Olemis,

Do you mean post-commit hooks other than anything required to keep trac informed of repository changes?

I am wary of using commit messages to automate ticket changes, be that comments or status changes. I think this needs some thinking through to see if it is the best solution to automatic association of commits with tickets. It should be noted that we should expect to already have a view of commits against a ticket listed in the activity area.

I am considering other options but I think what we do will have to make sense in the context of the redesigned ticket view (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/bloodhound/trunk/doc/html-templates/ticket.html)

Cheers,
    Gary

I second that Gary . This is a killer feature ...

If you decide to enhace the plugin and if I can do something about it
... you can count on me . Nonetheless preliminary enlightening from
svn experts would be very appreciated .
;)

Another subject is how to make svn hooks work from remote . I mean
once changeset with message "We did what we did . Close #1234" is
committed then trigger hook @ Apache svn server to close ticket #1234
with context&  description . Once upon a time I should have started
something like this when trying to implement something similar to
Bitbucket , Google Code , Github ... web hooks (they have different
falvours in each case ... but essentially the same ;) . There's a
relatively recent discussion about this subject @ trac-users ML .

Anyways ... +1 for moving forward with this
;)

Hi,

I think that this is a high priority issue from the point of view of
working with the https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound site.

Perhaps someone with superior subversion knowledge to me would like to
consider whether a local copy of the repository is actually feasible or
if there are any other obvious solutions. Otherwise, it looks like we
will need to look at getting a plugin working to do the job.

Any advice on any aspect of this ticket would be extremely useful.

Cheers,
      Gary

   Trac effectively only supports a subversion repositories that are on
the
   same server as the trac instance. More information about why this is
and
   ways to get around this are discussed in
   http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/493

   While using the svnsync solution may suit some systems, I am not sure
if
   this would be feasible for https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound as I
   believe it would take a significant amount of time to perform the
initial
   sync (unless anyone knows better of course.)

   It appears that the alternative plugin approach
   http://www.meadowy.org/~gotoh/hg/remote-svn-plugin/ has not seen any
   updates in a while and I don't think it will work with the various trac
   api changes over the years.

   I suspect that this feature would be useful to others and so if it can
be
   solved, it is also likely to become a part of the Apache Bloodhound
   distribution.
