1315571 - Add filter to TreeHerder for listing all pushes in a repo related to a given bug

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tree Management :: Treeherder, defect)

Description

[Xidorn Quan [:xidorn] UTC+10]

Some people may want to see the list of all pushes related to a given bug.

Currently, bzpost records every try push to the bug comment, which provides similiar functionality. But posting a comment for each try push isn't very useful for majority of bug readers, and creates lots of unnecessary bug mail traffic for some dull information. Also it doesn't work well if people disable posting the comment, or do not enable bzpost at all. Try push data expires after some time, which would make those comment completely useless.

If TreeHerder can provide a filter for bug, just like that for author, then it is no longer necessary to log them as bug comment, and all problems are resolved.

I think this is a feature better suited to hg.m.o's web UI (it's probably already possible using revset filtering). If someone also needs the results, the revision/push pages already link to Treeherder.

Perhaps a Bugzilla extension could be created similar to the OrangeFactor one, that added links to the bug metadata, that pointed at hg.m.o with the relevant revset filter applied?
