When saving an issue we send the updated data only.

However the server expect at least one parameter to be provided,
otherwise it fails with an exception.

Check whether we have some update to send, otherwise skip
the update altogether.

Could you explain the logic here? Where does the 9 come from?

Thanks.

Whops, typo when creating the patch. It should be a 0.

Thanks for the update!

A more pythonic way to write this would be:

if not update_data:
    return

Could you update the code? Thanks again.

Thanks for the review, I didn't know en empty dictionary works with the "not".

python-gitlab/python-gitlab#389 means that
python-gitlab will raise an exception if save() is called with no
parameters. This sends a redundant parameter as a workaround.
