Description Todd Warner 2012-03-26 21:29:08 UTC
In 1.0 (well, Beta6) I try to change the environment name. I get a validation error with no explanation (that's a bug unto itself), but then I find these bugs: bug 787226 and bug 795928.

Apparently one can't change the name of an environment because it is linked to its repoID. If this is the case, this is a design flaw. Names (or labels) need to be editable for nearly all objects that one can edit details about within the system. Separately, there needs to be a unique and immutable ID. One is for humans, the other is for uniqueness and machines.

Now, it would be sensible to warn an admin of a potential conflict (like if I wanted to call three environments "Dev". Warn, but not disallow.
