  • bug report
  • feature request
  • puppy => You're not submitting a puppy. I already have one and he's adorable

• What is the current behavior?

After update to newest IntelliJ version, the git flow plugin reports "Unsupported Git Flow Version"

• Is this a bug? Sorry about that. If so give me explicit details how to reproduce:

1. Open IntelliJ
2. Look at message from git flow plugin in lower right corner

• What is the expected behavior?

That the git flow plugin accepts the installed version, 1.12.3 (AVH Edition), of git flow.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

• Please tell me about your environment:

• Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktrace, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for me to have context words of praises, pictures of puppies (again with the puppy??) )

Yes, I have a .idea/misc.xml file.

Is your project initialized with git init? I had the same experience when I didn't run that command. Although the message gives you the wrong idea, like something is wrong...

You're right. If the project already has been initialized, then the message is simply "No gitflow".

Curiously enough, after having opened an already initialized project, then the error message in the uninitialized project also changed from "Unsupported Git Flow Version" to "No gitflow".

I have the same problem, and that happens each time I upgrade IntelliJ. This is annoying. Can we make so that this plugin runs on every IntelliJ version?

...
patchPluginXml {
    pluginId "Gitflow"
    pluginDescription 'Git Flow Integration'
    version '0.7.6'
    sinceBuild '211.0'
    untilBuild '211.*'

The "unsupported gitflow version" issue has nothing to do with the intellij version. It's a separate bug I'm still tracking.

As for your suggestion @vulkanino
This has been discussed in the past, the answer is no. See explanation here:
#319
#200

[vulkanino]

Please provide at least a "use at your own risk". We're blocked.

@vulkanino
Yeah I'm not planning on doing that - it doesn't make sense in terms of legal and ethical liability

If you feel like you're blocked in your very specific use case then by all means I offer this plugin as open source - you're more than welcome to build a version for yourself from the source code and and use at your own risk

@JayeshB92 it's exactly comments like these that make people want to quit maintaining open source projects. You're using free software provided at no cost for you. You're not in any position to demand anything.

A new version will be available soon and is tracked here - #332 . Until then you can just use 2021.1

such comments are a shame

[CC007]

Not all people know or thought of it, but @JayeshB92 it's better to put a thumbsup reaction on the original post, rather than a comment that adds no additional info regarding the issue. That way you prevent clutter and it gives a nice way for the dev to see how many people experience the same issue, without manually counting all the "same here" comments.

I committed something to 0.7.7 which is now out that might solve this issue. I'll reopen if it crops up again.
