Cannot clone any repos from Beanstalk, authentication issue
Asked by Kevin Kim:

When trying to clone any beanstalk repo, after pasting the URL of the repo into Sourcetree, I'm prompted with a login window that pops up. Feeding it my CORRECT beanstalk password, the authentication fails and I'm unable to clone the repo.

Any ideas what's going on here?

Presumably you are being presented with a plain windows style grey dialog for your credentials? Do you have 2FA or anything similar on your account?

Authentication
Asked by Maarten Verijdt:

Lately using Sourcetree has become incredibly annoying.

It's a good thing that you've got a secure application. But don't bother users with a million different screens about authentication. Just solve this within Sourcetree and be done with it.

after idling sourcetree already asks for my password, why is it impossible to remember my password? but now it also starts opening pages like this: http://localhost:34106/?state=authenticated\&code=tAukWjRT4k7aMwSqq3 in my web browser.

Think again, how many users are waiting for stuff like this?

Can you revert this or make Sourcetree remember my passwords and put all authentication logic inside the application?


Answers:
author: minnsey
body: Hi  

Sourcetree stores credentials in the Windows Credential Manager, it does this so that they can be shared with the Git Credential Manager for Windows which is bundled with Git for Windows.  

The popup dialogs asking for username/password or OAuth are probably the Git Credential Manager for Windows being triggered by Git. Sourcetree itself only asks for credentials when adding/editing an account.  

There have been some bugs in recent releases of the Git Credential Manager, if you are using a system git install we would recommend upgrading to Git 2.20.1 or above.
Cannot stash - SourceTree
Asked by Natalija:

Hi!

I have problem when I try to stash mu changes on source tree. I get error:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false stash save test  
Cannot save the current worktree state  
Completed with errors, see above.

I tried updating SourceTree to 3.0.15, it didn't help. Then I tried deleting and installing it again. That didn't help ether. I didn;t have this problem until a month ago. It worked fine before.

I will be thankful if someone can help me with this issue!!!

author: Ana Retamal
body: Hi Natalija, welcome to the Community!

Have you tried performing this operation in the command line? Are you getting the same error?

If the command line works, then the issue is in Sourcetree. Can you check the logs and let us know if there's any additional information there? You can find them at [Sourcetree log location](https://confluence.atlassian.com/sourcetreekb/sourcetree-logfile-location-675384748.html).

If the issue persists, can you also answer the following:

1. Are you on Windows or Mac?
2. Do you have any anti-malware software?  

Cheers!

Ana

comments: author: Colin Cass
body: I've had this exact issue for a very long time, since one of the early 2.x versions. It worked prior to that. I use system git, and stashing from command line has worked all long.

EDIT: I take it back: running the exact same command in git bash yields the same result, but using 'git stash push' works correctly. Could be a git problem.


author: jhorsman
body: I had the exact same problem running SourceTree 2.6.10.0 on Windows 10.  

Symptoms:

* Git stash in SourceTree raises the \`Cannot save the current worktree state\` error.
* \`git stash save message\` raises the same error

Workaround:

* \`git stash\` still works

Solution:

* Installed Git version 2.21.0.windows.1 from the link [@Colin Cass](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3024289) mentioned.
Where is the "stage selected lines" go.

Auto destination folder when clone

How to do a consolidated diff in Sourcetree
Asked by slaughton:

Hi there,

In SVN I can log a top level project directory, then type the ticket number *(we put ticket number in the description of all commits for that ticket)*into the filter box, and it will list all commits for that ticket. In the lower part I can see all the files that were added/modified/deleted for the ticket.

I can then do a consolidated diff on a file where it takes all the changes made over the duration of that ticket and consolidates them into a single diff. Then I can jump through to each change and review the code.

How can I do this in Sourcetree on Windows?

I have tried to work this out but these are the issues I have come up against:

* The Search tab doesn't allow you to select multiple commits.
* The Log / History tab does allow you to select multiple commits but you see all the files for every commit in between the ones you selected, not just ones for the commits you selected. This is useless if you trying to review code as other devs may have done commits in between your commits.

Thanks for your time.


Answers:
author: minnsey
body: Hi  

I think the approach you outlined is the closest to what you are looking for. Can you remove the clutter of other commits/branches by restricting the log view to the current branch only?

comments: author: slaughton
body: We have come from SVN so at the moment everyone is developing in the develop branch (TRUNK in SVN speak) so filtering out other branches doesn't really help. Once we adopt git flow and everyone is in their own feature branch it will be easier for peer reviews, but still you will have the issue of historical code and wanted to look up an old ticket to see all the code changes done in that ticket. I guess thinking about they should all be in a single merge using the gitflow methodology.

How do you get a previous checkin
Asked by yegedservices:

I committed code and then I messed something up. I need to get that source again. Two levels down.


Answers:
author: minnsey
body: Hi  

If you double click on a given commit you will be promoted to checkout the code at that commit. Be aware it will create a detached HEAD. Alternatively you could create a branch from that commit or revert your code back to that commit, but that is more complicated if you have already pushed your commits.
I am getting 404 error on pull request

I am using SourceTree version 3.0.15. Creating pull request to master branch like that: repository-\>create pull request or alternatively selecting create pull request in commit options button.

This is what I get from SourceTree (show full output):

Unable to create space in mobile app or mobile browser view

Confluence pretty unusable without a full PC.   
1. mobile app/spaces - click on view all spaces - you see the + create space option but it disappears instantly and then a message about how to start a space is displayed. No way to get the create a space menu item back.

2. Mobile browser view- click create space - side menu is expanded so you can choose the space type, you select a space type such as documentation or knowledge base, you see some content has loaded in a right modal but it's not accessible on screen. Unable to scroll or zoom in/out on screen so unable to actually select template and create space.

See: [how-to-use-the-app-with-confiforms](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-the-app-with-confiforms-42246480.html)

Indeed ad [@Marc - Devoteam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3796976) has kindly mentioned, we support the Confiforms and the standard macro generated tables such as the Attachments macro.

Not sure what you are trying to do with the Table Transformer macro - maybe it is better to switch to our [support portal](https://stiltsoft.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/14) that is confidential?

There you'll be able to share the screenshot of your Confiform table in a published state, so we can see how your attachments are listed there.

Then you may tell us how you need to transform your table and what exactly you want to get as a result.
