Description

How can I change the tracker of issue?

I 've patched to enable this feature.
It is required because most of issuers of issue do not have whole knowledge of project. Some reporter created issues with wrong tracker. Especially we have 7 trackers for my environment.

I modified this a little bit though. Made the Tracker Input the first field in the "(more)" extra-section when updating Issues.

I am in favor of adding this feature. Deleting an issue and resubmitting it under the correct tracker isn't much fun.

As a question, I know that you can change the tracker via the "Move" command, though the user has to have the "Move Issues" permission checked; this permission is not given to the default "Developer" user profile. It does make more sense to me to consider the option to change the tracker as an "update," and use "move" to change the issue's project. Of course, when moving the issue to a new project, we may want to change the tracker as well, so that option should be left there. But from a use case standpoint, I don't see why changing the tracker for an issue within the same project is considered a "move" rather than an "update." Could one of the developers enlighten me on this? Is there any reason not to allow an update to change the tracker?

As far as this ticket goes, I'm in favor of adding this; I'm just curious what the developers' reasoning was for placing the tracker change option only under "move," more out of curiosity than anything else.

Jean-Philippe,

I might be wrong here but I think you've made a typo in r3111, source:/trunk/app/views/issues/context_menu.rhtml@3111#L21 should be changed

from:

        <% unless @tracker.nil? %>
to:
        <% unless @trackers.nil? %>

Currently, with r3111 the tracker-option does not showup in the contextual menu ever since @tracker.nil? always returns true somehow.
