Re: Revision control + bug tracking

David has fallen into a seductive trap.

A bug is not fixed when code is checked in. A bug is fixed when a test case
or test cases demonstrating the bug run correctly.

You definitely *do not* want tracking of which bugs are fixed to be
automatic. When you merge a good branch with something else, bugs may
regress. The only way to know is to run tests.
