>Bonsai is a web-based tool for managing
<A

>CVS, the Concurrent Versioning System</A

. Using Bonsai, administrators can control open/closed status of trees,
query a fast relational database back-end for change, branch, and comment
information, and view changes made since the last time the tree was
closed. Bonsai
also integrates with

><P
>CVS integration is best accomplished, at this point, using the
Bugzilla Email Gateway.</P
><P
>Follow the instructions in this Guide for enabling Bugzilla e-mail
integration. Ensure that your check-in script sends an email to your
Bugzilla e-mail gateway with the subject of
<SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"[Bug XXXX]"</SPAN
>,
and you can have CVS check-in comments append to your Bugzilla bug. If
you want to have the bug be closed automatically, you'll have to modify
the <TT
CLASS="filename"
>contrib/bugzilla_email_append.pl</TT
> script.
</P
><P
>There is also a CVSZilla project, based upon somewhat dated
Bugzilla code, to integrate CVS and Bugzilla through CVS' ability to
email. Check it out at: <A

>Integration of Perforce with Bugzilla, once patches are applied, is
seamless. Perforce replication information will appear below the comments
of each bug. Be certain you have a matching set of patches for the
Bugzilla version you are installing. p4dti is designed to support
multiple defect trackers, and maintains its own documentation for it.
