The implications of this behaviour results in unexpected loss of watchers...

Actions #2

Updated by Mischa The Evil about 14 years ago

Currently, a workaround to change the tracker without losing all the current watchers is to utilize the issue-move functionality.

Fixed in r4181. It may be too late for 1.0.2, so I target it for 1.1.0.

Cause of the bug : it's because changing tracker triggers build_new_issue_from_params method but without params[:issue]['watcher_user_ids'] (when an issue already exists, watchers are managed in the sidebar, not in the main form). It's just a temporary patch, it's not really clean that updating an existing issue triggers new/create actions. So it may need more work later...

It shouldn't wait for 1.1.0, Eric: could you look into adding it to 1.0.2, and if you don't stage it for 1.0.3?

Felix:

Agreed, it should be fine for 1.0.2 as long as it merges successfully.
