## Setting up Bugtraq | |
*SINCE 1.4.0* | |
[Bugtraq](https://github.com/mstrap/bugtraq) is a specification started by Syntevo & supported by Gitblit to establish a standard to define and parse commit messages for linkable text. | |
### Why do I care? | |
It's a portable way for your repository to have linkable issue, pull request, change-id, etc text fragments. SmartGit/Hg and Gitblit both use the reference implementation available in the aforementioned Github project so if you configure Bugtraq for one you automatically get linked text in the other. | |
### How do I define the configuration? | |
You add a *.gitbugtraq* file to the root of your repository on the default branch. | |
This file is formatted like a standard Git config file. Here are some quick examples: | |
[bugtraq "googlecode"] | |
url = http://code.google.com/p/yourproject/issues/detail?id=%BUGID% | |
logregex = "[Ii]ssues?:?(\\s*(,|and)?\\s*#?\\d+)+\n(\\d+)" | |
[bugtraq "gerrit"] | |
url = "https://git.eclipse.org/r/#q,%BUGID%,n,z" | |
logregex = "Change-Id:\\s*(I[A-Fa-f0-9]{40})" | |
[bugtraq "jira"] | |
url = https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/%BUGID% | |
logregex = (JRA-\\d+) | |
[bugtraq "github"] | |
url = "https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit/pull/%BUGID%" | |
loglinkregex = "(?:pull request|pull|pr)\\s*[-#]?[0-9]+" | |
logregex = "\\d+" | |
loglinktext = "pull request #%BUGID%" | |
