Can you reuse GitHub issue numbers, or what could be their intention here?
- TheCleric 3y agoYou can edit the issue to be whatever you want later. But I’ve never seen anyone pre-reserve issue numbers like this.
- zadjii 3y agoWe've actually done that for a few years on the Terminal repo. It's great for things like megathreads / scenarios / epics. For example, I can tell you off the top of my head that microsoft/terminal#8888 is for "quake mode", and #4000 is the extensions thread. We even used to have a bot that would auto-camp anything that was a multiple of 1000 or 1111 :D
- seabass-labrax 3y agoThat's a rather fun hack for issue numbers. Of course, a more robust strategy would be to have a specialised short-link generator for special issues!
- SushiHippie 3y agoAs they work at Microsoft, they all have aka.ms and can generate any short link they like. But it won't work if another user talks about issue 1234, and you only have the short links in your head.
- djbusby 3y ago> nice round number issues But the number is 11? Is this Spinal Tap?
- NikkiA 3y ago'All 1s' has history at MS...
- madeofpalk 3y agoWe’re about to hit issue/pr 100,000, and I really want to land a neat PR on that number :)
