Hey SCM-Manager Community,

today we can proudly present the first version of the SCM-Manager CLI client. We also fixed lots of small and some bigger bugs which were reported by you.

CLI

We and some community members have been wishing for a dedicated CLI for SCM-Manager for several years, and we finally got the opportunity to build a first version of it. The CLI client is available for many package managers and as a direct download on our website…

Hey SCM-Manager Community,

Hey SCM-Manager Community,

Maybe you have heard about a new vulnerability regarding Expat which is likely as dangerous as Log4Shell.

The SCM-Manager is only affected if you have the PlantUML-Plugin installed. We highly recommend uninstalling this plugin until we can provide a fixed version. If your SCM-Manager is running inside the Cloudogu Ecosystem you also need to take down the PlantUML Dogu…

Hey SCM-Manager Community,

We're sure you've heard about the vulnerability in log4j called Log4Shell. As far as we can say, SCM-Manager is not affected by this, because log4j is not used in SCM-Manager (for logging, we use Logback).

However, if you have installed plugins from external sources, you can check whether log4j is used somewhere by running this little script using the script plugin…

Hey SCM-Manager Community,

once again we improved the accessibility by cleaning up our html structure and improve the screen reader support. Besides, we also created two new plugins which may be useful for your workflows with SCM-Manager.

Gotenberg Plugin

Some weeks ago we learned about Gotenberg as an easy-setup, powerful server to convert office binary files like docx, xlsx and pptx to pdf. We created the Gotenberg Plugin to integrate this…
