CVS commit comment no longer populated from task after upgrade to Mars [message #1701716]

Hi,

after I upgraded to Eclipse Mars, I no longer get the CVS commit comment populated from the active Mylyn Bugzilla task.

I have installed:

Eclipse Mars CDT edition
Mylyn Context Connector: C/C++ Development
Mylyn Context Connector: Eclipse IDE
Mylyn Task List
Mylyn Task-Focused Interface
Mylyn Versions Connector: CVS
Mylyn Versions Connector: Git

In the preferences under Mylyn, Team I have the same Commit Comment Template that I used with all previous Eclipse/Mylyn versions:

${task.key}: ${task.description}
${task.url}

What is missing to get the CVS commit comment populated again from the active Mylyn Bugzilla task?

Thanks
Stephan

Hi,

CVS support has been moved to a separate feature. You'll need to install Mylyn Context Connector: CVS Support (org.eclipse.mylyn.team.cvs).

Cheers,
Sam

Thanks for the suggestion, Sam. Unfortunately, I can't find the "Mylyn Context Connector: CVS Support" when I select the "Mars - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars" update site. Must I get that from another update site?

Note that I forgot one relevant plugin in my initial question. In addition to the plugins listed there I also have installed the "Mylyn Context Connector: Team Support" plugin. So the full list of Mylyn plugins that I have installed is:

Mylyn Context Connector: C/C++ Development
Mylyn Context Connector: Eclipse IDE
Mylyn Context Connector: Team Support
Mylyn Task List
Mylyn Task-Focused Interface
Mylyn Versions Connector: CVS
Mylyn Versions Connector: Git

You can get it from the Mylyn update site: http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/releases/latest

Got it, now it works again, thank you Sam.

Was it a deliberate decision to leave the "Mylyn Context Connector: CVS Support" plugin out from the Mars release, e.g. because CVS is on the decline?

No. When we created the new feature, it just didn't occur to us to add it to the Mars release, but since the Eclipse CVS client is still there, we will probably add the Mylyn feature for SR1. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Today I upgraded to Neon, and the populating of the CVS comment from the Mylyn task is not working again. It looks like the "Mylyn Context Connector: CVS Support" has been left out from the Neon download site http://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon.

As with Mars installing the Mylyn CVS Context Connector from http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/releases/latest resolves the problem for Neon.
