Summary

Forgejo should handle refs in initial comment as it does for later comments

Details

If I file a PR that includes a Fixes ref in the initial comment, Forgejo does not seem to notice it. I have to make a separate comment to get the ref.

While it's easy enough to work around, I can see a lot of refs getting lost because the filer assumes the initial one is sufficient. I almost missed the one that prompted this, and now I suspect I have missed others similarly in the past.

In my example, a minor edit to the first comment did not fix anything (I made one at Jun 22, 2026, 12:40 PM EDT).

Nevermind, pretty sure I was just misreading. Sorry for the noise.
