Make Intertrac Links work with 'root' objects

[ilias@…]

e.g.

• th: should link to track-hacks.org
• ​th:wiki (or ​th:wiki:) should link to track-hacks.org/wiki
• ​th:roadmap (or ​th:roadmap:) should link to track-hacks.org/roadmap

[Tim Hatch <trac@…>]

th: is not recognized as an intertrac link… if you put square brackets like [th:] then it will be, however it links to whatever the InterMapTxt says to, just interpolating an empty argument (it can't read your mind, right now the th prefix does a search). If you set up the prefixes differently [on your own Trac], this can behave as you've described.

if I point to base:roadmap on my instance, i don't get the roadmap overview, but instead this error:

verification:

​http://dev.lazaridis.com/base/intertrac/roadmap

Internal Error

"roadmap" is not a TracLinks

The expected behaviour is to see the roadmap overview:

​http://dev.lazaridis.com/base/roadmap

This looks basicly like a defect.

WTF? Stop deleting the ticket owners.

Replying to mgood:

'jonas' is not the responsible for processing this ticket. Intertrac links were implemented by cboos, if I remember right.

I'm still looking for a natural syntax for this.

Maybe a change of perspective is needed here, and project:<prefix> could do the trick.

See TracMultipleProjects/SingleEnvironment#Projectresource.

Superseded by #5968, which proposes to use the [<intertrac prefix>:] syntax, e.g.

• [trac:]
• [trac: The Trac for Trac]
