[research] Connection between SVN mailing list and JIRA.

Hi guys,
I am trying to link the changes that are made in SVN, that are
reported through SVN mailing list and the issues that are opened and
closed in JIRA. I couldn't see an ID or anything that seems to be
common among the two. Do you have any ideas how I can link the two
logically?

Also generally, do the people who commit changes to SVN go ahead and
update JIRA? or is it typically someone else who does the updating (I
am not asking about the ideal case of what should happen. I am asking
about what is typically happening today.)

Thanks.
Yeliz.

Hi Yeliz,

when we fix a JIRA, and if there are not too many commits associated,
we generally copy/past the commits into the JIRA :

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1029
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1027
...

It's something we try to do as much as possible.

Hi Chris,
Ah yes, I am aware of this one. Yeah, it's a bit other way around.
What I couldn't figure out was how to embed the related SVN commit
comment into a report that shows all issues (for example take the
report for "all" under the preset filters)
Is there a way for that?
Yeliz.

Hi Yeliz!
There is actually a plugin in Jira that scans SVN commit comments for valid
JIRA issues and then puts a nice link in the issue if there are any.  This
is backwards from what you are asking, but its close.  You can see all
recent Subversion commits for the entire Apache Directory project
here<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.ext.subversion:subversion-project-tab>.
Of course this is dependent on putting a valid Jira issue in the SVN commit
message, so it is hard to enforce the practice.  Personally, I am a habitual
commit commenter, so I have a personal edict of never commiting without a
valid JIRA issue to reference in the comment.

Hope this helps,
Chris
