Checkout branch deploys changes
Issue #303
resolved
I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug. Regardless it poses an issue with us since we work in shared dev orgs at the moment.
If I'm working on FEAT-1 and make changes to MyClass1.cls, then checkout a new branch (FEAT-2), MyClass1.cls will be deployed automatically and my changes will be overwritten. This seems to be triggered immediately after switching branches.
I've unchecked what I thought would prevent this in the Synchronization settings in the IDE (see attachment).
The current workaround is to completely exit the IDE before switching branches, then re-open the IDE afterwards. Of course this is not ideal and renders the integrated VCS feature of the IDE useless.
What are your thoughts?

Thanks Scott! I didn't mean to use such strong language when I said it renders it useless, so please forgive me.

It's definitely an issue that needs to be addressed. I'm not sure I'd say that it renders the integrated VCS features useless, but it certainly presents a problem around a key one. Let me take a look and see what I can do to avoid auto-deployment on those types of events. Hopefully this is something I can resolve in short cycle. I'll keep you posted here.
