Version 11.0

New Features

• GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket

  In this release we are introducing support for GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket. Our integration support allows for users to easily create Collaborator reviews whenever a pull request is initiated. In addition to creating the review, Collaborator can merge the pull request or close its branch once the Collaborator review is completed. Finally, we’ve made it easier to add repositories by basing their management off of webhooks.

• Custom Syntax Highlighting Schemes

  Collaborator has always supported syntax highlighting for a number of languages. However, this latest release adds the ability to create custom syntax highlighting schemes. This change now allows Collaborator to support syntax highlighting for any language. To learn how to create custom syntax highlighting schemes, read Syntax Highlighting.

• Document Review Improvements

  In Collaborator 11.0, users can now Pan, Zoom and Scroll using their mouse. The addition of these features makes reviewing both documents and images easier and more intuitive. Diff Viewer was reworked to support these mouse actions.

• Hide Files Under Review

  Often times changelists include files that do not necessarily need to be reviewed. Though they do not need to be reviewed, they are still part of an atomic changelist and cannot be deleted from the review. Hide Files allows users to selectively determine which files are displayed on the Review Screen. Read, Hiding Files From Review to learn how to use this feature.

More improvements:

• Collaborator now support file paths up to 1024 characters long. Earlier versions have file path limitation of 255 characters. (COLLAB-1459)

• Triggers > Executable and Triggers > Parameters fields now can be up to 1024 and 2048 characters long, respectively. (COLLAB-1692)

• Upgrade pdfbox library to 2.0.4 (COLLAB-2115)

• A new VM option that instructs Collaborator to use LIKE predicate instead of REGEXP_LIKE predicate in queries to Oracle database. REGEXP_LIKE predicate works slower and may cause performance issues on large Oracle databases. (COLLAB-2543)
