v0.8.6 Wet Mouse

The 0.8.6 release is now available. It updates connection settings to allow for more flexible wait times on the server, as well as some bug fixes. You can download it from the IntelliJ plugin interface, or from github.

• Change "maximum timeout" setting meaning.
  • The "maximum timeout" user setting hasn't been used since the 0.7
    release, so it now means the maximum socket time to live, which
    allows the user to avoid a potential issue with the underlying
    Perforce API. (#85)
• Add lock timeout user setting.
  • Allows the user to adjust how long the plugin waits for the connection
    until the next one comes free.
  • Useful for users that have a very slow connection to the server.
• Bug fixes.
  • Went back to actually using the "reconnect with each request" setting.
    Before, this setting was ignored and all connections were reconnected
    before being used. Users with slow connections should see a performance
    boost with this disabled.
  • Clarified error message when reverting files while working offline.
  • Reduced number of false error messages when the plugin hasn't loaded the
    client spec when requests are made.
  • Included more debug logging to help understand issues around connections.
