On September 5, 2024, Coalesce will enable the Git Repo Format Upgrade . After September 5, 2024, all Git repos will be automatically updated.
What is the Git Repo Format Upgrade?
We have updated the way files are committed into Git. Previously it was split into a data.yml and the specific nodes.yml files. Now you can see the changes for:
Node Types
Environment Mappings
Subgraphs
Jobs
Macros
Packages
The upgrade is required for Packages and CLI use.
How to Opt-In
Organization Administrators can turn it on for the whole organization. Go to Org Settings > Preferences and Enable Git Repository Format Update. Once enabled, all Workspace users will be prompted to switch to the new format. They won't be able to make commits until they switch to the new format.
Users will be notified the upgrade is available, but won't be able to upgrade.
Previously committed metadata can still be deployed after the upgrade.
Packages
You must be using the new Git Repo Format Upgrade to use Coalesce Packages.
CLI
If you use the CLI and HAVE NOT upgraded to the new Git Repo Format, you have until September 5, 2024 to upgrade your CLI. After September 5, 2024, the Git Repo Format Upgrade will be turned on for all Coalesce organizations and any CLI versions below 7.0.18 won't be compatible with Coalesce versions 7.2.x and above.
If you have upgraded to the new Git Repo Format and use the Coalesce CLI, please upgrade your CLI version to prevent interruptions in workflow.
