Store sort data using namespaced sort tags #53

Open mythmon opened 9 years ago

mythmon commented 9 years ago

Currently bug sorting is done with tags like edwin-after-1234567. This doesn't allow separate sorts for different teams, which may be required if multiple teams are using Edwin.

Why not just deal with it and not allow different sorts between teams? That might work, but the way that sorting is implemented right now, each team would sort of stomp on all the data. Fixing that would be harder than just namespacing the tags.

If we switched this to namespaced tags, then we probably lose all the existing sorting data.

So if we're going to fix this, we should do it asap.

I planned on migrating the tags based on all the edwin tags available. For example, edwin-sumo and edwin-after-1234' would result inedwin-sumoandedwin-sumo-after-1234`. If any bugs have multiple team's edwin tags, those would have to be manually fixed (though I don't think that exists anywhere).

This would be an offline script, not something built into the edwin web interface.
