Version Control - Git

[Kauan P.]

I'm trying to use Version Control on PL/SQL Developer using the Git option.

I already installed the VCS Plug-in (https://www.allroundautomations.com/products/pl-sql-developer/plug-ins/), git (https://git-scm.com/) and git extensions (http://gitextensions.github.io/), but the VCS menu item is disabled.

Reading the "PL/SQL Developer Version Control Plug-In 1.2 User’s Guide" in the chapter 1. Installation and configuration , if the VCS menu item is disabled, this indicates that no Version Control System is detected on my PC that supports the Microsoft SCC Interface Specification.

But I downloaded all the softwares from the links of PL/SQL Developer IDE (Image)

In the Git Executable (git.exe) option, I tried:

C:\Git\bin\git.exe
C:\Git\cmd\git.exe
C:\Git\git-bash.exe
C:\Git\git-cmd.exe

What i'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

If you are using PL/SQL Developer 14.0 you should not use the VCS Plug-In, and there will not be a VCS menu item. All VCS operations can be performed directly from the File Browser and from the Program Windows, SQL Windows, Test Windows, and so on. You will first need to configure Git through the preferences though.

See also chapter 16 "Version Control" in the User's Guide.

Hmm.. ok, I already have done that, but how can I use version control on DB objects like the plug-in?

The Git and Svn integration only works with files, not with database objects.
