Description

Currently you can only add spent time on a issue via the sidebar.

Would be great if you can spend time via comment, e.g. like at GitLab

/spend 2h 10m

would eg add 2h 10 minutes to tracked time.

When somebody works e.g. on #2615 too I would suggest to also implement /estimate

You can do this via web hooks.. Listen to comments and if it contains your syntax, add the time.

Doesn’t make much sense to add this to Gitea. Will eventually lead to bloat

Maybe the time tracking could be implemented by Issue time estimate, meaningful time tracking #23113
