Hello community,
I'm happy to announce that I released GitBackup Extension 4.1.0 with some nice help from the community (special thanks to Tanguy Parmentier who provided all the localization export functionality). Many thanks for the people who provided feedback allowing this features to be prioritized.
Version 4.1.0 brings several new features to the table:
The documentation was updated and I suggest further reading the release notes and specifically the ones regarding the new Log and prune capabilities.
In addition, the mechanism that cleans the source code is extensible, and most of the entities are editable, allowing you to tweak it to your own usecase.
The Extesion source code is available here:
https://github.com/PTCInc/thingworx-gitbackup-extension
The importable Extension zip files are available here:
https://github.com/PTCInc/thingworx-gitbackup-extension/releases
Special note for people using ThingWorx 9.0: in this version some internal ThingWorx SDK Java methods changed their signature, and this required me to build a special releases for 9.0. The extension I built for 9.0 won't run correctly in 8.4/8.5 and also the reverse.
As such, you will always see two releases for each GitBackup version: one for 9.0 and one for the 8.4/8.5.
My ask for you is the following:
This Extension is licensed under the MIT Licence and is provided as-is and without warranty or support. It is not part of the PTC product suite.
Taking into consideration the statement above:
For OOTB Git support in the ThingWorx platform, please raise a ThingWorx Idea in the PTC Community here https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Ideas/idb-p/thingworxideas
Thank you!
Important note: versions of the GitBackup extension older than (not including) 4.x will not work in ThingWorx versions 9.0 and higher. In this case, please make sure to update your GitBackup extension to the last version, which should be higher than 4.0.0.
