- app4soft 4y agoI'm not sure when Git support was initially added to Trac, but TracGit 1.0 released in 2012.[0] [0] https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracGit https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracGit
- snorlaxle 4y agoYes, that's when it was included to Trac 1.0 as a built-in plugin. Before that, it was a 3rd party plugin you have to install yourself. I remember using it before 2010 and I'm pretty sure the plugin pre-dates github.
- Aeolun 4y agoTrac is without a doubt the most frustrating product I’ve ever had the misfortune of working with. I don’t even know why. Just seeing the interface rubs me entirely the wrong way.
- dragonsh 4y agoPersonal choice but indeed Trac is very nice and is still used by high profile projects like Django (especially supporting ticket triage) and Twisted Matrix. Indeed fossil-scm [1], has same interface as Trac (in my view partly inspired by it). Have used Trac for a long time, so can't complain, it works well, its simple and flexible.

- Macha 4y agoI mean, if we're counting Trac as the same, despite the drastically different UI and project-first rather than code-first focus, then we also need to count Sourceforge, which was open source in its first (2000) and third (2009) incarnations.
