Hello all,

So, my team is using onelogin in a distributed form (through git) to
track feature (user-stories) and bugs. We track them by simple tags --
:BUG: / :FEATURE: + A tag that specifies the project -- i.e:

* TODO Fix the bug no #434 :PROJECT_NAME:BUG:

It works pretty well, we have a common gtd file with all these items,
and then just do a C-a m and search for PROJECT_NAME+BUG and there we
get all the outstanding bugs.

What I'd like to do is to allow developers to quickly input bugs, just
like a remember template, but that include tags by default, so only
the topic would be needed. Is it possible without too much elisp
hacking?

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo.

Duh, I should really try things out before asking :S

It just came to my mind that tags are, ermm, just strings, and I just did that:

     ("Bug" ?b "*** TODO %^{Description} :PROJECT_NAMEBUG:\nAdded:
%U", "~/org/gtd/gtd.org")

Simple and works like a charm!

Sorry about the stupid question. Hopefully this message archive can
teach someone else to try things out first before shooting emails.

For my own understanding, some questions/comments:

- is your bug number coming from elsewhere?

- do you have links to a BugZilla tracking system, or something similar?

- why not using =%^G= in your template for prompting for tags (with completion
  on tags in all agenda files), in case the project name could have to be
  specified more dynamically?

Best regards,
  Seb
