Hi, at http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/5154 we discussed a wiki syntax extension which makes it easier for everyone to create automatic links to revisions. Currently, you can only write "r123" to link to revision 123. The problem with this is that many bug reporters and even developers using Trac don't know this syntax and don't care to learn (I tried to send emails to our mailing list, but our devs still sometimes use a different format). IMHO, Trac should not make the user learn, but instead Trac should try its best to understand the user. That's why I suggested to allow for these link forms: * r123 * rev123 * rev 123 * revision123 * revision 123 * Rev123 * Rev 123 * Revision123 * Revision 123
A wiki plugin was created to allow for this, but I think this really needs to be in Trac's core. Of course, there might be *a few* false positives, but 1. most of the time they don't harm 2. they can easily be escaped by adding a comma, for example, and this doesn't require learning any wiki syntax What do you think?
