Hello @MinCrohn, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

Summary of Changes

Hello team, gemini-code-assist here to provide a summary of this pull request. This PR, authored by MinCrohn, aims to simplify and make the bug report issue template more concise. The primary change involves updating the .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml file to streamline the information requested from users when they file a bug.

Highlights

  • Simplify Bug Report Template: The main goal is to make the bug reporting process less verbose by reducing the number of required fields.
  • Consolidate Fields: Multiple fields like 'Current Behavior', 'Expected Behavior', and 'Steps to Reproduce' have been replaced or consolidated into more focused fields like 'Describe the bug' and 'Reproduction'.

Changelog

  • .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml
    • Removed the 'current_behavior' textarea field (lines 11-18).
    • Removed the 'expected_behavior' textarea field (lines 20-27).
    • Removed the 'steps' textarea field (lines 29-36).
    • Removed the 'additional_context' textarea field (lines 48-53).
    • Added a new 'bug-description' textarea field with label 'Describe the bug' and a description (lines 11-18).
    • Added a new 'reproduction' textarea field with label 'Reproduction', a description, and a default value structure for steps (lines 20-31).
    • The 'environment' field remains required, now appearing on lines 33-40 instead of 38-46 due to the removal of previous fields.

Code Review

This pull request effectively simplifies the GitHub issue template for bug reports, making it more concise. The renaming of fields to bug-description and reproduction enhances clarity, and the new default structure for reproduction steps is a thoughtful addition. The removal of non-English comments also streamlines the template source.

While the simplification is largely successful, there are a few points to consider for further improvement, detailed in the comments, primarily around a minor syntax detail and the potential impact of removing certain fields on the comprehensiveness of bug reports.

Summary of Findings

  • YAML Syntax: A minor syntax issue (trailing comma) was found in the label attribute of the bug-description field. It's recommended to remove it for cleaner YAML.
  • Template Content: Missing 'Expected Behavior': The removal of the 'Expected Behavior' field might reduce the clarity and completeness of bug reports. This field is often crucial for understanding the user's perspective on the bug.
  • Template Content: Missing 'Additional Context': The removal of the optional 'Additional Context' field eliminates a useful space for users to provide supplementary information that doesn't fit into other predefined sections.

Merge Readiness

The pull request successfully simplifies the bug report template, which is a positive step. However, there are a few medium severity concerns: a minor syntax detail in the YAML and the removal of 'Expected Behavior' and 'Additional Context' fields, which could potentially impact the quality and comprehensiveness of the bug reports received.

I recommend addressing the syntax issue and carefully considering the feedback on the removed fields to ensure the template remains both simple and effective. As a reviewer, I am not authorized to approve this pull request. It should be further reviewed and approved by the appropriate maintainers before merging, especially after considering these points.
