Fossil VS Trac

Feedback to author: The diagram and explanation took a beat longer than normal to scan, since this buries a bit that it's not about the beautiful source control system called fossil shipped as a composition of modules: https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki Great diagrams, so of course that's the first thing a reader will skim. People biuld things based on git all the time, the diagram looks like... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

There are (all too rare) tools that back those objects with git as well. And there's always fossil ... https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki But it's not git. :-(. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

I don't think git should be the infrastructure of collaboration. It's good for long-lived artifacts, but isn't good for discussion, for rights management, ... Fossil (https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki) is of course better, but if git must remain, I believe the base infrastructure should be the mailing list. Patches, branches and releases can live inside a mailing list, it is naturally built for... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

> To make things more complicated, they also use their a relatively niche version management system instead of git. Which would complicate making contributions (if they accepted them). The Fossil VCS actually has a page explaining why it was created, instead of just using Git: https://sqlite.org/whynotgit.html Honestly, a lot of those points make sense, especially how Git is perhaps a little bit more complex and... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

For instance, when I enter Trac-2345, logseq knows that it must be replaced by a link to the ticket number 2345 in my Trac ticket system. Source: 11 months ago

Before there was Github, I used this software called Trac since it worked with subversion. It was so cool to be able to view source code and commits on the web. Then around 2007 or so I started using git and then in 2009 I created a Github account...so proud of Github and Rails. Thanks for the writeup! Source: about 1 year ago

If you want more functionality, such as a ticketing system and the ability to manage source code repos, look at Redmine (https://www.redmine.org/) which also has a wiki feature. Trac is older but also has a wiki (https://trac.edgewall.org/). Source: about 1 year ago

Try Trac, I've used it before without issues. Source: over 1 year ago

AFAIK Redmine is a project management software that mostly used in software development. If it is what you looking for, then check also track. Source: over 1 year ago
