With this update, we release a new version of Anchorpoint's Git integration.  The Git integration is a simple version control system designed for artists and compatible with any Git hosting provider.

Git in Anchorpoint includes easy one-click installation and full LFS support for large binaries. Above all, we focused on onboarding. Each artist only has to register once with their Git provider, and can then join the repositories assigned to them with just a few clicks.

The Git integration contains

• A one click installation, including the LFS module
• Basic functions like commit, push, pull and revert
• Auto Fetch, Anchorpoint checks every minute if there are new commits in the repository
• The possibility to work with local repositories (without server)
• A command line prompt for quick troubleshooting with a tech-savvy team member
• Credential Management. Anchorpoint uses the official Git Credential Manager to store passwords. This way, you only have to log in to the hosting provider once.

Additionally, we have fixed the following bugs and added UX improvements

• Attributes can be deleted directly from the entry
• Open with: for each file, you can select the application with which it should be opened.
• Drag&Drop images from supported web browsers and chat applications is implemented
• BUG: The folder dialog can handle the selected folder
• BUG: Files are displayed again on network drives
• BUG: Template System: You can navigate to the template location again
• BUG: Fixed creating attributes loses focus on the text
• BUG: Copy works in the console
• BUG: Fixed flickering in tag menu
• BUG: Emails with two dots are supported
• BUG: Icons which are set wrong on folders has been fixed

‍

This update includes small additional fixes

• Files in a mounted drive are displayed correctly again
• Project Actions are executed correctly
• Clicking on key frames in the video player jumps to the correct frame

‍

This update brings many fixes that you have posted in our Discord channel. With this update, we continue to focus on stability to make Anchorpoint production ready. It is a big step to the upcoming version 1.0. This update also includes several small improvements like:

• One click solution to copy the current folder path to clipboard
• Better UX for adding filters using a dedicated Attribute Filter button
• Project icons You can set a custom icon for your project.
• Selecting reviews moves the play head to the correct position
• An option to set the date format in the application settings (Day/Month/Year, Month/Day/Year, Year/Month/Day, Written Date)
• An option to disable the single click navigation on folders
• An experimental version of a Time Tracking Attribute, which can be enabled in the application settings

This update brings color to Anchorpoint. Folders and Cards (renamed from Tasks) can now be color coded and an icon can be set.

In addition, the settings have been changed so that members can be managed in the entire workspace.

• Members can be added and removed
• Members can be temporarily deactivated
