@title Diffusion User Guide: Autoclose | |||||
@group userguide | |||||
Explains when Diffusion will close tasks and revisions upon discovery of related | |||||
commits. | |||||
Overview | |||||
======== | |||||
Diffusion can close tasks and revisions when related commits appear in a | |||||
repository. For example, if you make a commit with `Fixes T123` in the commit | |||||
message, Diffusion will close the task `T123`. | |||||
This document explains how autoclose works, how to configure it, and how to | |||||
troubleshoot it. | |||||
Troubleshooting Autoclose | |||||
========================= | |||||
You can check if a branch is currently configured to autoclose on the main | |||||
repository view, or in the branches list view. Hover over the {icon check} or | |||||
{icon times} icon and you should see one of these messages: | |||||
- {icon check} **Autoclose Enabled** Autoclose is active for this branch. | |||||
- {icon times} **Repository Importing** This repository is still importing. | |||||
Autoclose does not activate until a repository finishes importing for the | |||||
first time. This prevents situations where you import a repository and | |||||
accidentally close hundreds of related objects during import. Autoclose | |||||
will activate for new commits after the initial import completes. | |||||
- {icon times} **Repository Autoclose Disabled** Autoclose is disabled for | |||||
this entire repository. You can enable it in **Edit Repository**. | |||||
- {icon times} **Branch Untracked** This branch is not tracked. Because it | |||||
is not tracked, commits on it won't be seen and won't be discovered. | |||||
- {icon times} **Branch Autoclose Disabled** Autoclose is not enabled for | |||||
this branch. You can adjust which branches autoclose in **Edit Repository**. | |||||
This option is only available in Git. | |||||
If a branch is in good shape, you can check a specific commit by viewing it | |||||
in the web UI and clicking **Edit Commit**. There should be an **Autoclose?** | |||||
field visible in the form, with possible values listed below. | |||||
Note that this field records the state of the world at the time the commit was | |||||
processed, and does not necessarily reflect the current state of the world. | |||||
For example, if a commit did not trigger autoclose because it was processed | |||||
during initial import, the field will still show **No, Repository Importing** | |||||
even after import completes. This means that the commit did not trigger | |||||
autoclose because the repository was importing at the time it was processed, | |||||
not necessarily that the repository is still importing. | |||||
- **Yes** At the time the commit was imported, autoclose triggered and | |||||
Phabricator attempted to close related objects. | |||||
- **No, Repository Importing** At the time the commit was processed, the | |||||
repository was still importing. Autoclose does not activate until a | |||||
repository fully imports for the first time. | |||||
- **No, Autoclose Disabled** At the time the commit was processed, the | |||||
repository had autoclose disabled. | |||||
- **No, Not On Autoclose Branch** At the time the commit was processed, | |||||
no containing branch was configured to autoclose. | |||||
- //Field Not Present// This commit was processed before we implemented | |||||
this diagnostic feature, and no information is available. |
