  • The {linebreak} markup to force a line break.

  • The {quote: TEXT} markup displays TEXT literally.

• Attachments can be put on Wiki pages now, in addition to tickets.
• The Setup screens have been rearranged to be easier to understand.
• An administrator can change the set of Ticket Types available. The default set of ticket types are:

  5. Action Items
• An administrator can change the allowed ticket states. The default set of ticket states are: New, Active, Review, Defer, Fixed, Tested, Closed.
• An administrator can create up to five new custom fields for tickets.
• Alternative "diff" programs can be specified. This allows an administrator to substitute a full-color "diff" program in place of the standard monochrome diff that is built in. (See ColoredDiffs)
• CVSTrac normally writes new users into the CVSROOT/passwd file of the CVS repository. But this feature can now be turned off.
• CVSTrac can now run as an independent server in addition to the older running modes of CGI and INETD.
