Feature #13314

Show issue description change on the Activity view
Added by Anton Nepomnyaschih almost 12 years ago.

Description
If someone changes Description of an issue, this action isn't shown on Activity page of the project. I think, this should be, as description change is a very important thing.
Files
- Tracker changed from Defect to Feature
- Subject changed from Description change isn't shown on Activity page to Show issue description change on the Activity view
- Category set to Issues
Currently, issue related journals appear on the
activity view only when:
- a new issue has been created;
- the status of an issue has been changed / the given issue has been closed (because this only occurs due to a change of its status, but is rendered with a different icon to distinguish an issue closure from an ordinary status change);
- a note to the issue has been added (obviously this doesn't include "notes", auto-generated by Redmine, which only contains issue property change history).
So, since the issue description is an issue property not related to the issue status, changing it, does not trigger a new journal. That is at the moment imho the expected behavior. In that perspective I think this is more a feature request than that it is a defect.
If we show note's adding on activity page, then we must show description change on the page too. Because description change from my perspective even more important than note's adding.
I've created a patch against trunk. All tests are running fine.
When the description of an issue is changed an email notification is sent out to watchers and a note is added. Only the project's activity page does not record the change. Isn't that a defect?
