JRA-3609 gets at yet another improvement I'd like to see in Jira, which is the ability to customize subject-line for each comment added to an issue.
EG I would have really liked to use the comment 'pathological GC behavior' for this post: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2075?focusedCommentId=12782069&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12782069 I posted the request to the Jira forums, here: http://forums.atlassian.com/thread.jspa?threadID=39074&tstart=0 But, hideously (thanks to Gmail's overly simplistic thread grouping), JRA-3609 is completely at odds with fixing Gmail to group the Jira mails correctly. Sigh. Mike On Wed, Nov 25, 2009 at 1:43 PM, Chris Hostetter <hossman_luc...@fucit.org> wrote: > > : I signed up for a login, and voted for this issue.
