The sourceforge Allura system has some very nice capabilities for using
markdown in the various contexts.  I've been trying to use this
consistently and I'd like to encourage others to start doing this too.
 There just a couple of things you need to do:

1)  When updating a tracker item for a commit, rather than typing

Committed in revision 9642

use instead

Committed in [r9642]

The syntax in the square brackets will create a link in the tracker item
directly to the SVN commit data.  This can be very handy to have, as you
can see what was committed with a single click.

2)  Create a link back to the tracker item in the commit messages.  Similar
markdown works in the commit messages.  If you are committing a bug, use a
message like this:

[#1216] x2c not recognizing invalid leading or trailing tabs
The brackets around the bug number will create a link in the SVN viewer
directly back to the tracker item for the bug.  The #1216 automatically
links to a bug number.  For other trackers, you need to qualify the tracker
using

[feature-requests:#1216]

Where the qualifier is the name of the tracker with a hyphen replacing the
blank in the name.

I'd like to see us getting consistent in this usage, but at a minimum, use
the revision links when updating the tracker items.
