Thats fine, but not what i am talking about. If someone starts an update, in a branch in github but reaches a point where it is not quite done, but wishes to discuss it with reviewers, it makes infinite more sense to submit that as a WIP MR instead of converting it to a patch and submitting that to trac. That, frankly, would be absurb. Chris > > If we do want to convert our Trac tickets to GitHub Issues, I still have the > conversion scripts I prepared at that time. >
