To List,
I went to the RT Training in San Francisco last year and I thought I
heardJesse mention that the 3.8.x version had “subversion” built-into
it, or at
least set up so it could be used.
The reason I ask is because I want to set up a Ticket Custom Field to
contain the ID of a program that needs to be modified and then initiate some
version control to “check out” when the ticket is opened and “check in” when
resolved. Did I hear wrong or is this possible?

I suspect Jesse was referring to this
but I honestly can’t make out enough of what you’re trying to
accomplish to provide commentary. You could certainly run the svn
commandline from within a scrip action if needed.

Kevin,
Thanks. I’ll look at that.
What I was thinking about doing was to have a Custom Field (let’s call it
“Program Id”) that would contain the name of an object in a version control
library and then have a URL for that CF that contains a shell that would
evaluate the transaction type and CF value. In that evaluation it would
either check out the object from the VC library (specified in the shell) and
put it in a workarea. If it was a resolve, it would check it back in. Of
course, this is just a preliminary idea. I have to flesh out the logistics,
but I think it would work.

That certainly sounds like something you could script, assuming it can
be done by the RT webuser, but it doesn’t have anything to do with the
RT-Integration-SVN module

Kevin,
Yea. I’m gonna look at that link you sent me first. It certainly might save
me a bunch of time.
Thanks.
