Trac 0.8 Released
Edgewall Software presents, our latest release - Trac 0.8 ''Qualia''.
Trac 0.8 'Qualia' Release Notes
Trac is an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system, integrated with Subversion, for software development projects. Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software project management. Our mission is simple; to help developers write great software while staying out of the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a team's established development process and policies.
Trac allows wiki markup in issue descriptions and commit messages, creating links and useful structure between bugs, tasks, changesets, files and wiki pages. A timeline view presents all project events in chronological order, making tracking progress or getting an overview of a project easy.
