Walkthrough

The FormsEngine adds localized version comments for create-mode forms. It initializes comments with “Created content” and updates them to “Created {pageUrl}” when the file name changes. Manual edits remain unchanged.

Form version comments

Layer / File(s) Summary
Localized comment initialization and tracking
studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/lib/formUtils.tsx, studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/FormsEngine.tsx
Creation helpers produce localized comments and preserve manual edits. Create-mode forms initialize with localized default text and update the version comment when the file-name atom changes. Other modes retain generated comment behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7cdec

Clearing a file name can leave a stale version comment in the generated atom, producing incorrect metadata for users and downstream consumers; this bounded correctness issue remains unresolved, so the PR needs a fix or explicit owner acceptance before merge.

@jvega190 This PR is close, but I would not merge it yet.

Merge blocker: In studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/FormsEngine.tsx, Line 764, if (pageUrl) prevents the reset logic from running when the user clears the file-name field. The nested pageUrl ? ... : 'Created content' condition is unreachable for an empty pageUrl.

As a result, if a user enters my-page and then clears it, the version comment remains Created my-page instead of resetting to Created content.

Remove the outer if (pageUrl) guard and always set the comment when XmlKeys.fileName changes. Add coverage for these cases:

  1. New form initializes with Created content.
  2. Entering a file name changes the comment to Created {pageUrl}.
  3. Clearing the file name resets the comment to Created content.

@jvega190 I would not merge this PR yet.

The empty file-name reset is fixed. pageUrl === '' now correctly sets the comment to Created content.

One issue remains in studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/FormsEngine.tsx, Lines 761-770. The subscription ignores the field ID emitted by fieldUpdates$. It checks changedFieldIds.has(XmlKeys.fileName) instead.

After a user sets a file name, changedFieldIds retains XmlKeys.fileName. If the user then edits the version comment and changes any other form field, the code overwrites the manual comment with Created {pageUrl}.

Use the emitted field ID in the subscription. Update the create-mode comment only when that ID equals XmlKeys.fileName.

Add coverage for:

  1. The initial Created content comment.
  2. File-name entry.
  3. File-name clearing.
  4. Editing another field after a manual version-comment change does not overwrite that comment.

@coderabbitai when creating new content, we only set the new content default message. No other comment is set other than that one. When not in create mode, the defaultChangesComment is the one that applies.

@jvega190 You are correct about the mode split.

In non-create mode, the code returns to generateDefaultChangesComment. The Created ... logic does not apply there.

My concern is limited to create mode. The version-comment field is still editable in SaveCard. After the user enters a file name, changedFieldIds contains XmlKeys.fileName. If the user then changes the version comment manually and edits another field, that field emits through fieldUpdates$. The create-mode branch runs again and replaces the manual comment with Created {pageUrl}.

The subscription should use the emitted field ID:

.subscribe((fieldId) => {
  // ...
  if (isCreateMode && fieldId === XmlKeys.fileName) {
    // update the default comment
  }
})

This preserves the create-mode default behavior and prevents unrelated field updates from replacing a manual comment.

@jvega190 You are correct about the mode split.

In non-create mode, generateDefaultChangesComment applies. The Created content and Created {pageUrl} comments apply only in create mode.

The remaining concern is limited to create mode. After the file name changes, changedFieldIds retains XmlKeys.fileName. If a user manually edits the version comment and then edits another field, the subscription can replace the manual comment with Created {pageUrl}.

The subscription should check the field ID emitted by fieldUpdates$. It should update the creation comment only when that field ID is XmlKeys.fileName.

@jvega190 This PR looks ready to merge.

The current implementation resolves both prior issues:

  • Clearing the file name restores Created content.
  • generateDefaultCreationComment preserves a manually edited version comment. It compares the current comment with lastCreationCommentRef.current before it writes a generated comment.

The create-mode and update-mode behavior remains separate. Create mode uses the creation comment. Update mode continues to use generateDefaultChangesComment.

I found no remaining merge blocker in the current diff.

The PR does not add automated coverage. I recommend a manual check for initial create mode, file-name entry, file-name clearing, and manual comment preservation after another field update.
