Learning Best Practices for GitHub Issue Labels and Creating Required Labels #5
Comments
I propose for priority,
It is hard to state size for sure, so I think we can instead use Estimation,
For type,
For status,
Other than these, we can add
Color coding is also important. |
I think the tags suggested by the Hakan will be enough. If there is no other recommendation, we can create them. |
Few small addition, Instead of estimation tag, I suggest adding difficulty and size. Since estimating duration of a task is also challenging and we should have a common way to do that. Indeed, difficulty and size tags could help us to estimate total time would taken by task. My suggestions to these tags:
I would like to hear other opinions about estimation or difficulty/size tags. After reaching a consensus, I'll create labels as discussed. |
It's a good idea to distinguish difficulty and size. More we separate the functionality of labels, better we describe the issues. |
As discussed offline, we agreed on size and difficulty labels. The time required for a task might be estimated using these labels as follows:
Of course, these are just suggestions, and we can adjust them as we go along. |
Just a friendly reminder for future reference to always include a description for labels and that color coding is also important for better organization. |
Aim : make easier to get information about the issue by searching a particular label attached to it
These are the label categories we decided to create:
Priority
Effort/Size
Type
Status
