Note that we will still be signing SourceTree with our Apple developer certificate so SourceTree should work fine with the default settings of Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion when it’s released.įor the full story of what forced us to take this disappointing decision, keep reading. New updates will be available, for free, directly from (and via the in-app update). We will continue to monitor the situation in case Apple improve their sandboxing implementation or revise their rules. Complying with the sandboxing rules would force us to change SourceTree in ways that would remove features, damage the usability of the app, and hurt our users therefore, we will no longer submit SourceTree updates to the Mac App Store after March 1st, 2012. Unfortunately, this will disallow important SourceTree functionality that was previously acceptable under store rules. On March 1st, Apple will change the rules of the Mac App Store to require all applications to run inside of a ‘sandbox’. Hopefully they’re realising the difficulties they’re creating for developers and will address some of the remaining concerns in this time. ![]() ![]() Update : Apple have now extended the deadline to June 1st.
