Project management systems software

Question

Well, that’s why I just recently started taking programming programming seriously, and I started using Mercurial to manage my projects. I chose Mercurial over SVN because of its ability to make repo changes without connecting to the Internet (these days I am in areas without Internet access). I am looking for a piece of software (preferably for free, because I am on a very limited budget: -P), which will allow me to manage the error database and TODO list for each of my projects without requiring an Internet connection. Is there anything that will allow me to do just that (maybe more)? I would prefer something that can work with Mercurial, because at this point it would be a pain to switch version control systems.

Answer 1

Okay, so a few days passed, and so far I have not found anything suitable for my needs. Fossil sounds great, but I skip the Windows shell extensions that TortoiseHg provides (I don't like working on command lines), dotProject is a hosting solution, and if I want to run it locally, I have to configure WAMP. The BugsEverywhere repository doesn't seem to work (I can't get anything from it using bzr), and Artemis is good, but it's easier for me to work with something that has a graphical interface. I found FogBugz and its step in the right direction for me, but it’s not free (I am using their 40-day online trial right now. Maybe I'm going to finish writing one in Python using Django, since I know that I do not have to reinvent the wheel, but in this case the available wheels just don't fit ...

Answer 2

Dot Project, best in my opinion.

Answer 3

http://bugseverywhere.org/be/show/HomePage : Bugs Everywhere is a "distributed bugtracker" designed to complement distributed version control systems. Support Arch, Bazaar, Darcs, GIT, Mercurial

Answer 4

You may be interested in DVCS called Fossil , which has a built-in error tracker and wiki. I have never used it, but it looks like it can satisfy your needs.

Answer 5

This adds a Mercurial extension that tries to provide this - ArtemisExtension .

Answer 6

ticgit , a distributed git-based ticketing system, including a command line client and web browser. It works with git. but if you really need distributed source and bug tracking and you like this app, the cost of switching vc might be acceptable.

CodeBeamer MR looks interesting: http://www.intland.com/products/cb-mr/overview.html and promises to be free "forever" ...
