Github labels

Any repositories related to add-ons can have any labels of any format that it wants. But here’s a core list of labels and colours that we’d like to have a bit of consistency. Some key labels:

  • blocks release

  • blocked by upstream

  • good first bug

  • maybe good first bug

  • not ready for merge

  • pull request ready

  • priority one

  • priority two

  • triaged

Colour wise:

  • red (#b60205), pay attention to these, eg: “priority one”

  • green (#0e8a16), projects that we might work on, eg: “Firefox Accounts” or “signing”

  • light blue (#c7def8), often left over from Bugzilla, usually and end statement eg: “invalid”, “won’t fix”, “enhancement”

  • purple (#5319e7), needs… eg: “needs ux”

  • yellow (#fbca04), intermediary state eg: “maybe good first bug” or “in progress”

  • blue (#0052cc), a project area at the technical level, eg: “code quality”

Other comments:

  • no need to add in - or _ between words, eg “pull-request-ready” vs “pull request ready”

  • you can be verbose, eg: “needs more qa” vs “qa+”
