searching: any assignee; excluding missing metadata

Open jrchamp opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

  • Add "any assignee" example
  • Document that "missing metadata" qualifiers cannot be combined with the exclusion/minus symbol

Why:

Had a team meeting and wanted to get all of the assigned issues on the screen at once. The documentation said it was impossible, but it is possible and I proved it. Initially, I tried to negate the no:assignee qualifier, but - contrary to the documentation - that did not work.

Closes: #31663 Closes: #31664

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

Tips, Assignee and Missing Metadata sections now better reflect reality.
