Yes, we need to somehow obsolete the original topic with the new topic. 
  This is easy to do if the topics are created "by hand", but via the 
SCM commit hook, we need to handle this in a different way.

I can see a couple of options here, which Jason has already eluded to:

* In the topic description, we could perhaps introduce another magical 
auto-link text, so that if you type in Topic 73514332, this would 
automatically hyperlink to that topic.  We actually do this with Bug 
XXXX text if a bug tracker has been enabled.

That way, the developer can add the Topic XXXXXXX text to their commit 
message, as a way of linking topics together.

They can actually do this today, just by adding a full hyperlink to the 
topic they are obsoleting, as Codestriker will render hyperlinks 
automatically.

* Another option would be to have a new field in the topic properties 
tab, something like "Superseeds Topics: XXXXXX", as a way of creating an 
obsolete link directly.  The onus would be on somebody to then update 
this field to maintain your links.

Does anyone else have any other ideas?

Cheers,
David
