved at project level. The project can then be shared with other users and everyone will have the same Git client settings.
• The Git Staging side-view now has a cleaner look.
• Added support for Dutch language localization.
• Integrated various bug fixes, component updates, and performance enhancements.
