784670 - Consider making TBPL's treestatus links point to specific trees

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tree Management Graveyard :: TBPL, defect)

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

Currently the treestatus link on the tree info menu points to https://treestatus.mozilla.org/ on every tree.

Whilst that overview is useful for infra closures, having it point to https://treestatus.mozilla.org/<tree_name>/ (so you can see the change log + you don't have to tick the checkbox next to the tree in question) might be preferable since the majority of closures are not infra related.

Suggested by mbrubeck, philor do you have a preference? (I'm kinda on the fence / maybe slightly closer to having it point to the individual tree).

For the first few days, I agreed, but since then I've only gone to the individual tree page when I needed to rescue a clobbered reason, which I seem to do less often than I close multiple trees (and "omg, that's totally busted, I need the CLOSE ALL THE THINGS, I should click this menu link, then scroll clear to the bottom to find the All trees link to get to the main page" balanced against "oof, I can barely muster the energy to push my pointer clear up to this checkbox, much less actually click on it" is pretty evenly balanced). Not sure.

TBPL is EOL, but this has been implemented in Treeherder :-)
