New issue 2483 by [email protected]: Minor tweak to review request email
notification template to include repository name along with review group
http://code.google.com/p/reviewboard/issues/detail?id=2483
Version: 1.6.3
OS: RHEL 5.7
Browser: Chrome, Firefox (not relevant in this case)
I patched the
reviewboard/templates/notifications/review_request_email.{html,txt} files
in our deployment to include the related repository name, such as in the
following line:
<div>Review request for {% reviewer_list review_request %}
({{review_request.repository.name}}).</div>
This is useful for anyone who ever shares review groups across multiple
repositories. In our case, we have several dozen related small repos that
all share a single review group, and we found it often difficult to
differentiate one from another in the review request emails. We would
previously need to actually view the review request in order to find the
repository name. I realize that creating/managing distinctly named review
groups for every repository would avoid needing to add this info to the
notification, but we have found it simpler to maintain a smaller number of
review groups.
I found a rejected enhancement request for more formal template
customization support. So, I simply modified the template files directly
and thought I'd submit this suggestion for the minor tweak so that I won't
need to patch after each upgrade (and also because I suspect this might be
generally useful).
