Comment on Evolving GitHub Issues

Comments

What about merging duplicates?

Out of curiosity, what would you expect any such UI to look like in that case? Merging the comments? Even right now one can comment "closing as it is a dupe of #666" and GH will cheerfully create bidirectional links, the link in the comment and the other issue will get a "mention" comment

I would expect it to create a tree of comments using the UI from discussions. The linear nature of comments on issues and PRs is cumbersome.

Evidently both you and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41709123 can continue to hold your breath on threaded comments
