Add the ability to format relevance with indentation and new lines so it is easier to read.
Some relevancies can be long and complicated to follow if its all jammed together in one massive paragraph.
When companies have > 1 bigfix instance (think 1 prod 1 dev or even more) and I develop a fixlet/task/baseline/analysis in a dev environment, how does one get the finished fixlet/task/baseline/analysis distributed to the other instances.
Let’s add a way in the bigfix console and webui, to be able to clone a fixlet/task/baseline/analysis from one bigfix environment to one or more other environments with the press of a button.
Different versions of bigfix would be supported only if the format of the content was acceptable to the target version, like sending v10 content to v9 system or v9 content to a v10 system.
I don’t see it used very often, but it is actually acceptable to use format/spacing and even comments in relevance clauses - it’s only the Fixlet Debugger, on the QNA tab, that requires it to be a single line. The following is valid for a single fixlet relevance or analysis property, including comments delimit by /* and */
Having a Git repository back-end to BigFix would allow versioning of fixlets as you modify them, and also allow you to easily share fixlets between BigFix instances. You could also have different branches for different system versions, if needed.
