Bug Reports

Detailed Bug Reports

In case of a crash, SmartGit offers to send a detailed bug report directly to syntevo.com. If you prefer to have a look at the file first, you may locate the given ZIP file in the file system, inspect its contents, remove possibly sensitive data and finally send the file by email to [email protected].

Crash Footprints

SmartGit by default automatically transfers the footprint of a crash to a crash server for the purpose of quality assurance. The sent information contains details about the user machine (e.g. version of operating system), SmartGit version/build, the JVM state and where the error occurred. It contains no potentially sensitive information like user names, email addresses, file contents, file paths or server names.

A crash footprint file looks like this:

This crash footprint has been created automatically and will be sent to
http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/bugstat for the purposes of quality assurance
for SmartGit. This footprint does not contain any sensitive information
nor any information from your repositories.
