They work by indexing your commits as they happen, using a post-commit hook. FishEye is a commenrial product I've heard of that I think does what you want (though I've never used it), but I'm sure there are others, possibly even open source or at least free ones.

If found, you insert a comment into the ticket (hopefully your issue tracker has an API to do that) linking back to this revision (in a web-based Subversion revision viewer, which you'll probably also want a separate piece of software for, such as WebSVN, Trac, ViewVC, etc.).

trac can do this.
