Managing Software Development with Trac and Subversion

By: David J Murphy

Overview of this book

<p><br />Trac is a minimalistic open-source enhanced wiki and bug/issue tracking system for software development projects, designed to help developers while staying out of the way and provides an interface to Subversion. Subversion is an open-source version control system that addresses many of the perceived deficiencies of CVS and can use WebDAV for network communications, and the Apache web server to provide repository-side network service.<br /><br />This book presents a simple set of processes and practices that allow you to manage these projects using open-source software without getting in the way by imposing as little as possible on established development practices and policies.<br /><br />This book looks at what is needed to manage software development projects, how web-based software project management system Trac and open-source revision control system Subversion meet these needs, and how to install, configure, and use them.</p> <p><a href="http://www.packtpub.com/article/managing-software-development-with-trac-and-subversion-table-of-contents"><br /></a></p>
