I definitely do not know all the features bugzilla can do, but the basic parts I use I didn't need to search for in a manual, they were just there, on the screen. Like with the shortcuts in the interface of GitLab. I definitely know how to click on [reply] in bugzilla, but I do not know how to press 'r' (or any key to be considered a shortcut of this kind) on a tablet. I didn't try it and it probably doesn't matter. If you let me to make a side note, maybe it's similar to the reason why I never got to use Blender. It's a very powerful tool, but it requires to know so many shortcuts to be able to use it (I didn't try to use it for a long time, thus my information can be outdated). It can be great for professionals and people using it every day, but when it comes to newbies like me, then I'm completely lost. What I need are basic things. I can compare it with Rhino3D, I can do most of those basic things with a mouse, everything is in the interface, I do not need to know special shortcuts and when I open the software half year later I still can do it without refreshing my memory too much. I do not want to change subject, that's just an analogy I recalled and it is possibly highly inaccurate, thus forgive me if you consider it as such, please.

Hi, yes, that makes sense and I'm also not thinking to be "better than anybody else" (I do not know how to say it better), I'm only trying to keep close to my current workflow, which makes me efficient in certain way. It's understood it cannot be the same, those are different tools, but I expect some basic stuff to work. By the way, what were/are your main issues with Bugzilla? If it's about pull requests, then, well, I've been told on IRC that issues and pull requests are two different things and if you check what I'm questioning, then you'll see it is all about tracking issues, not proposed changes from contributors. Bugzilla is an issue tracker and from my point of view quite powerful in many ways. Definitely much more than issue tracker by GitLab. I really do not want markup, the less images for smileys and emoticons, those add exactly 0 Sh to the issue itself (just like "me too" comments in bugzilla). Bugzilla doesn't know anything about cvs/svn/git and it (I believe) never had too, it's a tool to maintain issues, not the code repository. That's GitLab and some other for, if you really want a web interface for it.
