That would be easier and less error prone than describing > what to do in prose. Hmm. The webui already provides this (and other things you likely want to add) when you show the details for a tracked regression or visit its individual page: https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/mainline/ https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/regression/20220114105620.GK18506@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ I see that it would be convenient for developers and less error prone if I could mention the proper Link: tag in mails like the one you quoted, that's why I considered that already. But it would make the regression tracker's job (aka my "job", which I'm kinda doing in my spare time) yet again somewhat harder, as I see no easy solution to automate that when writing these mails (which I do with thunderbird, currently). That's why I decided to not do that for now, as that job is already hard enough and I don't want to get burned out by this a second time; and those link tags are something that were expected from developers even before I came with regzbot. But well, maybe over time I can up with some idea to make this easy for me, then I'll gladly provide that service. One easy way to make this happen would be: regzbot could send a confirmation mail when it adds a regression to the list of tracked issues and mention the Link: tag there. But that would be yet another mail in all out inboxes. But maybe such a mail would be good for other reasons, too. Ciao, Thorsten
