Thread and GitHub references

Link a thread

Type #12 for thread 12 in the current project, or owner/project#12 for a thread in another project. Add a label if it helps: [Release discussion](#12).

#12 always means a thread here, never GitHub. Readers can open only threads they have access to.

Link GitHub work

Write g:owner/repo#123 for an issue or pull request. Once the thread has a default repository, g#123 is enough. To include a title and state, write [Fix checkout | open](g:owner/repo#123); the states are open, closed and merged.

The first full GitHub reference in a thread sets its default repository if it has none. The thread's opener or a project admin can change it under References in the thread sidebar: choose Set or Change, pick a repository or type owner/repo, then save. Leave it blank to clear it. Each thread has its own default.

Make the link useful

Use a title as the label, and put @ or & mentions outside the link. A state you write describes the work when you posted it; it doesn't update itself.
