How to get fixlet modification notes in Big Fix console?

(imported topic written by ktm_200091)

One of my biggest gripes about big fix is the “source fixlet differs” message found while looking through a baseline.

What irks me about it is there is no documentation of what changed and when.

Is there any way to have this documentation added to the description field so one can know why things change and the baseline needs to be re-syncronized?

Hey KTM,

We announce whenever we make changes to Fixlets… see:

http://support.bigfix.com/cgi-bin/kbdirect.pl?id=517

You can also search our mailing list using our search mechanism at http://seach.bigfix.com

Your point is well-taken though… We have had requests for us to keep the Fixlet history available in the console itself to make it easy to look at when/what changed… We think this is a good idea and it is on the list to add… so the only question is a matter of priority against all the other stuff we are working on that you guys asked for… :slight_smile:

I will add your note to our feature request system.
