You can set it to a non-negative integer +value from 0, 1, 2, and so on. (The database stores a 4-byte value, so the +upper bound is essentially limitless). +You can remove weight from an issue +as well. + +This value will appear on the right sidebar of an individual issue, as well as +in the issues page next to a distinctive balance scale icon. + +As an added bonus, you can see the total sum of all issues on the milestone page. + + |
