    We ran into a bug where sometimes updating a file attachment would create a
    brand new one instead of replacing the original one. This happens because we
    rely on an HTML attribute to set the file attachment history ID used for
    uploading the attachment, which would sometimes be undefined. The
    attribute would be undefined when clicking directly on the file upload icon,
    which would cause the event target of the click to be the icon element instead
    of the <a> element which holds the attachment history ID attribute. To fix
    this, we grab the attachment history ID from the model instead. An alternative
    solution would be to use $(e.currentTarget) instead of $(e.target) to grab
    the event target, which will always refer to the element that the event
    handler is attached to instead of the actual element that was clicked.

    I audited the rest of the codebase for any similar problems and updated
    some areas where we caught the problem but used more expensive solutions.

    • Ran JS unit tests.
    • Tested updating file attachments, uploading new ones, and deleting.
    • Hit the case where updating a file attachment would create a new one, saw
      that the value from $(e.target).data('attachment-history-id') was
      undefined but the value from model.get('attachmentHistoryID') was correct.
    • Tested the expand and collapse buttons for the diffviewer and review
      request page.
