Katalon Studio is not in sync with Github pull operations

Hi Team,

Whenever taking Git pull, Katalon studio is not in sync as expected, had to restart Katalon to get latest changes received from git pull.

Could you look into that.

Don’t use git from katalon studio UI. Use any git utility like git bash and do all action from git bash command line

I think people forget that it isn’t an instant operation - maybe because there’s no indication of progress. Depending on network speed and size of changes there may be a delay. If it’s critical I look at the Git history to ensure it’s up to date

We understand you’re experiencing issues with Katalon Studio not reflecting Git pull changes immediately, requiring a restart. This is a known issue that has been addressed in recent Katalon Studio releases.

To resolve this, we strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version of Katalon Studio. While specific release notes may not explicitly mention this exact problem as a single fix, several updates have significantly improved the application’s handling of file system changes, including those triggered by Git operations. These improvements enhance stability and reduce the need for restarts.

Here’s how to proceed:

  1. Check your current Katalon Studio version: Go to Help > About Katalon Studio to see your current version number.

  2. Download the latest version: Visit the link to Katalon Studio downloads page and download the newest stable release.

  3. Upgrade: Install the new version, ensuring you back up your existing projects beforehand. After upgrading, perform a git pull and observe if the synchronization issue persists.

If the problem continues after upgrading to the latest version, please provide the following information to help us further investigate:

  • Your Katalon Studio version: (After upgrading)
  • Your operating system: (e.g., Windows 10, macOS Monterey, Ubuntu 20.04)
  • Your Git client: (e.g., Git Bash, Sourcetree, GitHub Desktop)
  • Steps to reproduce the issue: A detailed description of the steps leading to the synchronization problem.
  • Katalon Studio Logs: You can find these logs within the Katalon Studio installation directory.

We appreciate your report and are committed to providing a smooth Git integration experience. Upgrading to the latest version is the most effective solution.
