automatic ticket/changeset relationship

[matthew.monson@…]

I would love it if, when viewing a ticket, that the changesets related to the ticket appear as links under the change history of the ticket.

I know how to do this link manually but it would be really cool if Trac could somehow present the changesets as part of the ticket history.

It would make it very easy for management to see the code changes related to an issue without having to search the subversion commit logs for #'s…?

There are basically two approaches for this:

1. use the contributed Subversion post-commit hook (see ​the FAQ)
2. use the TracCrossReferences features (see #508)

The ± are:

• with 1., you can also take action on the bug (close it, for instance). This will only work from the day you'll install the hook, the past relationships

won't be taken into account.

• with 2., you will only see relationships (cross-references), but OTOH, all the past relationships will be taken into account.

A big minus is that the xref branch is a bit outdated w.r.t. the trunk. I hope I'll be able to fix that in the next couple of weeks.

As you can see, the two approaches could even be combined, to take the "+" from both sides. The only disadvantage in combining the two would be to have a few extra references (i.e. the links to the changeset added to the ticket by the post-commit hook will show up as cross-references for the changeset).

I close this ticket as a duplicate of #508.
