Now REQUIRES a GIT version 2.26 or newer.
More exploitation of Dovetail's getpds/putpds.
Correctly tag z/OS datasets and members as they are copied to OMVS
  Based upon the default codepage as found in the .gitattributes file

                          Bug Fixes and Other Updates:
                          ----------------------------

Correct situation where the ignore qualifiers is set to 0 so the full
  dataset name is used for the OMVS and Git repositories.
Correctly tag all dataset/members copied using CP or GETPDS to OMVS
Changed ADDDSN abbreviation to ADDD and an alias of ADS
Changed ADDALL abbreviation to ADD
Some more work to correctly detect when z/OS PDS members have changed

Correct a View where the LRECL > 255 and the Edit macro tries to turn
  off Edit hiliting.
Change the History extract to use Stash, if there are changes, along
  with the previous checkout to eliminate issues if the archive is not
  clean.
Check the repository status on a Stash request and inform the user if
  the repository is clean and Stash is not useful.

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                               Version 3.10

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

Dual path cp use from and to a PDS to use the DoveTail getpds and putpds
commands if available, otherwise continue to use cp. The speed improvement
is an improvement of minutes to seconds.

   To use the Dovetail enhancements (highly recommended) point your
   browser to https://dovetail.com and download the Co:Z Co-Processing
   Toolkit.  Along with the getpds and putpds, that will greatly enhance
   ZIGI, you will also have Co:Z SFTP, Co:Z Launcher, Co:Z Dataset Pipes
   and Co:Z Batch.

   The use of the Co:Z Toolkit is subject to Dovetail's Community
   License https://dovetail.com/docs/cozinstall/licenses.html

   When installing refer to:
   https://dovetail.com/docs/cozinstall/install.html#inst_coz And note
   that the UID=0 (superuser) or other special permissions are not
   required for use with ZIGI. Also, you do not need to address other
   requirements or customizations such as z/OS OpenSSH.

New User exit driver created (zigiexit) as a generalized exit facility.
Initial Exit 0 has been defined to provide a path to DoveTails getpds/putpds
if it isn't found in the default path using zigixit0 (provided as sampxit0).

New CONNECT command to add an existing ZIGI formatted Git repository to
the ZIGI ISPF table of repositories.

Expand the ZIGI repository delete dialog to allow retaining the Git files
and directories.

New PDS member selection commands
 - AF to git add with -f (force) to be used to add a PDS member that was
   previously git ignored
 - I to git ignore a PDS member and a new member status of [  ] Git Ignore
 - Make the Grep panel a popup with a tutorial panel behind it

Add Read Only flag to the ZIGIINFO display panel.

Improved usssafe routine that is faster with less overhead.

Add git log to ZGBATCH reporting.

ZGBATCH now supports a COMMIT DD to provide the commit prose for the
batch process. The DD may be a DD * or a DD referencing a sequential
dataset or PDS member.

Update ZGINSTALL to use Dovetails PUTPDS if it is in the path.

For testing purposes added a check for a NOCOZ DD to bypass the Dovetail
utilities and use native cp.

Only work with z/OS datasets that are in the .zigi/dsn file. All other
OMVS files will still be processed by Git but will not be copied to/from
z/OS.

Change git-encoding default value for new repositories, in preparation
for Rocket Git 2.26.x, which ignores git-encoding attribute and encodes
the content from the specified encoding to UTF-8.

Use LF instead or CRLF as newline character, to be consistent with UNIX.

New DIFF command for the local repository to display the differences for
either the unstaged or staged changes.

Change the ADDALL processing to a 'git add .' instead of adding only
individual files.


                          Bug Fixes and Other Updates:
                          ----------------------------

1. Remove check of remote after commit as unnecessary.
2. Clean up the history table. Key on commit and remove %b (body)
3. In the table state test which checks the level of the repo table,
   if there are no rows then just return to avoid meaningless messages.
4. Fixed RM of a PDS bug, needed to add -r (recurse) for some edge cases
5. Fix STOP as a valid command on the delete confirmation panel if
   members of a PDS are deleted outside ZIGI but not removed from the
   OMVS file system.
6. Correct detection of untracked members
7. On a branch change correct handling of added/deleted elements
8. Correct test for existing datasets in zginstall.rex
9. Update bugs in ZIGICNVT (CONVREPO command). It is still not prefect but
   it is better. Now creates a .gitattributes if one does not exist and
   supports files with $ in the name.
10. Fixed incorrect tagging for untagged files with updates from Filipe Meireles
11. Use -T for default cp copies to address issue with x'00' (perhaps other)
    characters in a text member (thx to Filipe)
12. Correct bug when using member file extensions with the AB (add binary)
    member selection option.
13. Correct bug not detecting changed sequential z/OS datasets
14. Correct 3 issues within 3.10 found by Filipe:
    - update save_dsninfo routine to ignore all dsn's with members
    - correctly handle extensions in git_add_member routine
    - Improve check for git clean (FM)
15. Return ISPF message if history not found for the selected element at
    the requested commit level
16. Correct bug in History Recovery of PDS member
17. Correct bug in History Recovery of PS dataset
18. Correct stats handling and thus change detection for recfm=u (lmods)
19. Correct but 391 - doing a commit of .gitattributes when adding a
    dataset
20. Correct repository delete processing that missed some z/OS datasets
21. Prevent RECFM=V datasets from being added to a repository in Binary
    as the OMVS cp command does not support them.
22. Add Copy popup message to improve awareness when copying PS datasets
23. Fix broken debug initialization
24. Correct panel display if missing PDS member but entry in OMVS filesystem
    and correct rm's
25. Clean up tables after CHECK processing.
26. Fix scroll max error in ZIGIEDIT panel when viewing data
27. Fix use of Dovetail on Pull for selected members in ZIGICKOT
28. Correction for tbsort on the repo table if sort variable corrupt
29. Correct return processing from subdirectories

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                               Version 3.02

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

Support a Read Only Repository. These must be Created and Cloning is not
recommended. Only operations that copy from z/OS to OMVS are supported with
no updates to the z/OS datasets allowed from within ZIGI. Thus Branch,
Replace, Merge, Stash, Flow, Edit, History Recover, Rename, and Remove are
prevented.

Anytime a z/OS dataset will be replaced there will be prompt to inform the
user of this and allow the user to (a) change the HLQ, (b) the # of
qualifiers to ignore, or both before proceeding. Or to cancel the operation.
This is to prevent the replacement of any dataset without overt permission.
This will only occur during a Clone or Replace operation.

Update the Delete/Remove Repository from ZIGI more user friendly and thus
easier to use and understand.

Support multiple prefixes (HLQs) on the dataset add panel.

                          Bug Fixes and Other Updates:
                          ----------------------------

1. On the Add Dataset Panel do NOT allow the ignore qualifiers to be
   changed from 0.
2. After Stash Pop leave the Stash List display.
3. On a Clone of a non-ZIGI repository do not create .gitattributes or
   .zigi/dsn
4. Allow changing Prefix (HLQ) in AddDSN table if ignore is 0
5. If ignore is 0 correctly detect added datasets
6. Remove calls to call work_with_repo_file and call update_repo_metadata
   after updating a PDS member within ZIGI as not needed and speeds things
   up a tad.

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                               Version 3.01

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

Add _EDC_ZERO_RECLEN=Y to the OMVS environment variables to address
datasets/members with variable length records (RECFM=VB) with blank
records.  This will preserve those records.

Allow a qualifier ignore value of zero to allow datasets from different
HLQ's to be in the same repository. Not a great idea but doable. The full
dataset name (e.g. SYS1.PARMLIB) will now be stored in the repository.
When doing this care is required to prevent updating the z/OS dataset from
the OMVS filesystem. When cloning such a repository an HLQ would still be
required (thus SYS1.PARMLIB would clone into hlq.SYS1.PARMLIB).

                          Bug Fixes and Other Updates:
                          ----------------------------

1. Remove duplicate code for repository delete that resulting in an
   an incorrect message that the OMVS files had not been deleted when
   they had.
2. Issue 378 - add call to pfshow routine to turn off and then turn back
   on the display of PFKeys around all pop-ups. Was missing from some.
3. When changing branches, or pulling an update, if a OMVS file was
   removed then the z/OS dataset that maps to it is not removed. If the
   z/OS dataset was a PDS then the members were deleted. The member
   deletes will no longer happen.
4. Updated the add dataset popup panel to add a command entry field. This
   allows a file extension (which was the 1st entry field) to have values
   that may map to a ISPF command table entry.
5. After a Merge the current repository display needed to be updated to
   reflect added/removed datasets/files.
6. Generalize binary file detection in case someone modifies .gitattributes
   manually and doesn't follow the ZIGI convention.

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                               Version 3.00

                         New Features and Functions

When performing a branch change to an existing branch, instead of
completely replacing all the z/OS datasets, only replace (or delete) the
changed elements.

Update the zginstall.rex with to check if any z/OS datasets will be replaced
during the install and provide an option to retry with a different HLQ.

Added Dataset Allocation (ENQ) checking prior to performing a copy from the
OMVS Git repository to a z/OS dataset with an option to Retry or Abort. This
is to prevent a catastrophic failure with the OMVS cp (copy) command if the
target z/OS dataset is allocated.

Add Feedback command and action bar (under Help) to display a popup
with a link to a feedback website.

Add a Find option to the History table display to make it easier to
find the commit of interest.

Allow MV as an alias of RN (rename).

When performing a merge, instead of completely replacing all the z/OS
datasets, only replace (or delete) the changed elements.

When removing a repository from ZIGI added an option to keep the Git files
if the OMVS files are not deleted.

Improve cursor positioning on the Commit Panel for a more intelligent and
logical placement.

In many situation where PDS members are copied, from PDS to OMVS or OMVS
to PDS, the copy operation will now copy all members in one cp command.
This means the progress popup with member name will not be available in
this situation. In some cases where only a few of the PDS members are
being copied then the member progress popup will remain.

Enhance the element copy progress popup on a change detection to include
the type of copy (text, binary, lmod).

New ZGBATCH to provide the ability to run ZIGI in batch to add and
commit/push updates (changes and new) elements. Must be run using a
SYSEXEC/SYSPROC that uses the ZIGI EXEC library. Sample JCL included in
the comments of the EXEC.

Add the git command as a message in the View of the GITCMD results.

Add a new value for Repository Name that is different from the Git
repository name. This will allow the cloning of the same Git repository
multiple times under different names - providing the PREFIX and OMVS
directories are different.

Improve checking on Repository Create, Clone, or Extract on the use of
the provided HLQ's and OMVS directories.

Add GITCMD to the Current Repository options popup menu.

Replaced ROLLBACK dialog with EXTRACT dialog. This is the same as ROLLBACK
with the addition of an eXtract option to create a set of z/OS datasets
and OMVS files for the selected (one or more) commits. These are not Git
managed and are intended to be used to create a delta package (aka PTF)
with the changed elements only. The Extract and the TAGList Extract use
the same ZIGIEXTR routine, one uses the Commit hash and the other uses
the tag.

New installer - a generic ZIGI installer. It is being used for ZIGI and
there is an option to prime an existing ZIGI managed repository with it.
The new installer, zginstall.rex, is in the root of the repositories OMVS
directory. It copies the OMVS files that map to z/OS datasets into new
z/OS datasets. Then it generates a z/OS REXX Exec, hlq.ZGSTAT.EXEC, which
will apply the ISPF statistics to each z/OS Partitioned dataset member.

Update to the Current Repository SET dialog with an option to add
zginstall.rex, and a zginstall.readme, to the current repository.

On the primary repository table display enhance the FIND to report
when a Repeat Find wraps the table. Also for Find/RFind in the
repoistory dataset display.

Added a prompt to confirm/prevent deletions when checking for updates.
Currently when a PDS member is missing but the OMVS version of it still
exists, the PDS member is just deleted. This occurs during a Pull,
Merge, or just entering the repository when all datasets are checked for
updates. An option is provided to Browse/Edit the OMVS file along with
an option to recover the member from the OMVS file.

             -----------------------------------------------

Bug Fixes and Other Updates:

 1. Expand URL field for longer URLs (Clone and Remote) and make
    the field a scrollable field in other panels
 2. Expand title field for version (2.x to 2.xx)
 3. Correct row selection warning after a branch (residual variable)

10. Correct binary detection if a file extension in use
11. Correct bug in binary test routine - added procedure expose binfiles.
12. For many of the exec's add to bpxwunix the environment stem so that
    SHAREAS=YES is honored to speed things up (no spawning)
13. Correct TagList Extract issues
    - TBDispl Failure after extract (added control display save/restore)
    - Correct support for multiple extract tag selection
14. Bypass Edit/View hilite if lrecl > 255
15. Several coding bugs found with REXX compiler :(
16. Correct member list sort to support members created/updated in 19xx
17. Set the default permissions to 755 in the MKDIR popup
18. Fix invalid selection in PDS member list after some commands
19. Fix setting the default userid on commit
20. Use the Default (commit) userid when opening a repo if a PDS member
    does not have any ISPF statistics instead of using the users userid
21. During repository check for updates, if a PDS member is missing the it
    is deleted from OMVS and Git. Swapped the deletes so git rm is before
    omvs rm.
22. In the Network display the _ was being colored and shouldn't have been
    if it is part of the prose and not the network diagram - fixed
23. Ignore LMOD aliases as the cp command will handle those.
24. Converted many bpxwunix calls to call docmd for consistency.
25. In ZIGIDSNA correct cursor positioning if no prefix ignore.
26. Improve target directory check for cloning and creation.
27. Correct bug when pulling where member deletes are included.
28. Improve process when F3 (cancel) on Rollback prompt popup

    for a non-git directory.
33. Change the DSCB reference file directory from home/.zigi to
    home/.zigirefd
34. Make sure ZIGI checks for updates on entry
35. Correct dataset check on branch delta to bypass z/OS copy of OMVS files
36. If removing a Repository from ZIGI but retaining OMVS do not remove the
    .git or .gitattributes files
37. Speed up the History process of finding applicable commits for an
    element significantly and replace author with subject in the display
38. After Merge Conflicts resolved support selective z/OS replace instead
    of full replace
39. Correct STASH processing

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                                Version 2.8

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

New support for z/OS load modules, and associated aliases, to be managed by
ZIGI and Git. This is transparent to the user. If a PDS is RECFM=U then it
is treated as a load library. Be aware that when copying a load module from
USS to a z/OS load library that the binder is invoked which may change the
blocking of the load module but will retain all entry points, aliases,
attributes, etc.

   * ------------------------------------------------------------------ *
   | NOTE: If your z/OS is not on z/OS 2.4 and you wish to utilize the  |
   |       ability to have ZIGI and Git manage load modules then        |
   |       install UJ01358 for z/OS 2.2 and UJ01356 for z/OS 2.3.       |
   * ------------------------------------------------------------------ *

New ZG command that is used outside of ZIGI to add/commit/push a updated PDS
member from either the ISPF command line or from an enhanced member list.
NOTE: The ZG exec is self-contained with inline ISPF panels. It must be
installed in a library in the SYSEXEC or SYSPROC default allocation for use.

NOTE: For the 'Open ZIGI' command in the new ZG it's required you have
      the ZIGI-startup exec present in your SYSEXEC or SYSPROC library.

The Local Repository table is updated to easily identify the column(s)
that are sorted. The sorted column(s) will be white and non-sorted in
turquoise.

Colorize the Git Log Graph (Network command).

Validate during Clone processing to prevent HTTP/HTTPS usage since ZIGI
only supports SSH.

New Import command on the Commit panel to import commit text from a dataset.

Update SNAPSHOT and TagList Extract to bypass copy of OMVS directories/files
if path is null.

When removing (RM) a z/OS dataset or OMVS file provide the option to just
remove it from git and not delete the dataset or file. If a z/OS dataset
then provide an option to not delete the dataset or file but to remove it
from git management. The options provided are Z delete z/OS dataset, O
delete OMVS file, B to delete both, or N for No delete (only remove from
Git). **NOTE** this does NOT apply to performing an RM on a PDS member due
to the way PDS members are managed - performing an RM *will* delete the PDS
member and the OMVS copy of the member.

Bug Fixes and Other Updates:

  1. Check z/OS dataset exists before attempting to copy to OMVS
  2. Better parsing of remote repo URL in clone and adding remote panel.
  3. Correct multiple row delete on row selection D in commit panel.
  4. Correct Locate in PDS member list.
  5. Update majority of tutorial panels for grammer/spelling/format.
  6. Validate the OMVS directory for TagList Extract.
  7. Correct the sortdate field - was not being consistently set the same
  8. Correct bug with taglist create to prevent recursion into the repo
     processing routine
  9. Fix duplicate dataset add by commenting the prior dataset in .zigi/dsn
 10. Update test for commit insert command (I###)
 11. On repository delete remove the last reference date file
 12. Fix check for last reference date is the repository is not in the users
     home directory
 13. PDS members starting with # break cp going to z/OS
 14. Add a progress indicator to the OMVS->z/OS Copy (ZIGICKOT)

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                                Version 2.7

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

Support file extensions for PDS members when copied to OMVS. The extension
is defined when the PDS is added to ZIGI for management and only one extension
is allowed per PDS, and it may NOT be changed. The extension is then removed
when the file is copied to the PDS.

Redo the Current Repository Action Bar Menu. Split out General and Repository
into General, Maintenance, and Repository.

New Check command to be used by the user to check the state of the z/OS
datasets on demand. The check will occur when the repository is opened and
then only when the user requests. The state of the OMVS files will continue
to be checked frequently as the user interacts wtih the repository.

Reduce processing overhead by only checking z/OS datasets for changes if
they have changed since the last date that ZIGI checked them. The test
will be to check the dataset if the last reference date (from listdsi)
is the same as the current day or if it is greater than the last
reference date as saved by ZIGI in the users home directory under
.zigi/filename where filename is the OMVS file copy of the z/OS dataset.

Enable multiple row selection in many instances (not all).

Improved detection of deleted, or renamed, PDS members during PULL
processing.

Improved detection of deleted, or renamed, PDS members at ZIGI repository
startup.

Bug Fixes and Other Updates:

  1. Check z/OS dataset exists before attempting to copy to OMVS
  2. Table panel updates to use zgsr instead of zscr for scrolling field
  3. Small cosmetic updates to some panels
  4. Change ZIGICKOT
       - check for .zigi/dsn before reading it - in case non-ZIGI repos
       - if not there then set recfm/lrecl/blksize defaults
       - continue to do selective dataset/member restores but do a full
         ISPF stats reapply
  5. Remove check for hyphen for 1st char of dsname
  6. Remove tbquery that is not required
  7. Remove version from default installation datasets

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                                Version 2.6

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------


Add the Info command to the Current Repositories set of commands to display
a summary about the repository.

Add Change History as an option on the Help action bar to view the change
history, which is a copy of the Release Notes dataset.

On the Current Repository table allow multiple rows to be selected (S) for
serial processing.

On the TagList Extract save the tag information in an OMVS file for
historical purposes.

Improved progress status messages on dataset/file rename.

Support the use of a hypen (-) in a z/OS dataset name.

On the Current Repository SET command panel add the option to change the
dataset prefix. The new prefix must have the same number of qualifiers and
will result in all the z/OS datasets being renamed along with any OMVS files
based on the prefix qualifier ignore value.

                             ZIGI Release Notes
                                Version 2.5

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

  /--------------------- From ZIGI 2.0 ------------------------\
  | The former use of -M with CP to convert the @#$ special    |
  | characters to/from z/OS for unix has been replaced by      |
  | escaping those characters where required to preserve them. |
  \------------------------------------------------------------/

Implement new feature 'zigiflow' to help the user make controlled
changes.  The ZIGI Flow feature will assist with making updates to
repositories.  The general use case for using ZIGI flow is as follows:

    - Step 1: Start a new ZIGI flow
    - Step 2: Make all your changes, commit
    - Step 3: Finish your ZIGI flow

Implemented a basic conversion capability to convert a cloned non-ZIGI
configured git repository into a ZIGI repository. For this to work the
repository must have been cloned by ZIGI so that ZIGI 'knows' about it
and the following requirements of the repository must be met:

   - Each PDS is mapped to a subdirectory under the repository root
   - Each PDS member is a file in the appropriate sub-directory
       (e.g. main.asm in the asm directory)
   - Binary files must end in .bin
   - Only files, either sequential or PDS members, within the repository
      must conform to z/OS dataset naming conventions or they are
      treated as OMVS files.

After creating a new local repository open the Add Dataset instead of
requiring the user to do that (saves a step).

Provide the option to specify the codeset for character encoding during
Clone and Create repository processing. The default is IBM-1047 if not
specified.

Replace the intrusive menus on the table display panels with an Action
Bar set of menus. Also added on those panels an F3 under the scroll
amount to facilitate point-and-shoot. The O option is still available
to bring up a context sensitive command options menu and the / row
selection will bring up a context sensitive row selection options menu.

Implement new commands STASH to Stash Push to save the current workspace
and revert to the most recent Commit level.  And STASHL to list all
saved Stashes with these options:

    - Branch to create a new branch from a saved stash
    - Remove to drop a saved stash
    - Show to show the stash summary
    - Diff to show the summary and diffs
    - Pop to restore a saved stash

Provided an option to enhance point-and-shoot in the ZIGI Config panel.
Option S will leave things as they are. Option P will enable
point-and-shoot so that a double click outside the table will bring up
the Options command selection popup, and a double click inside the table
will bring up the row selection popup.

Change REFRESH command to REPLACE and add FETCH command for Current
Repository. Only Fetch when a repository is selected or on demand.

For Removes (deletes) add option to turn off prompting.

New ZIGI Cheat Sheet (pdf) and ZIGI User's Guide (pdf, azw3, mobi, epub)
have been created and are new with v2.5 which can be found at the ZIGI
wiki:

   https://github.com/wizardofzos/zigi/wiki/6.-Documentation

Update to the Current Repository commands menu to add ADDALL. This
command will do a git add for all Untracked or Modified datasets or
files.

Update to the PDS Member commands menu to add ADDALL. This command will
do a git add for all Untracked or Modified members.

Add a check to all ISPF panels asking for a userid to verify if the user
enters an 8 character userid that the system supports the 8 character
userid.

On the PDS Member table a new line option of AB to add the member in
binary format.

On the ADDDSN table an option for a PDS of AB to add the dataset as a
binary dataset. If a partitioned dataset will contain both text and
binary members then add the dataset as text (option S or A) and the from
the Current Repository menu select the dataset and then use the AB (add
binary) row selection for the binary members.

Fix for Bitbucket users where the clone clipboard copy contains 'git
clone' before the SSH info. The 'git clone' will now be automatically
removed to allow the Bitbucket user to just copy from Bitbucket and
paste into ZIGI for clone or remote add.

Add new TAG command on the Current Repository menu to add a git tag to
the current repository. Both the lightweight tags, without comments, and
annotated tags, with a short comment.

Add new TAGLIST command on the Current Repository menu to display a list
of all tags with an option to show the full tag details, or to create a
new branch from the tag level.

Add SORT option for the Local Repository display to sort the repository
list by Repository name, Prefix, or the Last used Date. One or two
columns may be sorted and the sort order is remembered when ZIGI ends
and is used at the next ZIGI start. The sort popup panel now supports
both the primary and secondary sort columns.

Added an optional tag field to the commit panel. Now a tag can be added
along with the commit.

Added a new Category field to the repository summary that is displayed
on the Local Repository table display. It is a sort column like the
other columns on the display.

New option to hide the splash screen if desired, and to restore it.

Additional validation on the Clone and Create panels to validate the
OMVS directory that is specified actually exists.

                                Version 2.0

                         New Features and Functions
                         --------------------------

  /------------------------------------------------------------\

  \------------------------------------------------------------/

Update to the GITLOG prompt to include, or exclude, diff's in the
report.

A new GITCMD dialog that enables the execution of any valid Git command
within the active Git repository. A command history is maintained so
that commands may be reused. The command results are then browsed or
viewed.  If the command table grows beyond the point the user is
comfortable with it then a CLEAR command is available to start over.

Grep processing has been enhanced with an option to view the results in
a report mode using the raw grep results or in a Dataset/File view where
the results are presented summarized by dataset or file. The display
allows selecting the individual dataset, or file, for Edit, Browse, or
View.

History is a dataset, PDS member, or file selection option that will
display a list of all commits for that element. From the table display
the user can select using C to view the commit entry, including the
diffs.  Selecting using S will view the historical version of the
element. While in ISPF View the user has access to all ISPF Edit
commands, including  Compare, Copy, and Create.

Merge supports merging another local branch into the current branch.
Merge conflicts can be resolved using ISPF Edit Compare or using a
customized Edit display that highlights the merge conflicts using the
Git provided conflict markers. At this time a merge performs a full
refresh of ALL datasets (this is planned to become a selective refresh
in a future release).

OMVS subdirectories with files are now supported. These directories and
files must be added outside of ZIGI at this time and when ZIGI starts it
will recognize those as untracked. The untracked directories, and/or
files, must then be added to the Git staging index for management by
Git.

Rename an element will rename the z/OS dataset, z/OS PDS member, OMVS
file, and any ISPF statistics file. It will also perform a git mv
(rename) so all Git information about the original will be retained with
the new name.

Remove an element will delete the z/OS dataset, z/OS PDS member, OMVS
file, and any ISPF statistics file. It will also perform a git rm
(remove) so all git information about the element will be deleted.

Added new row selection option of / to tables where it made sense. The /
will bring up a popup menu for the available section options. These
popups include an entry field and point-and-shoot capabilities.

Added new menu toggle to Basic and Pro that will remove ALL menus.

A new command option on those panels is O which will display a popup
command selection panel that support both an entry field and
point-and-shoot.

When the git log is viewed the git diff's will not be colorized with
blue for inserts and red for deletions. This only works when viewing and
not with browsing.

Update Pull processing to only refresh the z/OS datasets that are
updated during the pull process, and only the PDS members that were
updated. If more than 25% of the PDS members are updated then the full
PDS is refreshed.  Before ALL z/OS datasets were refreshed.

On the Local Repository panel the option to use 'S repo' to select a
repository from the command line. The 'repo' is case sensitive. This
allows for faster access to a repository.

Changed the debug logging when the ZIGIDEBG DD is present to log to a
file in the users home directory named zigidebug.d(julian
date).t(hhmmss). On exit from ZIGI a USS directory list (3.17) will be
presented to the user with just these files from which the user can
browse/edit/delete.

Update the Config panel to prompt the user for the default number of
generations to use when allocating every Partitioned Dataset during
Clone, Pull, or Refresh processing.

Update the Repository Delete dialog to enable the deletions of the
repositories z/OS datasets and add an additional entry field to confirm
the repository delete is really wanted.

Change the Current Repository ADD command to ADDDSN since that is what
it does to differentiate it from the Add selection option which performs
a git add.

Implement a new SNAPSHOT option for the Current Repository that creates
an Escrow version of the repository - the z/OS datasets and the OMVS
files. This is outside of ZIGI and git. It also generates a tag at the
time of the snapshot to enable easy access to the git repository for
reviewing information.

Implemented binary support. On the 'Add Dataset' panel ZIGI now supports
the 'AB' command. This will do the same as the trusted 'A' command (add
a dataset) to ZIGI, however this file will be treated as binary. This
allows you to have ZIGI manage your XMIT files, or OBJECT files. Load
modules obviously not supported. Take note, for a PDS this means ALL the
members in the PDS will be treated as binary. (this also updates and
commits the
.gitattributes file)

In the element History view a new option to Recover the historical
source is now available. It only works for z/OS datasets. Both PDS
members and PS datasets may be recovered. OMVS historical recovery is
not supported at this time. A PDS member must be recovered to a PDS
member, even if the recovery dataset is being allocated new.

Update Rollback with two new commands. ONLY (O) will limit the display
of commits to those with the provided string in the title (e.g. O roll)
in a case insensitive compare. REFRESH (R) will refresh the table back
to all entries.

New Undo (U) selection for datasets, OMVS files, and PDS members. This
will undo any changes made prior to a commit. After a commit the
Rollback option or the History Recover option will be required.

Speeded up the ADDDSN dialog initialization by replacing the use of
LISTC with IBM's sample IGGCSIRX code that was modified to return only
the dataset names.

Added to the ADDDSN dialog a Find/RFind capability to easily find the
dataset names to be added. Find works with a string that is searched
anywhere in the dataset name (e.g. F PDS will find the 1st occurrence of
a dataset with PDS in the name and repeat find (F5) find the next).
