Description

Hello, just wanted to share an enhancement thought on duplicate Trac tickets.

In many cases when a ticket is closed as duplicate the concerned parties often miss further updates on the parent ticket. Was thinking it would be helpful if when a commit is made to the parent ticket any duplicate tickets would get an update with that commit message so those ticket creators get notified their issues has been resolved with a commit.

Thoughts?

  • Resolution set to maybelater
  • Status changed from new to closed

While I don't hate this idea, unfortunately it's not super easy to implement due to how Trac works.

Unfortunately I'm going to close this as a maybelater as theres a very minimal benefit here, and a more likely chance of simply notifying even more people who don't necessarily want to receive updates.

Fair enough, thanks @dd32.
