Description Benjamin Muskalla CLA 2011-08-11 18:23:24 EDT
Any review that is blocked by a negative value in any category should be decorated as being blocked. This would help to get a quick overview which commits need to be adressed again.
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-08-12 06:05:43 EDT
That's an interesting suggestion. How would you propose to decorate the review?

Not quite happy with the red classes, and adding a small -1 on the task doesn't look that good. In my eyes, the "real" decoration with a little cross looks best

classes = glasses
Comment 4 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-08-12 08:47:10 EDT
The red cross looks nice. I think we should discuss generalizing this type of decoration. Other repositories may have "blocked" states as well that require users attention and there is a slight overlap with supporting staring of tasks.
Comment 5 Shawn Minto CLA 2011-08-18 13:13:24 EDT
I think that we should consider generalizing this as there are other repositores (i.e. Rally) that have a blocked/impeded state that would be good to represent this.
Comment 6 Sam Davis CLA 2014-12-19 19:01:37 EST
Not sure that this makes sense since a lot of the time you want to ignore reviews with test failures. Also, now that we have the dashboard view there is less need for this I think.

Mylyn has been restructured, and our issue tracking has moved to GitHub [1].
