The Sourcetree team are proud to announce an Enterprise version of Sourcetree for Windows aimed at organizations who run managed environments to install, update, and manage app installations at scale. Admins now have insight into who is using Sourcetree in their organization, and greater control over where and when Sourcetree is installed and updated, with no impact to the end user’s Sourcetree experience they know and love.

Installation and managed updates at scale

Utilizing Sourcetree’s new MSI file, admins can now install Sourcetree across their organization’s Windows machines using computer management software. It is now possible to specify the directory it installs into and we’ve given greater control to admins in terms of managing updates to new versions of Sourcetree. And with the new ability to pre-configure Sourcetree settings for all users within their organization, admins can now get users up and running with Sourcetree in an easy manner and manage updates across all machines in one fell swoop.

Easier registration with Bitbucket Server and Data Center

For organizations that use Bitbucket Server or Data Center, it’s easier than ever for users to register Sourcetree and get started by utilizing their Bitbucket Server or Data Center login. Users now have another registration option in order to use the product, reducing the time it takes to get up and running with Sourcetree.

Simply head over to the Sourcetree for Windows Enterprise page and download the latest MSI to get started today. New releases of Sourcetree for Enterprise are announced via Atlassian Community.

Download Sourcetree for Enterprise Windows

The power of Sourcetree lies in its ability to simplify how you manage changes to your source code in a visual way, whether you’re new to coding and trying to master the basics, or an experienced hand working with a team around a complex codebase.

We also speed up your workflow by helping you interact with your repositories directly from Sourcetree with a seamless connection to in-house and remote hosting services like Bitbucket Cloud, Bitbucket Server, and GitHub.com.

With Sourcetree 3.0 for both macOS and Windows we’re proud to announce support for additional remote hosting services, namely GitHub Enterprise, Microsoft Visual Studio Team Services, and GitLab (Cloud, CE, EE).

• SSH management: Sourcetree will generate and upload your SSH key (macOS) or manage directly via Putty (Windows) [if supported]
• Repository avatars: see the icons you’ve set to differentiate your bookmarks at a glance [if supported]
• Remote repositories: Remote repositories are viewable in an easily filterable list to manage and when cloned via Sourcetree they are setup for use
• Repository creation: configure new repositories quickly and easily, setup for Sourcetree from the start [available features vary per service]
• Create pull requests: push the branch and then go directly to a new PR in the hosting service’s Web UI
• Single click access: jump straight to your current repository in its hosting service for advanced operations

Getting started with Sourcetree and your favorite services are now easier than ever. Sign in with a Bitbucket account (Cloud or Server) to register, configure an option or two, and you’re ready to go. You’ll be able to immediately clone a repository or you can visit the Accounts preferences section to add the ones you use most often.

Sourcetree 3.0 for macOS and Windows is currently available as a beta, and will slowly roll out to users in a few weeks time. Download the beta today and let us know what you think via our beta mailing list!

3.0 Beta Downloads

Throughout the past year we listened carefully to all our Windows users and we’re excited to bring you the two most highly requested features in 2019! In this post we’ll take a sneak peek and provide visibility into what you can expect soon.

Dark theme

Our top request for Sourcetree for Windows is a “non retina burning” dark theme to better blend in with other developer tools. This became more acute when we debuted a dark theme in Sourcetree 2.6 for Mac over a year ago to much acclaim.

As you can see in the following demo, now every part of the Sourcetree for Windows UI is now rendered in cooler colors and the icons are appropriately swapped with either inverse colors or a cooler palette overall. Currently we’re iterating on the final colors, adding in appropriate settings, and overall polish.

Repositories sidebar/split view

In the 2.0 release for Windows we simplified the UI complexity for both design and performance improvements based on app usage and user feedback. Part of that included replacing the sidebar – which contained a nested list of local repositories, provided an overview of their status, and provided quick access by mouse or keyboard – with what we call the “new tab experience.”

While well received in general we heard from some that they weren’t able to be as efficient with this new navigational experience. Since then the ticket for its return become our second highest Windows request. For many it remains a reason to stick with the last 1.9 release due to the potential for disruption.

Empowering our users and ensuring they have a pleasant development experience remains our foremost priority. To achieve that we explored many different options while working in hand in hand with our passionate users and we’re excited to share the results of that effort.

Coming soon

These aren’t just shiny demos though. While we don’t have a specific ETA to share right now for either of the features it’s safe to say you’ll see them released during the first half of 2019. We’ve already started sharing betas for the sidebar with our friends in the Sourcetree Beta Program to gather feedback and we’d appreciate yours too.

Join the Sourcetree beta program

Today we are deprecating a Sourcetree-specific portion of the Atlassian Account sign-in API and it will be unreachable after 16 Oct 2019.

One year ago we shipped an all-new onboarding experience in 3.0 for both Mac and Windows powered by a Bitbucket login in your default browser. Prior to that, in early 2018, we tweaked the in-app registration process on Mac to use a new endpoint provided by the Atlassian Account team to achieve a more seamless experience. We are now migrating users away from this individual endpoint as it will allow their team to deliver a better Atlassian Account experience overall.

Mitigation

1. Download and install the latest release of Sourcetree for Mac.
2. If you are unable to do so for any reason, download an applicable 2.x release and then perform the following steps in Terminal to setup prior to launching the app:

• run defaults write com.TorusKnot.SourceTreeNotMAS agreedToEULA2 YES
• then defaults write com.TorusKnot.SourceTreeNotMAS EmailHash DeprecatedEndpoint2019
• finally defaults write com.TorusKnot.SourceTreeNotMAS completedWelcomeWizardVersion 3

Impact

There is no impact to existing installations of Sourcetree for Mac.

The following Sourcetree for Mac releases will require mitigation as noted above:

• 2.7
• 2.7.1
• 2.7.2
• 2.7.3
• 2.7.4
• 2.7.5
• 2.7.6

Note: The registration and Atlassian Account portion of the Welcome Wizard will no longer complete after 16 Oct 2019.
