Description
I opened this to discuss options/ideas to allow "quiet" changes on tickets like #39383 or #48365/#52081.
Some solutions that come to my mind:
- having a separate field similar to descriptions that would not generate email traffic
- having a checkbox saying "don't send an email when I add these changes"
- being able to a reply with a checkbox "anyone can edit text of this reply" (people could then edit reply without generating more email traffic)
- open 100 new tickets and only display a ticket query in the master ticket (I don't like that idea too much though)
- open two tickets, one to notify developers, the other one without any subscribers to actually track the progress (ideally I would like to have the ability to include the whole description field from another ticket)
See also https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/QuietPlugin for a potentially useful plugin.
I think it could be good to take the discussion of your use case over to the trac-users MailingList. I have ideas on how to solve your issue, and would be happy to commit some time to implementing a plugin (if needed), for such a big and important open source project that uses Trac ;)
If you start a thread on trac-users with your ideas on how to solve it we can start discussing potential solutions.

TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
