Lost Information

[StuartHemming]

When merging 2 branches, Vault creates a change comment made up of the changeset comments of all of the changes being merged.

However, if this is a long set of comments it is truncated by Vault resulting in lost information.

I'm sure that you'll agree that this is a bad thing.

Can we get it fixed?

I can log this as a bug.

When you say "long set of comments" how many comments are we talking about?

Is this truncating the number of change set comments, or the comments within change sets?

[StuartHemming]

I noticed it when I was merging branches. The system creates a comment made up of the concatenation of all of the changeset comments used for the branch merge. After doing the merge I looked at one of the files that had been merged and the comments were truncated.

Thanks for the details. It's been logged.
