I think this has already been fixed on master.  The stacktrace from the console would
be helpful, though.

Huh.  Looks like I noticed the break, but forgot to fix it.  At the moment you are out
of luck unless you want to live dangerously and build from master - once I commit the
fix.  :(

And honestly, the future availability of ticgit integration is not promising.

• Status changed: Accepted
• Labels added: Milestone-1.2.0

[gitblit]

I think I will keep using GitBlit as it is. I was looking at the ticgit project and
it looks they have issues maintaining it. Also, it doesn't support milestones as of
now and that's usually a big requirement. I also saw a branch in your repo that has
some code for ticketing. I wonder how stable that is.

Reported by carlosomar2 on 2012-10-31 19:30:41

[gitblit]

That branch was integrated into master last Feb.  It has, IMO, a superior distributed
mechanism compared to ticgit for handling tickets and attachments - but it is inflexible
at the moment (can't define status, milestones, etc) and has no UI.

I'd like Gitblit to be a little more like Fossil but I just haven't gotten there yet.

Reported by James.Moger on 2012-10-31 19:39:41

[gitblit]

I was reviewing fossil since I didn't know it and it looks quite interesting. Too bad
is not that well known as Git. Having the repo, documentation and tickets is pretty
much what most of the devs -I believe- need. I like that idea. Great work with GitBlit

Reported by carlosomar2 on 2012-10-31 21:17:09

[gitblit]

Fossil is pretty cool.  But very much not mainstream.  Another interesting one is Veracity.

I fixed your ticgit bug on master, FWIW.

• Status changed: Queued

[gitblit]

Would your new system be stored in the Git repo itself or would it be yet another system?
What I like about GitBlit so far is that its just GitBlit + Git, nothing else... that's
its strength as far as I'm concerned.

Reported by martijn.niji on 2012-11-13 15:06:38

[gitblit]

It is based on an orphan branch design like TicGit, Ditz, etc.  So yes, it is just Git.
 :)  Of course there are many challenges once you go that route, but nothing that is
insurmountable.

Glad to hear it.

By the way: I *LOVE* GitBlit. :) Its my kinda application (K.I.S.S.)
