At Appfire, we like to think we get it right every time we release a product. The truth is that from time to time, someone has a great idea to improve our already awesome products, or we have to fix the occasional bug. Take a look at the Release Notes to see what changes we have made for each version of Yet Another Commit Checker.

As of version 3.0.7, the release notes format has changed. Go to the new Release notes page to see the notes for version 3.0.7 and higher.

Description

Version 3.0.7 includes the following corrections:

  • Minor issues regarding the handling of the Jira App field and Exclude Users have been present since v3.0.1. To avoid multiple upgrades, we have included the pre-upgrade preparations from versions 3.0.6, 3.0.5, 3.0.4 and 3.0.1 to version 3.0.7. Because of this, those earlier versions will no longer be available.

If you currently have one of the earlier versions installed, it will continue to work as expected. However, we do encourage you to upgrade to the latest version.

Upgrading to version 3.0.7 involves an app db migration. Customers with a large number of repositories can experience a longer upgrade completion time, up to several hours in some cases. During the upgrade, if the Exclude User field is in use, it will not be applied to a repository until that repository’s settings are migrated. This means that Yet Another Commit Checker will block commits for users excluded from checks if their commits don’t match the rules. Otherwise, the upgrade process runs in the background and will not disrupt other normal operations of the app. Do not interrupt the upgrade process.

Version 3.0.7 includes the following updates previously offered in releases 3.0.1 to 3.0.6:

  • 3.0.6 - To better identify the purpose of the field, the Overridden Username field, located in the YACC Configuration Advanced Options tab, has been changed to Jira Authentication User. Additionally, a brief description of the field has been added. When enabled, this feature allows you to use the Jira account associated with the name entered in the field for Jira requests.

  • 3.0.5 - Addresses an issue with the Overridden username feature. The feature now uses the User ID, rather than the Username. It retrieves the user id associated with the username and replaces that information in the database.

  • 3.0.4 - Introduces support for excluding personal repositories from checks made by Yet Another Commit Checker. This allows organizations to define more rules at the Global level while reducing the number of exceptions encountered by personal repositories that should not be included in those checks.

  • 3.0.1 - Contains a small update to provide fixes related to exclude user functionality.

If you are currently using one of these versions, download version 3.0.7.

 

Version 3.0.6 is no longer available for download. To access the changes provided in this release, download and install version 3.0.7.

Version 3.0.6 changes the Overridden Username field to Jira Authentication User.
