Review issue tracker empty state UI text
Description
The current issue tracker empty state is wordy. Propose new empty state UI text.
Implementation Guide
To edit this text, you'll need to edit these files and maybe others:
Code:
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/issues/list/constants.js#L48-52
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/views/shared/empty_states/_issues.html.haml#L39-41
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/views/shared/empty_states/_issues.html.haml#L65
Tests:
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/ee/spec/features/issues/user_sees_empty_state_spec.rb#L13-14
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/spec/features/issues/user_sees_empty_state_spec.rb#L26-27
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/spec/features/issues/user_sees_empty_state_spec.rb#L43-44
After you change the strings, you'll need to regenerate the gitlab.pot file used for localization:
- Install and run GDK.
- Run
bin/rake gettext:regenerate. - Stop GDK with
gdk stop.
