Setting up TortoiseSVN

If anyone on your team uses TortoiseSVN, a Subversion client for Windows, follow these steps to configure it to prompt for case numbers when you enter log messages.

  1. Check out your repository
  2. cd to the root directory of your checkout
  3. Run the following commands from the command line. Notice the dots which are important.

    svn propset -R bugtraq:label "BugzID:" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:url "http://    Your FogBugz URL/default.asp?%BUGID%" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:message "BugzID: %BUGID%" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:number "true" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:warnifnoissue "false" .
    svn commit -q -m "Added BugzID properties to the repository"
  4. If you would prefer to run these commands from a batch file, you need to escape the % signs by doubling them to prevent the batch file from replacing them with nothing.

    svn propset -R bugtraq:label "BugzID:" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:url "http://    Your FogBugz URL/default.asp?%%BUGID%%" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:message "BugzID: %%BUGID%%" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:number "true" .
    svn propset -R bugtraq:warnifnoissue "false" .
    svn commit -q -m "Added BugzID properties to the repository"
