Description
In my Trac instance I don't see a lot of value to showing attachments in the comment history since:
- All the information is shown in duplicate in the attachment box below the ticket description.
- Only the admin can actually delete attachments.
I'd also like to avoid triggering an email when an attachment is added, which I think would be accomplished by this feature. If a user wants to make everyone else aware of an attachment they can add a follow-on comment.
The purpose of this ticket should the project maintainers choose to accept a patch is to add the following trac.ini entry:
[attachment] add_comment = false #add a comment when an attachment is added
Attachments (0)
Change History (3)

Replying to rblank:
Trac already doesn't trigger a notification e-mail when adding an attachment, even though it has been requested (#2259).
Ahh, it is the th:AnnouncerPlugin then that implements that behavior on my system.

It sounds like I should close this as invalid, and patch the th:AnnouncerPlugin instead.
