do not mark issues that are being cross referenced #255

Open maxandersen opened 5 years ago

maxandersen commented 5 years ago

could it be added some flag to have stale-bot avoid closing issues that have cross-references ?

similar issues: https://github.com/probot/stale/issues/154 and https://github.com/probot/stale/issues/73 ?

libuv/libuv#2255 is an example of this.

Stalebot is crapping up issues that have progress elsewhere; it's getting incredibly annoying.

Please, please stop the bot commenting on issues that have active PRs, for example. This is not the first time I've had to battle with stalebot for this same reason. It doesn't help anyone.

So much damn noise.

maxandersen commented 4 years ago

@Qix- I agree it should be possible to at least as an option implement such check but in the short run just add a "pinned" label on it and you avoid the frustration :)

I'm not a maintainer of libuv so I cant do this.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

maxandersen commented 4 years ago

stalebot marking its own issue stale is funny :)

Yes, its still relevant.

Your own bot on your own issue tracker is proving the point of this issue...

I have come to loathe this bot and generally steer clear of projects that use it now because it's more of a reflection of the maintainers and less something "useful" or impactful.

Perhaps I'm just grumpy, but this thing generates an insane amount of noise across Github.

So it asks if there's anything to do here since the maintainers don't respond whilst simultaneously marking it as "won't fix"?
