Usethis: support multiple issue issue templates

Created on 9 May 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: r-lib/usethis

It might be nice to add several issue templates, from which people can than choose the type of issue (say, bug report or feature request).

Like so:

new-issue-page-with-multiple-templates

This could help people to self-filter their issues a bit, maybe even reducing the issue load.

FYI, current issue template is also now superseded by a new format, says github when inspecting the source for usethis::use_tidy_issue_template():

old-template

cc @batpigandme

Also, maybe this would be a nice tdd-issue? (can't tag it).

feature git

I think updating the current, sole issue template should be in a separate issue from the possibility of having multiple templates.

Yeah, and the multiple template issue isn't a great fit for TDD since we need to decide on which templates first.

I don't find these templates terribly useful, and we don't have a concrete proposal here, so I think it's time to close this issue.
