[Tracker-discuss] [issue383] Add Devguide component

2011-03-26 Thread Nick Coghlan
New submission from Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com: Pretty simple - it would be good to have a Devguide component in the tracker, separate from the normal Documentation component. Useful for things like: http://bugs.python.org/issue11690 -- messages: 1933 nosy: brett.cannon, ncoghlan

[Tracker-discuss] [issue428] Patch generator and dependent feature branches

2011-11-24 Thread Nick Coghlan
New submission from Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com: The diff generator seems to get confused when the most recent merge with default was via a different branch: http://bugs.python.org/issue11682 The pep380 branch in my BitBucket sandbox depends on the new feature in the get_opinfo branch, so

2012-05-22 Thread Nick Coghlan
Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com added the comment: Yeah, something simple like your first suggestion should work reasonably well. Since the dependencies and superceder nouns are ambiguous about the direction of the relationship, and aren't particularly common words anyway, it's probably

2012-05-23 Thread Nick Coghlan
Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com added the comment: I'm not a big fan either, but it's the simplest option available that displays the relevant information. Here's a more complex option that may work: 1. Keep the existing Dependencies/Superceder fields for editing purposes (perhaps changing

[Tracker-discuss] [issue352] delete button for queries does not work

2013-05-07 Thread Nick Coghlan
Nick Coghlan added the comment: This hit me as well (because rerunning a query with the same name in the saved field creates a new copy rather than overwriting the original). Potentially related is the fact that in addition to delete not working, the dropdowns don't let me change the query

Nick Coghlan added the comment: OK, I've created the "easy (C)" keyword: http://bugs.python.org/keyword18 I've left the existing "easy" keyword alone for the time being, as the Python vs Documentation split is already implied by the component, but changing the keyword to &

2018-06-15 Thread Nick Coghlan
Nick Coghlan added the comment: Issue-tracker-only repos technically aren't sourceless, but the trick is that the only file you create is a README, and perhaps some issue templates: https://github.com/python/bugs.python.org Alternatively, they can also be good places to host the source code
