Apply Changes does not reapply changes after a clone #14

Hi, I would like to understand more or Apply Changes works. What is it using to know what commits it has to apply?

I ran into many issues where after a clone we were reapplying changes from GIT but newly changes that had in GIT were not reapplied.

Here are the steps (timeline):

  1. Application is published from dev to app. repo.
  2. Application is installed to production using app repo.
  3. Developers continue to work in dev and commit new code in GIT.
  4. Clone is done from prod to dev environment. So an 'Old' version of the application is brought over back to dev.
  5. We try to reapply changes from GIT to get the new features that the developer made prior to the clone.
  6. New changes do not appear in dev but are in GIT.

I hope it is clear enough...and please get back to me. I want to understand how the apply changes work so we can fix the issues when we clone back to dev.

thanks,

Marc
