dylanc 2010-02-20 21:36 reporter ~0024453	Slightly related but I added a feature to our local version of mantis to copy all parent relationships from the cloned issue. This makes it easier to duplicate an issue at the "same level" in the hierarchy. You can of course select "none" on the parents to not hook up those parent relationships. (it doesn't copy the parent relationships automatically but lists them up for you "pre-linked" on the report issue form so you can adjust them or remove them before submitting) If anyone is interested in adding this to the trunk I will attach the simple patch. I also added the display of the bug's summary alongside each relationship in the report issue form to make it easier to understand.

am-gtz 2010-03-08 05:25 reporter ~0024669	@dylanc: Interessting, but I think here we do not need cloning of the parent's relationship. Feel free to post your patch --- maybe it can combined with ours as long as it is possible to switch this functionality off.
