Notification settings - jenkinsci/jenkins Jira to GitHub migration

[Tim Jacomb]

Hi all,

In advance of the Jira migration to GitHub for Jenkins core issues on Monday 24/11.

If you subscribe to all activity on the jenkinsci/jenkins repository it may be worth changing that to custom Pull requests, Releases, Security alerts.

Either way there should be no GitHub notifications triggered as the import API shouldn't trigger notifications and the actions taken in post processing the issues shouldn't either. 

This will stop you getting notifications afterwards anyway if you don't want to be notified about all issues.

------

For the Jira part we plan to send one email to everyone who has commented or created an issue that has been migrated, if we can get watchers we'll do that too. Notification updates will be disabled so that people don't get 100s of emails.

Cheers

Tim
