simplified wikification of svn log messages

[Sergei Haller <sergei@…>]

Is it possible to simplify the wikification of svn log messages? The problem I get is if we have some math content (like

x^5+x^4+x

which will show like x^5+x4+x. There are some other things as well, which we don't actually need in or project, as the log messages are and will always be plain text. The only thing I'd like to keep is the recognition of revision numbers in the log messages with the appropriate links.

Is it hard to achieve this? (Would be ok if it is in the source, i.e. not configurable by admin/user)

Thanks.

well, I found the place (template/changeset) and replaced

-              ${wiki_to_html(context, changeset.message, escape_newlines=True)}
+              <pre>${changeset.message}</pre>

is there any easy way to parse the message for revision numbers and convert them to links?

There's currently a TracIni#changeset-section option for that (wiki_format_messages).

Also, I'm in the process of refactoring the Wiki engine. I think it should be possible to create a "TracLinks only" formatter, so that only things like tickets and changesets links get formatted.

thanks, I must have overseen that option. Though it doesn't respect line breaks. This is easily fixed (see attached patch)

that'd be great, too.

thanks, applied in r4799.

somewhat related. fixes shorten_line call in revision log if wiki_format_messages is disabled.

[Christian Boos]

hm, btw, I didn't notice attachment:short-mes.patch​ but I did notice the columns full of shorten_line(message) → r4800 ;-)

[Christian Boos]

In #3203, there's the idea to specifically disable one kind of link resolver (the r… style changeset links).

#4944 was closed as duplicate (emphasis was put there on the need to respect whitespace).

WikiEngine refactoring and related fixes postponed.

Is the "TracLinks only" formatter already implemented? I am new to Trac and do not know how to interpret the message "milestone changed from 0.11 to 0.12" in this thread. The Trac instance I am a user of is still based on 0.10.3, but if I knew there was a feature like "TracLinks only", I might be able to convince the admin to upgrade to a newer version. The problem I had with the Wiki formatter is described in #6510.

[Christian Boos]

It simply means this feature is on the TODO list for 0.12.

adding to cc (this text is needed to not trigger the spam detection, unfortunately)

#3591 was closed as duplicate of this ticket.

Could be useful for the 'description' field in the csv export as well.
