is there a way to deploy a project with circular dependencies? Currently we have a few field level dependencies on customsegments that comingle with each other

If you work it out, please let me know. Copy To Account fails on most things in one of my instances because there's a circular dep. Reported it as a bug a few years ago, but there's been no movement on it. If everyone could report it as a bug, that'd be great. Might get seen to sooner. It's very annoying having to manually deploy things

Are you getting an actual error when validating/deploying? I get warnings about circular dependencies but am able to successfully deploy. It’s almost impossible to not have circular dependencies on larger projects

if is truly throwing an error blocking the deploy, the only solution I have found is to trial-and-error the ordering of individual sdf objects in deploy.xml eventually can come up with some order where it is "happy" and will deploy successfully (but can be a huge pain in large/complicated projects)

If you’re deploying manually you could always just deploy one of the dependencies first and then follow with rest
