Sourcetree license (commercial use)
Asked by cliwo:

I know there are several license related questions here.

But they seem to be little bit outdated.

I tried to find official website explaining source tree license, but it was hard to find.

Can I find official website of source tree license or a button in source tree which leads to license information?

I really want to use source tree at my work without worrying about the license and money\&legal problems.

(no source tree no git to me!)

Thanks for your help.

But I have a small question aft I had read the License Agreement.

"3.2. Restrictions. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement, you will not: **(c) use the Software for the benefit of any third party;**"

What is the difference between "third party" and " the Company where I currently work for"?

Thanks.

Down the rabbit hole trying to get ST to use github PAT
Asked by Richard Corn:

I am getting this error on a waiting push:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks push -v Robot21C master:master  
Completed with errors, see above.

So there is no error detail to work with. This all started trying to get ST to use github PAT with basic authentication. With basic, I put in the pat as password and it authenticates successfully...but does not seem to remember the PAT if I go back to the password prompt. Old password seems to still be present. No push. Tried Oauth as well, not sure if that is refreshing correctly but it says authentication ok. Still no push with above error.

All started when the still waiting push was rejected because I was not using a PAT. Trying to get PAT to work led to updating ST and git embedded and ended up with above error.


Answers:
author: Software Devices LLC
body: This worked for me:

3. Added the PAT to the repository url like this

```
https://<personal-access-token>@github.com/<my-repo-url>
```

- it worked but I didn't like this solution.

4. Restarted PC, installed the newest git from [https://git-scm.com](https://git-scm.com/) - and in Sourcetree - Tools/Options/Git/Git Version - selected "System".

5. Removed the PAT from repository url - still works.

To me it looks like installing the new "git" really helped, so step 3 may be unnecessary, but I can't be sure about that, don't know if it would work without temporarily adding PAT to the url, maybe it also saved something somewhere.

I suspect its the git update that fixed it.


author: Richard Corn
body: So after trying several fixes for PAT authentication I found online I am back to this:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks push -v Robot21C master:master  
fatal: HttpRequestException encountered.  
An error occurred while sending the request.

remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.  
remote: Please see <https://github.blog/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations/> for more information.  
fatal: Authentication failed for '<https://github.com/ORF-4450/Robot21C.git/>'

Pushing to <https://github.com/ORF-4450/Robot21C.git>  
Completed with errors, see above.

As I work with this, it seems like when I edit the login credential in ST settings and click refresh password and enter the PAT, it authenticates at that moment but does not retain the PAT. When I push immediately after pw refresh, it fails. If I click refresh password again, it appears that the original (non-PAT) password is still there and appears in the entry field. It just seems lie the PAT is not retained and the old pw is used causing the error.

had to add 30-60k files and now checking out a branch is so slow
Asked by kishjtk:

I had to add 3 folders in order to track possible modifications even though we are only modifying a handful (they are the vendors folder where some customization may and does occur). Is there some way to speed up branch checkouts in this situation (over five minutes) or (I don't want to do this) should I zip up the entire thing and just put a zip file there.


Answers:
author: kishjtk
body: Here is the approach we took to deal with this -

removed this information from the repository

place it in a new "by itself" repository since it changes bvery rarely, and is usually due to upgrades rather than configuration/customization modifications.


author: Mikael Sandberg
body: Hi [@kishjtk](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4532636),

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

There is no option in Git to "speed up" the branch checkout. Are you switching between two branches that have these new files on them? Or are you switching between one that have them and another that doesn't? You may want to consider doing a shallow clone of specific branches instead of cloning the full history. Have a look at this post regarding shallow clone, [How to Use Git Shallow Clone to Improve Performance](https://www.perforce.com/blog/vcs/git-beyond-basics-using-shallow-clones). You should also look and see if [Git LFS](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/git-lfs) is an option to be used, especially if you have files that are over 10Mb in size.

JQL Query Request - How to show all issues with sub tasks listed under each parent (individually)?

How to set default permission so that new pages are not viewable by guests?
Asked by Abhay Patil:

This is about guest users. I have the following requirement.

All external users will have view only access to the Space. However when a new page is added to the space, is it possible to ensure that by default no external user can view it?

The idea is that the pages will be published and updated internally and will be made viewable for external users only when the author decides.

Thanks.


Answers:
author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@Abhay Patil](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3203231)

When editing or viewing the page:

1. select the lock icon on the top right to open the Restrictions box
2. in the dropdown list, select **Only specific people can view or edit**
3. specify the people who can view and edit the page

You can do the same when publishing/updating the page by selecting the same option in the **Access** dropdown.

When you are ready to make the page visible to guests, change to **Anyone in this space can view and edit** or **Anyone in this space can view, only some can edit**, depending on if you allow the guests to edit.


author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Abhay Patil](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3203231)

Method A)

Restrict EVERY new page to a space a single user (creator) or to a purpose created user group. This assures that only the selected people will be able to see the page UNTIL the restrictions are removed.

This might be hard to manage as you're dealing with individual pages.

Method B)

It is possible with an app. Confluence is like a smartphone, you can turn it into whatever you want with an app.

I understand that your users need to VIEW the content.

You can use [Scroll Viewport](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211636/scroll-viewport-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app. The idea is that you work in Confluence in your space/spaces as you always do. You can even remove the anonymous access from the space(s) as Viewport decouples your content from Confluence.

Then, when your content is ready, you build your Scroll Viewport site which will be public so your external users can view it. Then you work in Confluence, create pages without bothering with restrictions, once the content is ready, you rebuild the Scroll Viewport site. You can even have your own domain on your site. You can build as many sites as you want and/or use multiple spaces per one Viewport site.

Example of Viewport sites: <https://docs.emplifi.io/> (that's my site) [and https://confluence.atlassian.com/alldoc/atlassian-documentation-32243719.html](https://confluence.atlassian.com/alldoc/atlassian-documentation-32243719.html)


author: Nicolas Grossi
body: [@Abhay Patil](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3203231) I think this feature is not currently possible, you might take a look at <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-76845>

Excel Macro not working
Asked by Eve Hemingway:

I use an Excel Macro to show our company's weekly KPIs on Confluence. I'm not sharing a screenshot here since it is sensitive data.

The Excel shows the last 8 week's data and I see no issues with the Excel

But when I publish the page, it shows a version of the Excel from when I first published it, which was back in December 2023.

Any ideas why it's not pulling through correctly?

How to access connect app in page comment section?

I can access my app in page (in edit mode) using \`/\` command but can't do the same in comment section.

I can do this in confluence DC and that works.

I tried updating the \`categories\` section and made it empty but that didn't work. [As per the doc](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/modules/dynamic-content-macro/), if we don't pass any category then by default it takes \`All\`.

Count linked issues
Asked by Dustin Kalishoek:

We use Jira problems with linked incidents to them to keep track of how many incidents are logged for a specific problem.

And also to be able to close all of the affected incidents efficiently when the problem has been resolved.

An incident logged can be for one or more organizations.

How can I create a table containing all of the problems and counts of linked issues without having to create JQL for each single problem and organization combination?

I can pull the counts of linked issues required with (different versions of) below JQL, this works great to quickly lookup the different amount of linked issues on a single problem when asked.

*linkedIssue in linkedIssues("issuenumber") and project = "project" and organizations = "organization" and resolution = unresolved*

But having to do this manually for 80+ problems and 5+ organizations is way too much work and almost impossible to keep up-to-date.

What I am looking for is a table containing all problems with the following columns:

*problem/issue number \| total number of linked incidents to this problem \| total number of unresolved linked incidents to this problem \| total number of linked incidents for organization A to this problem \| total number of unresolved linked incidents for organization A to this problem \| etc.*

Fortunately, I've resolved it just now without handling DB.

The each directories account, Jira and Confluence account, has each account info. Before changing order, it needs to use Jira's login info. But after changing order Confluence internal directory in first, it needs to use Confluence login info(old password).

Luckly, the confluence admin account user remembers the Confluence login info(old password).

So, by using old password, I can recover it!

Really, thank you again


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@HuiEun Lee](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5381931) ,

my suggestion is to change directory order by a DB query and restart the application.

```
select * from cwd_directory;
```

Check your directory ids and then perform an update :

```
update cwd_directory set directory_position = 2 where id = <YOUR DIRECTORY ID>;
```

After doing that please check memberships for your account in internal directory/global permissions in order to avoid the same issue at next directory id change.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

What is this product and how is it different from other clouds
Asked by peter Smith:

How is this different from other clouds {#toc-hId--353307059}
-------------------------------------------------------------


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@peter Smith](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5538212) and welcome to the Community.

I can tell you why I use Confluence for product documentation.

* easy to manage
* great learning curve for both the users and the admins
* very intuitive
* page edit history (reversible, comparable, etc.)
* WYSIWYG text and structure editor
* pure and simple text editor with a lot of content tools (macros)
* fast and reliable
* great user and permission management
* seamless and in-depth Jira integration
* APPS. To me, Confluence is both a tool and a platform which can be greatly expanded by apps. It's like a smartphone. There is an app for that.
* SAML SSO support

I had an intern on my team to migrate 500 pages using crude copy/paste method from one doc site to Confluence. Not a tech writer but a budding UX/UI student, he never used Confluence before yet he was able to use make and execute complex content decisions almost as a seasoned pro.

How to produce a dynamic document index categorised by label across Confluence spaces?
Asked by David Camilleri:

Hi, I have information spread across a number of Confluence spaces. Assuming those pages are labelled with key words, how do I produce a single page containing an index of documents grouped by label? It would need to update dynamically as labels are added to new pages. The list of labels to be reported may be pre-defined.

Would "Content Report Table" be the best macro to use? How about "Content By Label"? "Insert Confluence List" looks interesting too, but it cannot be filtered by space or label.

Keen to hear your thoughts.

Thanks.

You may try to look into Confluence Databases ([here's my article on a couple of DB tips and tricks](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Use-Databases-for-your-docs-life-cycle-management/ba-p/2663479)) - DB allows you to organize and filter content by label and it works cross-space.

Or you can take a look at one of the confluence admin apps in the marketplace.
