This changes the email "From" field from "gitlab@example.com" to either:
* "John Doe <gitlab@example.com>" if the author of the action is known,
* "GitLab <gitlab@example.com>" otherwise.
Rationale: this allow mails to appear as if they were sent by the
author. It appears in the mailbox more like a real discussion between
the sender and the receiver ("John sent: we should refactor this") and
less like a robot notifying about something.
This changes the email subjects for issues and merge request
notifications from:
Team / Project | Note for issue #1234
to:
Team / Project | Saving issue doesn't work sometimes (#1234)
Rationale:
* Scan the subject of the email notification more easily when catching
up with a lot of notifications. Instead of having to open the email to
get the title of the issue or merge request, one can simply read the
subject of the email.
* Group messages by subject: email clients will group emails in threads
if they have the same subject.
There was some funny syntax in merge request email templates. There was a ! before
the merge request number when there probably should be a #. This may be some carry over
from markdown but should not be in email templates. There were also some capitalization
discrepancies among the subject lines. For those OCD people out there I standardized the
capitalization. :)
