Re: Trac to GitLab migration underway

Hi all, Question, how do I view only Windows issues? I see there is a windows tag but nothing is linked to it. And tickets contain sporadically the "Trac Metadata" field. So I'm not sure how to get the same overview I used on trac. Kind regards, Tamar On Tue, Mar 12, 2019, 18:42 Richard Eisenberg wrote:

Aha. That's exactly what I wanted. If that note is added to an issue when an MR mentions the issue number, I'm quite satisfied.

To be honest, how this list is formed is a bit of a mystery to me. The fact that !525 is included is not surprises: !525 mentions #16347 in its description. However, !436 is a bit less obvious since it does not mention #16347 at all. My hypothesis is that it is transitively included via #16344, which does mention #16437 and is related to it.

Transitive closures have a habit of sometimes getting large. But we'll tackle that problem when/if it comes up.

Indeed, as I mentioned earlier this may be a bit of a hard thing to accomplish in the near-term. One measure we could take to ensure that tests aren't forgotten is to include a "field" in the default merge request description which contributors would be asked to fill in with the names of the tests that cover their change.

That's not a bad starting point. But it will hit only new contributors, right? Or will I be filling out such a form too (it's been a few weeks since my last patch submission, I'm afraid.)

Thanks! Richard
