OT: handling multiple software repositories

[Thomas Guettler]

Hi,

this is a bit off topic.

In our company we have several SVN repositories.

According to [1] Trac by default only handles one
repository.

Of course Trac links like changeset [1234] would not work anymore.
You would need [repro/1234] or something like this.

I think many (python) programmer have several repositories
and need to handle this somehow.

How do you do this?

I want a common wiki and a common bug tracker. It should
be possible to attach a bug to several repositories.

Up to now I don't use Trac, if someone has an alternative, please
tell me!

Have a look at DrProject[1], a Trac-alike which handles
multiple projects. (Not used it myself).

I've used DrProject a bit (my gf is one of the developers). If you like trac,
chances are that you will love DrProject.

It's quite good (and easy to install, unlike gforge), but the developers are
moving on to a version 2.0 that you can find around here:

http://basieproject.org/ (yeah, the website is ugly).

If you like trac, take a look at DrProject and keep an eye on Basie.

Is uses django. That's nice since I know it.

But the page looks like it is not ready for public. But it looks
promising.

Good hint, thanks! I'm in the same situation and have been installing Trac
right these days. However, where is DrProject?

Following the links pointing to TGZs fails and installing from svn doesn't
work poperly (error messages about PyDispatcher). So, how did/do you
install DrProject?

Kind regards

I didn't, I'm afraid (cf above). Hopefully someone who has, or even
one of the maintainers, can chip in.

We are happy users of DrProject 1.2 with SQLite and scgi. It works
very well for our purposes, not exactly software development, but just
for tracking our tasks and documentation, several projects, single
login, different roles for each users, clean urls.

The only trouble I have with it is that I understand that the last
official stable release is this 1.2 (or 1.2.1, according to the
Subversion tags), and then there is some confusing movements with a
2.0-dev, an 3.0-dev and this Django rewrite called Basie. We don't
know exactly which will be our migration path, but we hope we can
follow them.
