DITrack is a free, open source, lightweight, distributed issue (bug, defect, ticket) tracking system using a Subversion repository instead of a backend database. DITrack is written in Perl and runs in UNIX environment (*BSD, Linux, MacOS X).

The project is inspired by the idea of Subissue issue tracking system. However, while Subissue aims in merely replacing the traditional database storage with Subversion repository, DITrack is a major rethought of the issue tracking system paradigm.

The main difference is that instead of sticking to the centralized model (one database, one web interface, one mail integration machinery), DITrack treats underlying Subversion storage as a versioned distributed file system which enables benefits of truly distributed operation mode.

What's New in This Release:
It is now possible to refer to environment variables in filter definitions.
Commit log messages now reflect actual changes to issues worked on.
For positive timezone offsets the corresponding string in issue headers was printed like '+-400'.
This has been fixed.
An unhandled SVN error on propget for a database root was fixed.
The format version property is now set by the database creation script.
