Description

As part of the new GitHub Pull Request syncing to Trac functionality, PR descriptions are added to Trac tickets. However, the content of the description that appears on Trac includes the commented out sections that are meant for information only, which makes things very noisy and hard to read.

As a workaround, let's edit the description to include only the minimum essential info for contributors to successfully create a PR.

This ticket was mentioned in PR #168 on WordPress/wordpress-develop by tellthemachines.

Removes most of the boilerplate from the PR description field, so that the synced Trac comment won't be too noisy.
(I have manually deleted the boilerplate from this PR, so see 38009 for a sample of what it looks like currently)

  • Focuses docs removed

  • Status changed from new to closed

Please open up tickets in Meta Trac for any issues that you find regarding Trac and the GitHub PR integration.

Core Trac is meant for tracking bugs in WordPress itself, not the systems around it.

Thanks!

@swissspidy the change, as per the PR I linked to above, is to the core codebase, not to meta. As such I believe this is the appropriate place to create a ticket.

Wouldn't it make more sense to strip these HTML comments before submitting the comments here? The comments are really valuable for new contributors who might not know about the whole process.

I agree that we don't need a workaround if HTML comments are stripped before posting to Trac. The related commit/ticket is [meta9531]/#meta5054.
