Comment:
Hi Kamil, can you not overwrite `get_full_name` to return `""` (an empty
string, which is False-y and should achieve the same thing as overwriting
the template)?
This feels slightly related to #28089. I think the docs around
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/auth/customizing/#django.contrib.auth.models.CustomUser.get_full_name
CustomUser.get_full_name()] might want an update to add that the default
is a concatenation of the first and last name rather than "If implemented,
this appears alongside the username in an object’s history" (which doesn't
feel 100% accurate).
The request to completely drop `get_full_name` from the admin log entries
would need a wider discussion, as so I will close this as wontfix for now,
please raise this on the [https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/5
Django forum] to gain a consensus that this should be updated. 👍
