== DESCRIPTION:

Provides command line access to a Lighthouse ticketing system
for a git based software package.  Allows you to list, view and 
apply new patches that were submitted to Lighthouse.

== SYNOPSIS:

First, setup your Lighthouse data in your git repo:

git config lighthouse.account rails
git config lighthouse.projectId 8994
git config lighthouse.email name@email.com
git config lighthouse.password asdqwe

You can also setup an alias, if you prefer 'git lh' to 'git-lh':

git config --global alias.lh '!git-lh'

Then, you can list open tickets with patches 
(they must be 'open' and have the tag 'patch' - at some point I'll make this configurable):

$ git-lh list

Date  Num  Attch  Title
05/01  87  1  Dependencies shouldn't swallow errors from required files.
05/02  94  2  quote_string don't work with some postgres drivers
05/08  142  1  belongs_to association not updated when assigning to foreign key
05/14  191  0  Belongs to polymorphic association assignment with new records doesn't
05/14  192  1  AR Test failure on latest mysql 

You can show one of the tickets:

$ git-lh show 94

Title   : quote_string don't work with some postgres drivers
Number  : 94

URL     : http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/94
Created : Fri May 02 08:24:20 UTC 2008
State   : open
Tags    : activerecord patch

-- Attachments --

  1 : quote_string_fix.diff
  2 : postgres.so


You can get an attachment:

$ git-lh attachment 94 1 > quote_string_fix.diff

You can checkout an attachment - this will automatically stash whatever you're
working on, checkout a new branch called 'ticket94' and run either 'git am' or
'git apply', depending on what kind of patch file it is.

$ git-lh checkout 94 1

This will also checkout the commit closest to the date that the patch was uploaded,
which helps them apply cleanly.

== REQUIREMENTS:

* Ruby/Git >= 1.0.7

== INSTALL:

* sudo gem install schacon-git --source=http://gems.github.com
* sudo gem install schacon-git-lighthouse --source=http://gems.github.com

== TODO:

Eventually, I will try to add this functionality, too:

* add comments to a ticket, including '+1's
* create a new ticket
* upload a new version of a patch, a set of patches, or an extra patch
* apply several/all patches from a ticket
* make the tag for patches configurable
