If you're going to write a script, I think it would be better to have it pass stdin as the svn commit message, get the revision number from the output, and then update the bug (à la Subzilla) with both the comment and the new revision.

That's a great idea. It seems the easiest. I'll do that instead. The issue, though, is that everyone is going to get the redundant info they can already get from the bug report.

Given that most of the people in this thread are asking for redundant information, I don't think that this is a problem. Also, in the spirit of making it easy for readers, <http://producingoss.com/html- chunk/communications.html#writing-content>, I think that redundant information helps readers in this case. It's not like we are going to be continuously updating bug titles and commit e-mails.

I know that I personally would like to have at least the bug title in the commit mail. That extra click and switch to the browser really disturbs the workflow, especially when you are reading multiple commits lists. Having the title makes it much easier to try and figure out if the commit requires additional scrutiny.
