https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/ - sending emails

[Дилян Палаузов]

When a file is uploaded at https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/{id} with the option "Replace existing attachment of the same name" an email is sent. The email has a subject containing the ticket number and a summary of the ticket description.

If the ticket description was ever changed, then the subject is "Re: [Django] #ID: {current summary (was: {old summary})".

On such occasions the "(was: {old summary})" part shall not be sent as it only clutters the email.

[Simon Charette]

Whether or not the "(was: {old summary})" cluters or not the email is up for debate but in all cases this should be reported to the Trac project.

Do I have also to report to Trac, that whenever I use the function "Replace existing attachment of the same name" I get two emails:

• one stating that the attachment was removed, containing the aforementioned "(was: ...)" part in the subject
• one stating that an attachment was added, without the "(was: ...)" in the subject

while I want to get for this operation in total one email?

[Tim Graham]

Probably. The only part of this bug tracker that we have control over is in ​https://github.com/django/code.djangoproject.com/ and bug reports that affect that repository should be reported there rather than here.
