Add underline for all anchors on hover and focus

Resources

From the discussion in #21287 (closed) it was decided to add an underline to every text link on hover and focus to make them more discoverable and accessible.

This is a list of all the places we've found the underline missing:

  • Project name in "Contributed projects" and "Personal projects" under user profile. Missing underline on hover and focus. Screenshot_2016-11-03_12.25.44

  • File name in the file tree. Missing underline on hover and focus. Screenshot_2016-11-03_12.31.17

  • Quick links under Project page. Missing underline on hover and focus. Screenshot_2016-11-03_12.26.01

  • Timestamps on comments and system notes under Issue and Merge Requests. Missing underline on hover. Screenshot_2016-11-03_12.33.06

  • Anchors in Issue and Merge Request sidebar. Missing underline on hover. Screenshot_2016-11-03_12.34.48

  • Links in the build header also need underlines:

  • sha on commit page:

  • tags on a commit:

  • Names in comments:

  • Website on profile

  • Labels

If anyone finds more examples of this, please add them to this issue.
