Custom fields (and paths, too) can now be read with owners.search and written with owners.edit. There's a description of a more complex edit (against paths) here, but the same general workflow applies to examining and updating custom fields:

I didn't tag it properly, but D14812 resolved this.

From a purely personal/selfish perspective, the support workload the funny buttons generate seems disproportionately high to how funny/interesting they actually are.

I have no plans to pursue this anytime soon, but one of the goals of ApplicationEditor is enabling universal bulk editors, and I expect to pursue that and generalize bulk editors before implementing new bulk editor features.

I think you could treat them equally by having the parent project members be those of all the subprojects in both cases. I think it would be a valid usecase to change members from one sprint to the next (retaining the information about old sprints members).

D12692 is nearly the correct patch for this (and will support mentions, file embeds, etc., although currently not Fixes http://example.com/T123, which is parsed somewhat separately -- but that is also fixable fairly easily), it just has some tricky regex/execution order stuff that hasn't quite been sorted out.

Thanks for the quick fix.

(Confusingly, the help suggests that --whitespace=warn is the default and that warn does not fix errors, but maybe that's a version thing or maybe there's more config.)

warning: 1 line applied after fixing whitespace errors.

Tentatively, projects get new fields:

After D14811, here are the new behaviors:

Maybe IndexEngine is a better name than FulltextEngine.

Upshot is that this seems very promising to me. I think the pathway forward here is something like:

Okay, here's a query script:

I created an ngrams table like this:

Try the dedicated table on the files dataset and see how happy MySQL is about that (if it's better but still not great, we might still do this in conjunction with bigrams/trigrams).

There is a small possibility that D14801 fixed this. That's highly speculative, but it is the kind of low-level bug which could theoretically cause intermittent, difficult-to-reproduce hangs of this nature.

They can now be sorted by custom fields, and after T4863 they'll be able to render in lists. It's possible that T9372 will impact this, too.

Reading Custom Fields is now supported in new *.search endpoints (paste.search, maniphest.search, owners.search).

The maniphest.search endpoint at HEAD now has full-power ordering controls.

I removed "Quick Create" entirely in T9905, so this is obsolete (at least, for now).

Editing tasks via the editor now also subscribes me to them (eg https://secure.phabricator.com/T3277#148797); I don't think that's intended?

Not sure if trolling...

The "Can Edit Task Status" thing is now covered in T10003. I'm going to spin the remaining errata out into a followup since most of this chatter is now obsolete.
