I fully agree with the difficulty of seeing who's working on what when no one
bothers to assign bugs to themselves.
I'm guessing it's not possible to make it so that when a pull request is
received that fixes a bug (in the way that the
newly integrated approach works for commits) it automatically assigns the issue
to the user?
With sufficient time and energy, it's all possible. There's sufficient hooks
to write the software. But waiting for
the pull request to mark the bug as assigned is too late, imho. I don't see it
as at all unreasonable to ask people
that decide to work on a bug to assign it to themselves. It only takes a
couple button clicks and they'll already have
the bug open.
It's not true of me -- I'm nearly always off-line while I'm working on
bugs. That might not be true of anyone else, though, and since at the
moment all CTFE are implicitly assigned to me, it's not really a problem
right now.
Anyway, if we want to make ASSIGNED meaningful, a mandatory first step
would be change all bugs below number 1000 back to NEW.
