This tool allows an RT 3.x instance to integrate with a Subversion revision control system. To install the package in your RT instance, run the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make install To configure your subversion server to talk to an RT instance, you'll need to do a bit of setup. In your RT::SiteConfig, set up the following variables: Set($PathToSvn, '/usr/bin/svn'); # or wherever your svn(1) binary lives Set($SvnRepository, 'http://svn.example.org/repository/'); # or Set($SvnRepository, 'svn://svn.example.org/repository/'); You also need to add a "post-commit" hook to your svn repository so that it knows how to talk to RT. Basically, it does a simple HTTP "GET" request to tell RT to query the svn server for an update. We use this provoked poll method so that RT doesn't need to trust arbitrary incoming pings. RT is careful to only apply each commit once. Create a _privileged_ RT user for the svn integration to use. It doesn't matter if that user has no specific rights; they just need to be able to log into RT's web interface. Add the following line (assuming you use curl) to your repository's hooks/post-commit script: curl "http://rt.example.org/SVN/PullUpdate.html?user=guest&pass=guest&rev=$REV" & To tell RT which ticket a commit is associated with, put an RT-Ticket: line in your commit message. if there's no RT-Ticket: line, rt will ignore the commit message. If you put "rtname#" before the ticket id, RT instances whose rtnames don't match what you've put in will act as if they haven't seen a ticket id. This can be useful if you use svk to move subversion commits between repositories and want to track commit history across multiple RT instances. The other recognized commands are RT-Status and RT-Update. RT-Action is an alias for RT-Update, if preferred. Commands are case-insensitive and may occur in any order, at any point in the commit message. A couple simple examples: =====cut here====== RT-Ticket: fsck.com#123 RT-Ticket: elixus.org#1525 RT-Ticket: openfoundry.org#2113 RT-Status: resolved RT-Update: comment This is a simple comment. ======cut here======= OR ======cut here======= RT-Ticket: 123 RT-Status: open RT-Update: correspond We've commmited a fix to your problem. Is it fixed in -HEAD? ======cut here=======
