Comparing to SmartGit
Asked by Iwan Budihalim:

Hi There,

We are reviewing Sourcetree and SmartGit in terms of this benefit :

- Give developers the ability to work concurrently on files (in branches that may or may not converge)

- To merge changes with other developers' changes

- To track and audit changes that were requested and made

- To track bug-fix status and to perform releases

Can you give us a perspective how's sourcetree position against SmartGit ?

<br />

Thanks.


Answers:
author: James Rogers
body: If you want Stash integration, you'll want to use SourceTree.

Otherwise, it will be your preference.

SourceTree does Stash, Bitbucket, Github integration

SmartGit does Github, Bitbucket, Beanstalk, CodeBase, Assembla, Unfuddle integration

If you don't use any of these, then it's really your preference.


author: Seth
body: Your first three benefits are all satisfied by the technology underneath the UIs you are asking about: Git. Git allows developers to work concurrently on files in the same branch or different branches. Git merges branches. Git maintains a full history of commits.

Tracking a bug's status can't be done completely inside Git (or with either UI). You'll need to use a separate tool that may offer at least some integration with Git, or you can just implement a workflow that will allow you to infer bug-fix status from branch names, tags, and/or commit messages.

Performing releases will also need to be done manually, or using another tool. You can use Git to push to remotes, but I don't think that will affect the remote's working copy.

Learn more about what Git can do by reading the Git book: [git-scm.com/book/en/v2](http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2)

The main differences between the UIs will be how easy they make some of the more complicated git tasks. Try out things like viewing the commit history graph, branch management, viewing diffs, and merging. Also consider price. SourceTree is free for any use, SmartGit is not. Type of UI is also a factor. SourceTree operates completely in its own Window. TortoiseGit closely integrates with the context menu (right-click) in your file browser. SmartGit may do both? What about host? SourceTree offers extra features if your project is hosted in GitHub, Bitbucket, or Stash. SmartGit offers something similar for GitHub.

Also keep in mind that there is no reason you can't mix and match. Download both programs (SmartGit trial, obviously), and run them side-by-side, or on different machines. Make your decision based on the experience you and your team have with the software.
Is it possible to unstage files (from previous commit) when doing amend in SourceTree?
Asked by Christoffer Pettersson:

When I check "amend latest commit" in SourceTree, I would like to see all the files that were included in that commit in the "Staged files" area, so that I can easily exclude a file and then redo the commit.

Git GUI has this functionality.

Is it possible to unstage files (from previous commit) when doing amend in SourceTree?


Answers:
author: Seth
body: Two options for removing those files:

1)You can delete them from your system, and stage the removal, or find the files in SourceTree and choose "Stop Tracking" if you want to keep them.

2) Reset to the previous commit, and re-commit (instead of amending).

comments: author: Tim Crall
body: You should only do a reset if you haven't pushed the commit, though. A soft reset will move the branch pointer back without changing the working directory. You can then stage only those changes you want to commit, and commit again. This is almost certainly what Git GUI is really doing underneath the hood.


author: Seth
body: True, if you've pushed the commit, you shouldn't be resetting OR amending. Both operations modify the history, which can give headaches to team members that have already fetched it.


author: Christoffer Pettersson
body: Yea, this is prior to a push, but I still want to be able to "add" and "remove" from the latest commit. (Its a ways of working for me, I isually push to a temp-commit in my feature-branch and then add/remove changes from that until I am ready \^_\^)


author: Christoffer Pettersson
body: Remove those files from the commit


author: Seth
body: What are you hoping to achieve by unstaging? Are you wanting to remove those files, or just reverse changes made in them?

How to import Microsoft Word file with smart art
Asked by Furoza.ashrif:

Hello,

I am trying to create a Confluence page from a word document which has smartart.

The objective is to have a Confluence page where other members can add to the word document, similar to having a google word document everyone can contribute to.

I have tried importing the word document from the right hand panel, next to templates and get the following error   
![Screenshot 2023-08-10 094152.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/274352i156C209E06CA9B77/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2023-08-10 094152.png")  
I have tried attaching the word document and using the macro option, it finds the word document but only displays an image preview.

Is it possible?

Why some plugins not showing up in Assess Apps (Cloud Migration Assistant)?
Asked by Sourav Mallick:

I have the following plugins (along with other plugins) installed in server.

1. ServiceRocket Utility Library

2. Confluence mobile plugin

3. Analytics for Confluence Plugin

4. Teams Calendar

5. Bob Swift Atlassian Apps - Table Library

While trying to assess apps using the Cloud Migration Assistant, the mentioned plugins are not showing up. Hence unable to find the following - "Appears On", "Viewed By", "Can be migrated" details for them.

Can anyone let me know the reason behind this?


Answers:
author: AaronPavez_Appfire
body: Hi!

Please allow me to help you with one of those apps.

\> 1. ServiceRocket Utility Library

This plugin is the library for some Servicerocket (now Appfire) apps. This library is used by Scaffolding, Reporting, and the classic connector app (and some other server/DC by Servicerocket).

It doesn't show in the migration assistant because this app is only for Server/DC, hence it cannot be migrated.

For the other apps, It might be that those apps do not have a Cloud app counterpart.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Regards

Aaron

ConfiForms: Accessing input of Drawing canvas to send via mail
Asked by Luna Adulara:

Hi!  

I have a ConfiForm where I put a drawing canvas at the end to let the user sign the form.  
The whole input of the form is then send via IFTTT Macro as a mail (onCreated) to a mailadress of an external ticket system (we're not allowed to use Jira yet :( ).   
I get all the information from the form except the input of the drawing canvas.  

Is there a way to transform this to a picture-format an attach it? Or just put it as a picture directly into the (html) mail content?  

If I just reference the field (through field macro) in the mail I see the label, but the rest is blank.  

At the moment I have no idea how to do it.  

Thanks in advance!

Sorry to say, but drawing canvas in ConfiForms can only be used inside Confluence

It cannot be sent via an email, as it requires Confluence for "initialization" (which cannot be done in the static email)

body: Hi Alex,  

thnaks for the fast reply!  
I'm sad to hear/read that, but I almost was sure that there is no way :(  

So do you have any suggestions on how to implement a field for a signature or to validate the input in any other way similar?

So there's no way to create a link to the full information as it will be only available in the mail creating a ticket in our ticket system.

Call an existing draw.io tab in an other Confluence Page
Asked by Beno?t GALLINEAU:

Hi,  
I have a Draw.io with many tab. I try if it's possible to call one of this tab in another Confluence page ?

Somebody can help me ?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Bastian -drawio Diagrams-
body: Hi Beno?t.

Thanks for bringing that up, it's actually possible and also quite easy to accomplish in draw.io. Let me guide you through the process.

1. Go to the Confluence page where you like to refer to the original diagram and add the draw.io macro with the command */draw*

2. Now choose the option *Embed draw.io Diagram*

*![Screen Shot 2023-08-10 at 12.25.21.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/274389iB66B93F6D345A34C/image-dimensions/249x150?v=v2 "Screen Shot 2023-08-10 at 12.25.21.png")*

3. Select the parent diagram from the other Confluence page. If you looked at the diagram before, you will already see it under *Recent Diagrams* . If not, you can search for it. Then hit *Select*.

4. Select the diagram page/tab that you want to be displayed per default and hit *Insert*.

![Screen Shot 2023-08-10 at 12.29.59.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/274390i4637FA62A1AAF995/image-dimensions/398x188?v=v2 "Screen Shot 2023-08-10 at 12.29.59.png")

5. The parent diagram is now embedded on the new page. By default, not the first but (in this example) the third diagram page/tab will be displayed in the viewer. The embedded diagram will also be synched once changes are made to the diagram.

I hope this serves your need. If you have any follow up questions, always feel free to [contact our team](mailto:sales@drawio-app.com). May the force always draw with you ;)

Cheers,  
Bastian

Whether the viewport link will change once we delete and create it again?
Asked by Mekala Ramasamy:

I restructured a document based on a format and kept its original copy out of home page tree, so that users will see updated document only. Only space admins can go to reorder pages and see the hidden pages. These all were smooth.

But the problem is I have deleted viewport view using the **Space Tools -\>Apps-\>Delete Viewport**in a plan to stick with confluence as viewport doesn't help to reflect the confluence layout as it as.

Due to some issues, I created viewport again and shared the link. Surprised to see the old and new viewport links are different.

I am confused becoz new viewport link takes **Space key in its new URL** but the old one doesn't have space key which is replaced by some other keyword it seems (dont know exactly ).

Example:

old URL: https://....................//docs//dare//pagename, where am not sure about "**//doc//dare//**" in the URL

New URL: https://.....................//**daret** //pagename-pageid.html, where **daret** is the space key name

Please anyone help to solve this issue and this is very urgent.


Answers:
author: Leo Collmann (K15t)
body: Hi Mekala,  

take a look at our documentation: <https://help.k15t.com/scroll-viewport-data-center/2.22.0/configure-scroll-viewport#id-(2.22.0)ConfigureScrollViewport-ConfiguretheViewportURL>  

You can find the setting in Space Tools -\> Apps -\> Configure (right side of the chosen Viewport) -\> URL. Try setting the path naming to "Hierarchical". You can also change the path name if that has changed.  

Don't hesitate to reach out if there is anything else.

Does anyone know why I am unable to change headings on a confluence page?
Asked by Chris Rowles:

New to this software, so still trying to understand everything, but today I came across an issue where I am unable to edit or change the font size to certain lines of text within the page I was working on.   

Trying to create an onboarding process with individual steps laid out inside the document. Everything works fine for the first 3 steps, about half of the full document length. I can change font size, and certain lines of text can be assigned as headings and so on.   

After this "third Step," I am unable to alter any font size or adjust the headings at all. Everything is in "standard size" font. Or, for lack of a better term, the second half of the document is locking me out from assigning the step names as headings.   

Has anyone experienced this, or am I just missing something?   

Thanks for your help!


Answers:
author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@Chris Rowles](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5289072) Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Are you saying that you cannot apply any of the text styles available in the editor to the text---all of the paragraphs are using the ++Normal text++ style, and you cannot select a different style from the menu? As far as I know, this is the only way to change the size of text on the page.

![ConfluenceParagraphStyles.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/274422i2A7701CC80835488/image-dimensions/165x207?v=v2 "ConfluenceParagraphStyles.png")

comments: author: Chris Rowles
body: Hey Barbara, thanks for the reply. That is correct; when I get about halfway down the page, the text style box you have highlighted in your image is not available for me. When I go to try and change it to a different heading, for example, the dropdown menu has a "?" overlaying it.   

I'm sure I can find a workaround, but just seems odd that it's doing this.

Lost e-mail login do Trello Account
Asked by Quel Campos:

Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Quel Campos](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5289014) and welcome,

unfortunately, as specified [here](https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/recovering-your-trello-account/), you can't recover your account if you lost access to your email

You don't use that email anymore {#toc-hId--439136787}
------------------------------------------------------

You may no longer have access to the email address associated with your account. This happens sometimes when you change jobs and aren't using your work email anymore. This can also happen if you delete your email account.

For security reasons, we are not able to change the email address on your account (see below). Your best bet is to contact your former employer directly and ask if they can help you reclaim your Trello account by temporarily re-opening your old email account.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Email notifications not working in all scenarios except testing mail server
Asked by Luke Brothers:

Today I noticed users are not receiving any emails from Confluence Data Center 7.19.7. For example, @mentioning myself doesn't result in an email in my inbox or in the Confluence mail queue, and editing a watched page doesn't result in an email when I've configured my personal settings for this particular notification.

My troubleshooting:

* I found an outdated mail server was configured that failed to send a test message, so I added a new SMTP mail server and successfully sent a test message.
* I deleted the old mail server. Now we only have one SMTP mail server that tested successfully.
* I confirmed the Confluence Mentions Plugin is enabled, version 4.5.0
