[mapguide-internals] PSC: Trac/SVN Pre and Post Commit Hooks

[Traian Stanev]

I'm against it (surprise!). 

Just use plain language to explain what you are doing in the commit
message so that people know what the commit is about. I think this has a
better chance of being useful than someone checking in a bunch of
commits that all say "ticket #7" in the commit message. And then you go
to the ticket and it has a one line description.

Subject: [mapguide-internals] PSC: Trac/SVN Pre and Post Commit Hooks

I am contemplating enabling the trac SVN pre/post commit hooks.

The post hook is a no brainier because it simply allows commit messages 
to include comments that auto-magically update tickets (e.g. the comment

"Fixes #22" would actually mark ticket #22 as fixed).

The pre hook is a bit more controversial, as it would require that all 
SVN commits have a ticket associated with them. Is that something we 
want to enforce?

Thanks,
Bob
