Unique names for SCM Baselines

Current behavior:

  • In SCM there is a trigger "Ensure Snapshot Names are Unique" that restricts the creation of Snapshots with the same name on the same stream
  • For baselines there is no option to restrict the creation of a baseline with the same name on a specific component

Desired behavior:

  • Provide the possibility to restrict also the baseline creations with the same name for one component. Example if I have a component A with a baseline "Release 1" if I try to create another baseline for component A with the same name "Release 1" I should get an error.
  • The second improvement is for the "Ensure Snapshot Names are Unique" trigger - we would like this to be configurable to the entire project Area if needed, and check the uniquity of the Snapshot name across all Streams in the same Project Area

 

Remark: The ability to require unique identifiers is generally desirable. This should also apply to streams, for example.
