Plugin adds a new link to project administration's component and version section, “Component Versions”. This new link allows you to define which versions are applicable for which components and also component specific release date and release status for the version. If you do not define any component version mapping; version selection works as before, that means you can select any version for any component for that project.
You can add new component specific versions using "Create Component Version" button on the right top of the screen. Once a component specific version is defined you can modify its start date, release date and description inline. You can filter component versions list using free text search. Just write a few character and only the component versions containing the entered search text in their version name, or component name are displayed. If you click on '...' button a context menu with following actions will be displayed:
- Reported Issues: Redirects to issue navigator which shows all issues reported against this component version.
- Fixed Issues: Redirects to issue navigator which shows all issues fixed in this component version.
- Release Notes: Shows release notes for component version, containing all issues with fix version and component matching the component version selected. Details are explained in "Release Notes" section.
- Release/Unrelease: Releases/Unreleases component version. If the version you are releasing contains unresolved issues, you can move this issues to a new component version.
