ReadyAPI not loading datasource XML files correctly
Running ReadyAPI 3.41.1, tried downgrading to 3.41.0 and the issue still persists. The information stored in source control relating to the data source (possibly other things as well) does not load correctly on the ReadyAPI UI when importing the composite project: Picture below shows the XML file for one of my test cases, highlighted at the bottom is data source XML data that is restricted in length, and has a max length of 50 This picture shows what is loaded into the datasource on the UI when I import the composite project. Note that Address1 is not length restricted at all. If i save the project right after importing the composite project I get prompted that I made changes on my git window which I haven't, has anyone had this issue before? I also see properties that I've deleted before still in the XML files.What does the settings.xml file do for the API folders?
(composite project) Inside of the API folders there is a settings.xml file, and in that file there is a con:content line for CDATA. Ultimately what does this line accomplish in the project? Is this file something we can safely add to a git ignore file? Cause this seems to just be an aggregate of all of API.xml files inside the same folder. Some back story is that were getting a lot of merge conflicts with this line, as a fun little test I completely removed the line and relaunched the project and everything still worked/loaded which is why I'm asking this question. I also saw some options that we can turn on in https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/testing/teamwork.html for merging changes which may be a better approach
