OVERVIEW

       DITrack	is a free, open source, lightweight, distributed issue (bug, defect, ticket) tracking system using a Subversion repository instead
       of a backend database. It is written in Python 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.

       For more information about the DITrack project, visit http://www.ditrack.org.

       Documentation  for  DITrack  and  its  tools,  including  detailed  usage  explanations of the dt and dt-createdb programs, can be found at
       /usr/share/doc/ditrack/html/index.html.

       Run `dt help' to access the built-in tool documentation.

       Automatic upgrade is possible for databases created by DITrack 0.7. If you are upgrading from previous version of DITrack, use the  upgrage
       utility from DITrack 0.7 first.

       To upgrade a database run the dt-upgrade-0.7-db script, passing the database path as the argument, like:

       dt-upgrade-0.7-db /home/user/ditrack-database

       The  upgrade  procedure	merely	modifies the working copy (nothing gets committed to the repository). So, when done, you should commit the
       changes manually.
