             Bug #: 35217
           Summary: Add facility to disable follow-up notification
                    e-mails.
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: CodeReview
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected]

Currently, whenever CR detects that a new revision refers to an old revision,
it marks it as a follow-up and sends an e-mail to everyone connected to the old
revision (committer, commenters, etc.).

However, we have a multi-repository setup, and the revision we are referring to
may actually be in a different repository.  This means that about 25% of the
time, the follow-up association will be wrong, resulting in a lot of e-mail
spam.

I have no problem with things being incorrectly associated - it is easy to
dissociate them - but I want to disable the e-mails which are currently just a
nuisance.

I'm happy to make the fix myself, but I wanted to post the issue here to see if
anyone had any thoughts about this before I implemented it.

I was going to do this via a new global configuration setting -
$wgCodeReviewDisableFollowUpNotification - which is checked prior to sending
the e-mails.  Sound sensible?
