Why does Sourcetree show line difference when there isn't one?
Asked by jwright:

Looking at a changed file from my git repo in Sourcetree, it has some legitimate changes in it. But when I compare versions of the file and look in the Sourcetree 'differences' pane, it is showing a line that (I believe) was unchanged. It show a red -, and green + for the same line #23, with the same text, same number of spaces, etc:

I guess my question is: why is this marked as a "difference"? Thanks for the help!

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

It could be that there is a white space change on that line. You can set it to ignore white space by clicking on the cogwheel above the diff window.

comments: author: jwright
body: Thanks [@Mikael Sandberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853579) for the prompt reply! I thought it might be whitespace, but the two lines seem to have exactly the same number of characters and whitespace. But, indeed, if I check the ignore whitespace option, the questionable lines disappear. Thanks for the tip. Still bothers me a little bit, but thanks!

Cant add an account to sourcetree
Asked by Max Chiappa:

Hey all, im new to source tree and have tried to follow these two videos for setting up Sourcetree with UE4

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74OfLMutOHE\&t=131s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74OfLMutOHE&t=131s)

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbyawFZ1Rz4\&t=60s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbyawFZ1Rz4&t=60s)

I downloaded the latest version only to find out there was no option to sync up with my atlassian account, so I ended up downloading an older version 2.6.10

Now, whenever I try it says:

Authentication failed

body: Hi Max, welcome to the Community!

I understand that you're having difficulties getting started with Sourcetree. What do you mean when you say there's no option to sync up with your Atlassian account? The registration with the Atlassian account is one of the first steps as this is needed for the complete installation of Sourcetree. Can you try with the newest version again and send us a screenshot of what happens?

Best regards,

Ana

body: I managed to fix it by syncing it with a bitbucket account, since altassian account isnt an option anymore, only bitbucket and bitbucket server.

However I am not presented with another issue. I can not push my commit and cant find out why. under most videos people usually have a master check box to select, while mine is empty... Pushing it does absolutely nothing![Screenshot (98).png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/68258iFFED9AA3AC390EB4/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot (98).png")
Develop now feature branch?
Asked by jlfraser:

I'm using SourceTree with GIT flow enabled. Initialisation of the repo for git flow was done using just the defaults

* I had a feature branch which was "merged" back into Develop.
* After the commit, finished the feature using normal GIT flow finish feature and delete feature branch, merge into develop
* this was then pushed back to the remote bitbucket repository
* looking at the remote repo the the commit does not show as a merge
* on the local repo when I try to start at new feature branch it thinks Develop is a feature branch. And give the finish feature option

I have tried removing (renamed the folder to keep files) the local repo, and pulling down a fresh copy. however it still is the same, so I assume I've affected the remote repo with whatever strange state.

Kinda confused about how I got in to this state, and have no idea how to fix the problem.

I'm still newish to sourcetree.

TIA

John.

Unable to change date on create event window
Asked by Lori Milam:

I am trying to add an event to a Confluence calendar that spans an entire week and crosses months, but I am unable to change the date on the create event window. There is no calendar from which to choose the date in the "When" field and I cannot type over the dates here. This only seems to happen in Chrome. It works fine in other browsers.

It also isn't consistent. Other colleagues are able to select from a calendar fly out in Chrome.


Answers:

body: [@Lori Milam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3998050) I would suggest clearing your cache. Sometimes the cache will cause issues as the cloud product gets updated.

comments: author: Lori Milam
body: Thanks [@Brant Schroeder](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/769100) , but this was actually resolved by Atlassian as a bug. The dropdown for the calendar would not work if the zoom of the screen was not at 100%. In our case the users had their zoom set at 90%. Once they changed it to 100% it worked. There was an existing bug <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-76530> which Atlassian fixed so it shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Do we need Confluence cloud Premium plan to edit the workflow with Workflow builder?
Asked by Smitha Medabalimi:

I have Confluence Cloud standard plan, and I can't see change workflow button, nor I am not able to edit the workflow.

Do I need to have Confluence cloud Premium plan to get these options?


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hello [@Smitha Medabalimi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5401200) and welcome to the community.

As Confluence doesn't really have a workflow functionality, do you mean Content Labels as seen in the screenshot?

If not, you may be using a marketplace app such as Workflows for Confluence by AppFox or one of Comala document management apps by Appfire.

If it's the apps, you may want to get in touch with the vendors' support, I can testify they're both great. Before you do that, ensure that you have the necessary **permissions** to change the settings.

Both content labels and apps that I mention work with Standard (or Free) Confluence, but some settings may be subject to permissions.

Hope this helps.

Anyone have any idea why is this happening?

Thank you!


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Shree Jantre](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5409589) it could be a one of many different issues. If you are trying to upload a file larger than what the server allows that could be the issue. You should check with your admin and see if that could be it.

I would suggest also seeing if your server has a proxy. It could also be causing an issue or a time out.

I am assuming that you already tried clearing cache and using a different browser.

Answers:
author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Nicolas Goutte](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5418947) ,

You can edit the Table Spreadsheet macro. And the Table Spreadsheet Include macro allows you to use cell ranges from the Table Spreadsheet macro as excerpts in other Confluence pages. Changing the source Table Spreadsheet will dynamically change corresponding excerpts on other pages.

The content of Table Spreadsheet Include is not available for editing, only the source Table Spreadsheet can be edited.

Please visit our [documentation page](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-table-spreadsheet-include-macro-129895787.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) to make sure how exactly the Table Spreadsheet Include macro works.

Can you pull certain data fields from Confluence to Jira and update them automatically ?
Asked by Inerta Mushi:

Can you pull certain data fields from Confluence to Jira and update them automatically when I change something in Confluence?

I have a table in confluence:

I am not aware of anyway to update Jira issues with information from Confluence. Even Confluence automation only allows you to create Jira issues. Confluence automation does allow you to send web requests so technically you could use the Jira API but I am not sure how you would identify the content on the page that you would use to update the Jira issue.

Jira is a work tracking tool. In that regard it can be used to track the work related to defects. It does not have native functionality specific to the needs of tracking Test Cases, but there are third party apps that can be added to provide specialized functionality for that.

Jira has some native reporting capabilities.

Confluence may not be necessary, but it really depends on what you requirements are.

How do I make Confluence be less distracting while reading?
Asked by Erik Lettang:

When parked on a page, every few seconds Confluence pulses the "Create+" button. It is distracting while I'm reading. How do I make Confluence stop doing that and just sit quietly?


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: [@Erik Lettang](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5173231)

Interesting, I've never experienced the flashes (but I've customized the top bar so the + Create button is white :) )

Anyway, if you want to hide Confluence 'roadside furniture', you can use an app that creates a 'skin' over your site or a dedicated site just for reading the content (Scroll Viewport, Spacecraft, Karma, Aura, Mantra, Refined...). Some are actually free.


author: Linh Pham_Ricksoft_Inc
body: Hello [@Erik Lettang](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5173231)

while I'm unsure what might trigger the "Create+" button behavior you described, I'd suggest reading the page in presenter mode to ensure distraction-free.

Otherwise, collapsing the sidebar usually works well for my reading experience as well
