NAME

       ditz - simple, light-weight distributed issue tracker

SYNOPSIS

       ditz [ options ] command [ arguments ]

       To list all available commands, use ditz help.  To get help for a specific command, use ditz help command.

DESCRIPTION

       Ditz is a simple, light-weight distributed issue tracker designed to work with distributed version control systems like darcs and git. Ditz
       maintains an issue database directory on disk, with files written in a line-based and human- editable format. This directory is kept  under
       version	control  alongside project code. Changes in issue state is handled by version control like code change: included as part of a com-
       mit, merged with changes from other developers, conflict-resolved in the standard manner, etc.

       Ditz provides a simple, console-based interface for creating and updating the issue database files, and some  rudimentary  HTML	generation
       capabilities for producing world-readable status pages. It offers no central public method of bug submission.
