• Re: Why are bug comment numbers multiples of 5?

    From Stefan Monnier@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 14 23:00:01 2025
    How come messages are numbered like Message #5, #10, #15, rather than
    Message #1, #2, #3, ...?

    You mean like https://bugs.debian.org/1095863 ?

    But not https://bugs.debian.org/1095866 which starts with 5 and
    has a lot of multiples of 3 in it.

    Hi,

    The easier way to figure this out would most likely be to just read the source code.

    Is it possible that when opening a bug, the first four messages are administrative in nature and not shown? The first followup then gets
    message number 5?
