Java reference implementation

[gitblit]

I have another proposal for you: share your Java reference implementation.

It seems silly for both of us to code up 2 implementations of the same thing for the same language. I'm assuming you have a class that takes a commit message and a StoredConfig instance and works it's magic.

That definitely makes sense. It requires some refactorings to get rid of SmartGit's infrastructure usage, though. I think you may expect my commit during the next week.

[gitblit]

Sweet. That'll be a help. BTW, if SmartGit fails to parse .gitbugtraq, the UI remains in a disabled state for almost everything.

[gitblit]

It also appears as though SmartGit will only process 1 bugtraq definition. I think it needs to support as many as are defined. For example, using JIRA and Gerrit together.

I actually want to define 3, for my Gitblit repository: issue (GoogleCode), pull request (GitHub), change-id (Gitblit/Gerrit). I know that Wikimedia - which runs Gerrit & Gitblit - would also want support for at least 2.

[mstrap]

That's true: currently SmartGit will stop processing bugtraq configurations for one message, once it has found a matching configuration. This simplification helps to avoid possibly overlapping links from different configurations. Anyway, I see that the main use case is to exactly support multiple links in one message, so I'll fix that in SmartGit.

[gitblit]

Super! I think that will make adopters happy.

[mstrap]

The reference implementation now also processes multiple configurations for one commit message.

Cool. I've cloned and I'll integrate later this week - might be over the weekend due to the Thanksgiving holiday.
