Issue labels

nickserv opened this issue · 6 comments

I've noticed that homesick's GitHub repo doesn't have any issue labels. Is this intentional, or should we add some of the default GitHub issue labels? If we want labels, I would be happy to start adding them.

The main question to ask is how much time will it take to label them all, and apply them to new things, versus the benefit of having them. In my experience, usually there's a burst of activity using labels initially, that eventually tails off and then gets stalled.

From my experience, while it is sometimes easy to forget to keep labels organized, the organization I get from them is worth the time and effort. Besides, I think GitHub's standard set of labels (feature, bug, wontfix, etc.) are fairly easy to understand and distinguish between. Do you want me to try labelling all the open issues with GitHub's default labels, or would you rather we never use labels?

Wouldn't hurt to start with the defaults, and iterate from there 👍

Alright, I started with the defaults and added a refactoring label because a lot of issues fell under enhancements. Is this good for now? If so, I'll close this issue.

👍 from me, I'm finding this useful already.

Yep, sounds good!
