Thomas Götschi edited this page Feb 1, 2018 · 6 revisions

a little bit of guidance on the use of GitHub issues

  • issues can be anything from general discussions to very specific tasks, questions, problems
  • try not to mix unrelated stuff, avoid laundry lists. - instead, start new issues, and link them
  • you can refer to other issues using #issuenumber as a link
  • you can tag collaboraters with @username
  • you can use various markdown format features. Checklists in particular can be helpful
  • you can assign issues and label them. Make generous use of labels!
