Thank you, Enderson!

+1 for this feature, it's useful if the e-mail = login.

The patch seems to work correctly on the 0.9 branch.

If possible, could this be bumped into a "sooner" release?? (if not I assume the above patch will work against the current stable).

Thanks

Upvote.

#10 Updated by Bruno Bigras over 8 years ago

Here's an updated quilt version of the patch that I'm using with the Ubuntu package from the PPA.

I had to change "ChangeUserNameLimit" to "ChangeUserLoginLimit" to match the file name for the migration to works.

#11 Updated by James Birmingham over 8 years ago

This has taken a long time to be resolved, their is also #4991.
Can we be sure that when this does get added into a release that the database schema is also updated as the constraint is present there also, which the above patch seems to miss.

#12 Updated by James Birmingham over 8 years ago

Can we get the priority raised on this, as it is a blocking issue for users we legacy accounts to integrate with Redmine.
