Trac

Ruby
1

Thanks to the PragProgs, I’ve been using Subversion[1] for a while
now. Recently, I’ve started working with a couple of other
programmers, and I started looking for svn hosting. I experimented
with a couple of free services (OpenSVN [2] and Trac.cz [3]), and
finally decided to pay for a repository on DevGuard [4].

All of these servers include Trac [5] as a feature, but I must admit,
I’m pretty lost with it. The documentation on the Trac site seems to
be lacking a bit. I’ve tried a few google searches for tutorials, but
so far, I haven’t found anything very helpful.

If anybody has links to decent tutorials, I’d love one. I’m looking
for something that’s fairly intro-level.

If there aren’t any, and you’re experienced enough to write one, it
would make a great addition to the PragProg bookshelf, and if you’re
qualified, they just might be open to the idea. :wink:

Have you looked at the JumpBox trac/svn combo VM?

Might be an option if you want to host it yourself locally but don’t
want the hassle of setting things up.

I don’t know of any tutorials to recommend, but I’ve been poking around
with Trac for a while, so if you like you can ask me questions off-line
and I’ll see if I can help.

Quick update. I’m going to take James, and a couple others, up on
their offers to ask questions off-list.
