tag log entries should reference tag id rather than name, so that change tags can be renamed
This will require:
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stalled | None | T89217 Should be possible to rename or merge change tags | |||
| Open | None | T253716 `tag` log entries should reference tag id rather than name |
When a tag is deleted, it is also completely from the database, including the definition the log entries would refer to. So these references will become invalid (unless there is some special treatment).
In that case, a potential solution that solves for both tags being deleted and backwards compatibility:
This would also mean that existing log entries don't need to be updated, though any existing log entries not migrated wouldn't be updated if tag names change
I'm moving to feature requests; this seems like it has a lot of aspects we'd need to deal with.
