Originally created by @robinfehr on GitHub (Feb 24, 2017).

we're developing a bigger product right now which has multiple SDK's and with maintaining multiple SDK's there comes the problem that they all must have the same features / bug fixes etc for same versions. So after creating an issue we right now go copy paste it to all the other SDK's. It would come super handy if there was a feature for that which would allow us to create issues over multiple repos with labels and milestones (if they are available in that repo of course).

It seems it's a strange requirement.

@robinfehr You can use an external bug tracker like YouTrack, BugZilla, Mantis, ... or simply create another repository with the only purpose to handle all issue tickets and milestones (like Valve who have open a github repository only for the issue tickets system)

@0xbaadf00d
true that we could look for an external one which supports that - we don't actually like having more tools tough.

I guess the second suggestion wouldn't be an option since we want the issues linked in the commits unless cross referencing is possible (I don't know how). If cross referencing is possible we could help ourselves with putting check boxes for each SDK in the global issue.

what we also could do is using the gitea api and write us a little helper tool to create issues.

just found https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/748 - this would solve our problem too then. We'll wait +1

@lunny to make this more clear i'd like to show you what i had in mind as the process.

setup of 6 sdk's , one api => all sdks' are on version 0.1.0, api is on version 0.1.0 => several api changes planned, issues for the api created with the milestone 0.2.0 => api changes pushed (referenced to the 0.2.0 issues) => create milestone 0.2.0 for all sdk's => create issues for the changes in all sdk's => sdk maintainers can resolve then.

what we now can access a global overview over the milestone 0.2.0 - we'd to have such an overview because we want to release them all together with the api.

this way the sdk maintainers don't always have to poll and lookup the api changes and create issues for the changes themselves.

but like mentioned - #748 will help us too.

Strange, but we also have it, when adding MAINTAINERs :)
