GIT LFS - Post-Merge hook not working?
Asked by jrobe:

Hello,

I'm currently in the process of implementing my own git-lfs server using Sourcetree as the main GUI to work with it. I noticed LFS support in 2.2 and got very excited because I've been having huge issues with repository size.

So anyway, I've successfully implemented the server, and everything seems to be working great, except that when a file is pushed using GIT LFS on a different clone it's never pulled until I do a manual git-lfs pull through the menu (Repository-\>GIT LFS-\>Pull LFS Content). I understand that git-lfs is still essentially in Beta; but I believe that there needs to be an addition to sourcetree for LFS enabled repositories for either a separate pull button for GIT-LFS, or for the Pull button to automatically do a git lfs pull after it's completed the regular git pull.

Or, am I wrong, and is there a way that this can currently be done?

Thanks!

EDIT:

I learned a bit more about smudges, and it appears that the lfs tag in the .gitattributes file for merge i.e. (merge=lfs) should be fixing this problem, but it doesn't appear to do so. Also, git-lfs is initialized properly according to each sourcetree window, under repository. So I'm not sure what's going wrong here.


Answers:
author: jrobe
body: Found out that the problem was that I wasn't waiting long enough to check the file. The smudge happened without me even knowing, and relatively soon after the pull I was able to open the file.

Interesting problem though, probably something I should report to the feature tracker.

How can I update the Sourcetree look and feel (theme) back to the old version?
Asked by Lewanna Rathbun:

I just got a new laptop and when I went to install Sourcetree, I was surprised to see that the look and feel is nothing like the older version I have on my other laptop. To be honest, I hate it. The colorful icons used in the older version were very helpful to me. This new version makes things much more difficult to use. How can I reset the look and feel to the older version or at least find other themes to use in Sourcetree without having to revert back to an older version?


Answers:
author: Tim Crall
body: It's been a common complaint and request, but there's currently no way to use the old look and feel without downgrading to the old version - and frankly I wouldn't expect one.

Can I use Confluence to track assets?
Asked by cxbrook6:

Need to use Confluence not only for documentation but to track assets and to add metadata to individual files. Is this possible?


Answers:
author: Emily _ DevSamurai
body: Hi [@Dan Breyen](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5086375)

As far as I understand, I don't think Confluence can help you track assets. However, if you're looking for a tool integrated with Jira for asset/inventory management, you can give [AssetIT](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1228867/assetit-it-asset-management-for-jira?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) a try. Its UI is friendly even for beginners and it's free for a team of 10 users and below.

I hope this may help.

body: Thank you!


author: Dan Breyen
body: Hi [@cxbrook6](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5318858) welcome to the community! I'm not sure about using Confluence for Asset Tracking, but if you have Confluence, maybe you have Jira Service Management? That has asset tracking built into it. Here's a page with more information about it: [Asset Management](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/service-management/features/asset-and-configuration-management)

Hope that helps.

The user is a space admin, but receives a not permitted error when trying to edit individual permiss
Asked by ??????? ??????:

The user is the space administrator, when checking through the permissions wizard, everything is ok. The administrator group of his space has all permissions, logs in successfully, but receives an error when trying to edit individual permissions. Confluence version is 8.5.1. Any ideas?![vlg-admin.JPG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/281233i57CB21BF78D3E66B/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "vlg-admin.JPG")![vlg-err.JPG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/281234iC663B002BBFD04CF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "vlg-err.JPG")

body: Hi [@??????? ??????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4529950) ,

I'll try to assist you with your inquiry.

There are a few things we can do to diagnose this kind of problems.

1. Have you tried to individually add the person to the permission of the space?
   1. If it still persists then we can further explore what we can do about it
2. Do we know if the person is logged in when they try to view the space/page?
   1. If you've configured anonymous access, it is possible that they might be viewing the page, but their access isn't recognised as they are not logged in

Let me know how you go.

Cheers,

Francis

PDF preview not working after migration
Asked by Lars Swart:

Hi,

we are in the migration process from Server to Cloud.

If we migrate pages with PDF files, these files will show a "We couldn't load the file." error in Confluence Cloud.

If we go in the editor, and change the "Change View" to "Display thumbnail" it works again.

This workaround can't be done manually for every pdf. Is there a solution to this problem?

Is this a sideeffect of the "new editor" in confluence cloud?

Is there any way to migrate data from confluence to sharePoint
Asked by Monika Rani:

Hello Community Members,

Is there any way I can migrate my content from Confluence to SharePoint Online? Please help if anyway perform this.


Answers:
author: Teodora V
body: Hi [@Monika Rani](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3242808)

You have various ways to export data from Confluence, all listed here:

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/export-content-to-word-pdf-html-and-xml/>

However, it pretty much depends on how SharePoint receives data, so you need to export and convert in a format SharePoint can import.

Or use 3rd party app like [this one](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1218247/sharepoint-connector-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=datacenter).

comments: author: Monika Rani
body: [@Teodora V](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/78696) this app is a connector, I don't need an integration. I need to migrate it completely. I know the ways the export data from confluence, but the question is how I can import it into SharePoint.


author: Teodora V
body: Since this community offers supportive content on Atlassian Tools, you may have more luck reading the Microsoft one. A user with a similar need posted a question on their Learning platform, so my advice would be to research more on the side of the tool you migrate to:

If you are on a team managed project , you are able to execute this, but if your project is company managed, you can't make these changes as a project admin.

You will need to reach out to your Jira admin to make this change for you.

The Jira admin will need to add a screen on the fix transition, and remove (if currently there) the post function that auto sets the resolution.

The transition screen needs to contain the resolution field.

File Preview - Error 'We couldn't load the file.' since conversion to new editor
Asked by Sebastian Spitzer:

I have a page that has over 101 files (of different types; pdf, xlsx, png, msg) attached to it.

The site was successfully migrated to the cloud on August 18, 2023.

The page was converted to the new editor on September 14, 2023.

Since then, the error 'We couldn't load the file.' has persisted for all files:

![Error - We couldn't load the file.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/281123iDB0A6F4E04C635F5/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Error - We couldn't load the file.png")

It seems like the links were converted broken broken.

Preview before conversion / error (example of one file preview):

![preview before error 'We couldn't load the file.'.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/281124i9C2076899FC9DDC0/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "preview before error 'We couldn't load the file.'.png")

However, all file attachments are apparently intact on the side. The download would be possible.

Newly uploaded files are also regularly displayed in the preview.

However, it would not be a practical workaround to download and upload all over 100 files.

Unfortunately, there doesn't even seem to be a media macro anymore in the new editor to access the already attached file and recreate the preview, see community-question '[How can I reuse already attached images in the editor without having to upload them again?](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/How-can-I-reuse-already-attached-images-in-the-editor-without/qaq-p/2478680)'

Is there already a solution or a repair procedure for this?


Answers:
author: Sebastian Spitzer
body: After consulting with Atlassian Support, there are 2 recommendations for this seemingly very individual error case:

1. In principle, a support issue must be reported to Atlassian.

2. If it is a .msg file, you must also vote for the feature <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-74736>.


author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Sebastian Spitzer](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2135003) if you have not already done so I would suggest submitting a support issue with Atlassian. They might be able to do something on your instance to help with the failed conversion.
