Ruby API Bugtracker?

[thomthom]

Does anyone know of an easy to use bugtracker system? One that has free hosting perhaps?

I was thinking that it could be useful if there was a bugtracker system open to the public for people to report issues. That way SU plugin developers could search for existing issues, post work-arounds and it could be something we could point Googlers to.

we can use github issues - we can create a Sketchup Ruby project and put the problems in the issues, tutorials in the wiki and code in repository

Ok - lets try this out. I created a repository: https://github.com/thomthom/Google-SketchUp-Ruby-API/issues
I'll try to add some issues soon to get things started.

Maybe I'll try to port the WebDialog Lost Manual to the Wiki.

BugZilla (from mozilla.org) is free also, I think.

I know all the cool kids are using git, but bitbucket (for mercurial hosting) and Google Code (svn or mercurial) also have free hosting with issue tracking.

The similarities between the sites is greater then their differences. They are all borrowing the best ideas from each other.

I do prefer mercurial over git as a version control system mainly because hg is easier for me to remember how to use after not using it after awhile.

Yea, I use BitBucket - let you have unlimited private repositories.
But this ain't so much for the source code, as for documenting quirks and bugs etc.

we can use the issues api to make a list and integrate it on the forum as well
