GitBackup Extension version 5.0.0 for ThingWorx 9.3

New capabilities:

-added capability to export entities based on Model Tags (thanks @jmccuen)
-added validation in the “New Repo” screen for Git thing names to prevent forbidden characters and existing entities
-added per-user Git credentials storage; as part of this capability, credentials are no longer stored at the Git repository level. Make sure to read Note 3 / Page 15 from the Extension user guide attached to this release.

Fixed bugs:

-removed requirement to have a branch named “master” in your remote repository
-folder “smartparking” is no longer created automatically in the specified File Repository after a Git thing is created (at the first initialization)
-Push screen scrollbars removed

Various improvements:

-upgraded Jgit to the latest version available
-simplified the Git thing creation screen by removing the Online Bitbucket option
-added additional logging in the Push process, visible in the Log screen
-Push screen structure simplified as part of the new per-user Git credentials storage
-Various mashups updated to the standard widgets (ptcs), since the legacy widgets used originally to build this extension are only guaranteed to be in the platform until April 2024 (https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS369707 )

Supported versions:

-ThingWorx: 9.3.4 and higher
-Removed support for 8.5, 9.0, 9.1 and 9.2 due to actual (or soon to be EOL) for those ThingWorx versions
-This version has not been tested in 9.0, 9.1 or 9.2. If an issue is reported for those versions, and if the fix is easy to add in the extension without over-complicating the implementation, it will be fixed and released as a patch version.

Known issues:

-the Settings button from the Manage screen still points to the old version of the Edit Git repository mashup; this will be fixed in future releases
-inline with any x.0.0 release, expect bugs and raise issues so I can track and fix them

GitBackup Extension version 4.1.0 for ThingWorx 9.0

This is a minor release, which introduces a Log capability.
I highly suggest reading page 29 from the documentation to understand how this feature works (hint: it logs only certain operations).

New capabilities:

-Log feature available via the Main Mashup’s Log button
-Auto-prune capability – automatically removes the remote tracking local branch reference

This version will not work on ThingWorx 8.4 and 8.5. You must download the relevant version built for ThingWorx 8.4/8.5 here https://github.com/PTCInc/thingworx-gitbackup-extension/releases/tag/V4.1.0
