New custom fields add history record the next time every old ticket is edited. (Trac 0.12.3)

[eir...@gmail.com]

New custom fields add history record the next time every old ticket is edited.

Note: We use Trac 0.12.3 because that's the version our host (RepositoryHosting.com) uses. I realize that Trac 1.2.3 is the latest stable release. I can't fix our version without leaving RepositoryHosting.com.

I created a custom field in our RH Trac — a checkbox. Then whenever someone would edit a Trac ticket that existed before this custom field was created, the commit of that edit would result in a history record in that ticket saying (sorry, I don’t have one of these in front of me) that the _new_custom_field had been set to its default value.

Is there any way to create a custom field and not get this behavior? It's just noise to us. If this is fixed in a later version of Trac, well, I'd like to know that, too.

Thank you!

The behavior still exists. For example, adding:

[ticket-custom]

checkbox = checkbox

checkbox.value = 0

results in:

I've also considered this behavior to be displeasing ever since I started using Trac. I created a ticket for the issue:

Thank you. I'm surprised this behavior has existed as long as it has.
