Issuable-like Rails models utilities
GitLab Rails codebase contains several models that hold common functionality and behave similarly to Issues. Other examples of "issuables" are Merge Requests and Epics.
This guide accumulates guidelines on working with such Rails models.

There are maximum length constraints for the most important text fields for issuables:
-
title
: 255 characters -
title_html
: 800 characters -
