Hi Alain, a potential bug has been reported in version 5836 - a failure in the integration of MetaEditor with Git: https://www.mql5.com/pt/forum/510148
I haven't tested it, but I think that if a user in the mql5 repository tracks files that come with the terminal, this will block git clone. Because "$git clone" is a safe command and won't overwrite existing files.

See the attached screenshots in the comment at the link below:

It's clearly visible there that the "standard" terminal files have been added to the repository.

Most likely, this is the problem. But, again, I haven't tested this.

Hi Vladislav, thanks for the input! The hypothesis would make sense in isolation, but the OP confirmed in the thread that the exact same repository works perfectly with build 5833 on his older MT5 instances - same files tracked, same operations. Only the new instances on build 5836 fail. So whatever the cause is, it must be something that changed between 5833 and 5836, not the repository contents themselves - unless version 5836 changed how it handles conflicts with existing files, I don't know...

I just tested this. My theory was wrong. Adding "standard" files to the mql5 repository is not a problem and does not lead to cloning failure.

Thank you for the test and the update. 👍

New MetaTrader 5 platform version 5830: general improvements

Is the mql5 login name in the editor settings case-sensitive, and the actual login registered on the site?

Git in Linux is case-sensitive.

The screenshot shows that the registered login is Giannetti, while the real registered login is giannetti.

We will check such cases on our part.

nit picky bug in 5833

: in terminal window, history tab: the color of the scroll bar; when i change the color them from black to white and white again, the scroll bar does not change; ie color is black when i have changed the them to white, and is white when i change the theme to black.

This has been fixed, will be available from next public beta.
