Module fails to detect branches for the branch filter

[fgm]

In the case of the MongoDB module, it does display issues in the 8.x-2.x branch but does not expose that branch in the Project Branches selector.

If it's a new branch, the project needs to be refreshed. Unfortunately the only way to really do that is re-adding it, right now

[fgm]

OK, then how does one refresh the project ? I don't see anything in the UI. This branch is about 10 months old already.

I'll have to look into it. I'm not sure why. I'm out of country at the moment, so give me a week or so.

Hi,
Have we lost the Project Branch drop-down selector? I thought there used to be one, and the above comments imply we did have, but right now we only get 'category' and 'priority' selectors.
Or am I mis-remembering it?

Yes, this was a regression in the new version that I need to fix.

Any chance of getting the branch filter back - or maybe rather a version filter like on drupal.org. Just "Any 7.x" and "Any 8.x" would help a lot.

Or should we close this issue and merge it into #125? The issue title doesn't make much sense when branch filter is gone.

[mglaman]

The problem with "8.x" and "7.x" is that Drupal.org's API is through RestWS. There is no "contains" or partial mapping support. So we can only filter directly on branches, without some post-processing after fetching issues.

The big discussion happened here: https://www.drupal.org/project/restws/issues/2392183
