finding fixed bugs? #281

Open tockschmock opened 1 year ago

tockschmock commented 1 year ago

I am not a Pro with Github. How do I find a particular bug, that has been fixed according to the Change Log?

For example It says: 7.1.1225.1160 - 2022.09.14 ... fix bugs: #263

but I cannot find #263 here ...

The link is in that page, it's on this text there "e32ca85". https://github.com/zimocode/smartup/commit/e32ca85d3a3e9f06d2f7789d2786d8e2dd0bdc10


Another example here is my issue that got fixed but on a different branch and waiting to be merged. https://github.com/zimocode/smartup/issues/272 Can you spot the change log link there? It is under the text "703d266".

Thank you for helping me.

But "as an ordinary guy, trying to report bugs and suggestions" I don't quite understand the procedure, to find out what a particular bug # actually refers to.

I found, that when I enter a number "#ABC" in a new post here it apparently creates a hyperlink to that bug, once I switch from "Write" to "Preview".

But I do not understand the relation between: bug 263 and "e32ca85" bug 272 and "703d266"

"different branch", "change log link there" & stuff

Don't worry ...

I will try to continue reporting things and trying to figure out, what new features have been added and what has been fixed from the Changelog.

The extension is extremely useful in my opinion, probably much underrated (only 90k users?) and has much potential (see my suggestions, observations), The options are so extensive, that it took me one year to understand 90% of it. Nice instructions (videos?, tutorial?), a better way to quickly look up the multiple gestures and drags defined and an instructive changelog (providing more details about added features and fixed bugs) would benefit the extension ...

Thanks

I'm not actually the creator of this extension, I just started using it few weeks ago.

But I do not understand the relation between: bug 263 and "e32ca85" bug 272 and "703d266"

The first number is the issue number, like for example this page is an issue page and its number is 281. The second part is the commit short id, commits are like versions of the source of this extension. So it would be like this, issue number 263 got fixed in commit (version) "e32ca85" .

I hope it makes sense to you, as I myself new to these things.

... makes perfect sense ;-) I will try to understand more of this amazing collaborative work / tools. I hope we will see plenty of "commits" here ;-))
