Description

When using the "Reference this issue"-feature for an existing issue, it creates a new issue by quoting the previous one. At the bottom of the issue, there is a reference to the original author. However, in our case, it does not tag it correctly: it takes the display name (so in my case it would print @Jelle%20Hulter instead of @jellehulter using my username).

I was unable to reproduce it on the demo site, somehow it shows the username there for issues instead of the display name/full name which is attached to the account. Tried committing a commit which used the same email as the Gitea account but that didn't help either.

After this, I noticed that our Gitea configuration had the DEFAULT_SHOW_FULL_NAME setting set to true which caused this change. Apparently, the "Reference this issue"-window uses this setting to determine if it should use either the username or the full name, while this should be just the display name.

Maybe this has already been fixed in the meanwhile, I tried taking a look in the PR and issue history but I was unable to find a similar issue.

Here, the username would be expected instead of the full name (and hence still the percentage-sign encoding of a space)

After cloning and building it myself, I can confirm it is still the case in Gitea version 1.16.0+dev-252-gf96d0d3d5:

Fixed issue where creating a reference of an issue would create a tag…
b74a0f9 
… with the full name instead of the username if this is the default in the .ini file (#17074)

Adds an extra attribute to every issue comment containing the actual username, such that it can be used to tag the original author when clicking on "Reference in new issue" (#17073)

Fix #17073
