I downloaded the plug in and followed your instruction guide but I don't see any Source Code tab. Do I have to wait for some refresh cycle? Or does this only work with SpiraTeam? TIA Wed, 25 May 2011 15:20:29 -04002011-06-02T20:28:54-04:00/Support/Forum/integrations/version-control/85.aspxthreadId=313David J (adam.sandman+support@inflectra.com)Hello, I have several products to manage with SpiraTeam which are managed trough two differents version control : HG and SVN. I have installed and declared the both plug-in in the servers and in the administration interface but it's apparently impossible to enable the coexistence. Have you an experience of that, is it possible to have two different source codes, one by project?

Thanks Mon, 27 Aug 2012 07:19:10 -04002012-08-27T14:11:51-04:00/Support/Forum/integrations/version-control/353.aspxthreadId=1564David J (adam.sandman+support@inflectra.com)git integration Hello, We've just migrated our source code tool manager from HG to GIT and I've activated the corresponding plug-in. However, I'm noticing that some projects are not up to date....without any logs raised in the "log events" admin page. Could you explain what is the mechanism (actions and frequency) behind the following concept extract from the doc: "The plug-in also performs ‘pull’ requests from the specified remote repository to ensure that the local bare repository remains up to date." Regards.

Added GIT plugin to SpiraTeam, but after configuration on the Source Control page Spira is giving an error: Unable to load the specified Version Control provider. Please check the settings in the Administration section and try again. wondering whether you have any idea what can be wrong? thanks a lot regards, Csaba Tue, 09 Oct 2012 11:05:33 -04002013-03-19T14:04:22-04:00/Support/Forum/integrations/version-control/391.aspxthreadId=725David J (adam.sandman+support@inflectra.com) I'm having trouble setting up my trial SpiraTeam server to interact with our Subversion server. The Subversion server uses the svn+ssh protocol for authentication. After entering the path to the repository, the login and the password, I try going to the Source Code Tracking page, but it displays a spinning busy icon and never advances. I'm quite sure the path and credentials are correct. Is it possible that the plugin does not actually support subversion over SSH?

SpiraTeam works fine and the Git plugin "mostly" works. It successfully browses my Git repository: it can list and download files, and it can associate them to artifacts. When I click on a source file in Tracking -> Source Code, for example 'src/TTCGui/fwd.h', I get the following error: Provider Error: Unable to load the source code provider Source Code File: fwd.h File Path : src/TTCGui/fwd.h File Type (Size): C Header ( 434 KB) Last Edited : 28/03/2014 10.16.18 Author : Massimiliano Ghilardi Latest Revision : df45604d05 And the "Revisions" tab for the source file remains empty. The "Association" tab still works. This happens for ALL source files. Checking the Windows Event Log I found a lot of errors, all similar to this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tipo evento: Errore Origine evento: SpiraTeam Categoria evento: Nessuno ID evento: 0 Data: 07/04/2014 Ora: 10.22.51 Utente: N/D Computer: XP-SPIRATEST Descrizione: In APPLICATION.Business.SourceCode::RetrieveRevisionsForFile: Messages: Could not find file 'src/TTCGui/fwd.h' [APPLICATION.PlugIns.VersionControlArtifactNotFoundException] Impossibile trovare un punto di ingresso con nome 'git_diff_blobs' nella DLL 'git2'.

The installed git2.dll is 32-bit, since SpiraTeam is installed on a 32-bit Windows XP box, and it contains the symbol _git_diff_blobs@36 but does NOT contain the symbol git_diff_blobs I also checked the symbols in 64-bit git2.dll (which I cannot use due to 32-bit Windows XP), and this one DOES contain the symbol git_diff_blobs. Any idea on how to solve this error?

The required files are copied. GitProvider.dll Inflectra.Global.dll LibGit2Sharp.dll git2.dll I built that provider with these parameters: Connection Info: https://github.com/apache/jmeter Belps: (user) Jelsz: (pass) Domain: Custom 01: C:\ProgramData\Inflectra\Spira\GitProvider\githe Connection is successfully created whit these credetials. After that I activate it for project (Project settings successfully updated.) But when im try to listing entries from repo on source code view, i get this error message: Invalid command: The source code repository browser is currently initializing. Please refresh the page and try again. In event log ive got some error: Starting background thread to update Source code Cache GitProvider_2 Unable to retrieve branches for repository C:\ProgramData\Inflectra\Spira\GitProvider\githe Error while running SourceCodeUpdate. this folder: C:\ProgramData\Inflectra\Spira\GitProvider\ - is empty. So we cant use it. Our spirateam version is 5.4.0.1. Would you be so kind and help me to use it? Thanks in advance!

After downloading the Git plug-in (Provider for Git Integration) we have executed the steps in the given manual ( https://spiradoc.inflectra.com/Version-Control-Integration/Integrating-with-Git/ ). We have tested the connection in the scope Version Control Integration . It was displayed that the connection works with our GitLab repository. Unfortunately, if we navigated to the tab Artifacts -> Source Code in SpiraTeam, we obtain the following message: Invalid Operation: The source code repository browser is currently initializing. Please refresh the page and try again. The setup was already checked and we havent found noticable problems. Do you have any idea to solve our problem? Is is possible that this error message coheres with our proxy-server? Thanking you in anticipation.

Were now testing Source Code integration via Git, and it seems to work great. However, I have several questions about this part - since theyre all about the same topic, I will combine them in one thread: 1. Formatting of source code - when previewing source code, we noticed that many file extensions are not recognized, although for example TypeScript files could be formatted like Javascript. Also, I would expect non-recognized files to be just plaintext formatted instead of not shown at all. Is there any way to influence how files with certain extensions are displayed in the preview tab? 2. For traceability purposes, wed like to link Artifacts (requirements and testcases) with Source Code. Use case: since we are using specification-by-example with Gherkin feature files, we consider the feature files to be an extension of our requirements/test cases. Therefore its perfect to be able to link them with those artifacts. I can either create a link from a source file to an artifact, or add a source code attachment to an artifact, accomplishing the same thing. However, when I do this, there is this strange effect where the same source file is automatically added an X number of times to the artifact attachments. If I delete one of these attachments, they are all deleted at once. I wonder what is causing this and if it is a bug or intended behavior. When I add a source code REVISION to the artifact associations, this does not happen. However, in that case I have to specify a branch. When adding a source code attachment, no branch is specified - so I am wondering if the code file is attached once for each existing branch? The fact that when I view the version column, some of the attachments have a different revision, seems to confirm this... Anyone encountered this? Ideally, I simply want to add a source code attachment for ONE branch (Develop or Master). Is this possible? 3. Is it possible to limit the source code synchronization in general to only one or a specified set of branches? We use GitFlow, and in general, most branches we use are short-lived and considered draft code. We typically want to have the Spira artifacts linked with one single Develop or Master branch. Is there any way to limit the branches Spira knows about ? 4. The attachment links mentioned in 2 dont seem to be retrievable via custom Report queries, and will not show up in the Attachment tables (neither will ArtifactAssociations have the links between Source Files and other artifacts). It would be a benefit to be able to include certain kinds of Source Code files into a document (like said Gherkins). Does anyone know if there any other way to do this? Apart from using the REST interface and build your own custom solution? Tue, 01 Sep 2020 12:37:05 -04002020-09-02T21:31:49-04:00/Support/Forum/integrations/version-control/2210.aspx
