rfe: multiple changeset ID numbers per workslice comment #90

Closed HamishB closed 11 years ago

HamishB commented 11 years ago

Hi,

this might already be possible, I haven't tried, but it would be nice if you could list multiple changeset ID numbers for each workslice comment.

when there's a bit of merging to be done often there is a move old data out of the way step, an upload easy stuff step, then a couple tag/feature merging steps. If the workslice consists of several clusters of features you might repeat this process a couple times.

So it would be nice if for a single workslice comment's changeset box you could give multiple changeset numbers. Perhaps parse to accept either space, comma, semicolon, pipe, or comma+space as the delimiting separator between numbers.

thanks, Hamish

while you're at it, could you make the name presented in the Comments section be the User ID name and not the full name?

keepin' it informal, Hamish

In the meantime, there's always the option of making multiple comments for multiple changesets.

HamishB commented 11 years ago

maybe it's fixed now, but another issue there was if you pasted in the changeset number with no verbal comment it complained of a missing mandatory field.

stephend commented 11 years ago

Yes, the comment is mandatory

HamishB commented 11 years ago

working around this by setting the comment to '-' when there's not much to say beyond noting the changeset number

stephend commented 11 years ago

The comments are (mostly) built-in functionality of Django, so unlikely to change.

HamishB commented 11 years ago

ok

HamishB commented 11 years ago

Hi,

thanks, multiple changeset works fine, although it might help to document somewhere that they should be whitespace separated, or parse away commas 's/, / /g'. (I first tried with comma+space and that failed)

also, as per comment 2 above,

while you're at it, could you make the name presented in the Comments section be the User ID name and not the full name?

thanks, Hamish B
