Trac Links

As you might have guessed, TracLinks are a very fundamental feature of Trac.

They allow hyperlinking between Trac entities (tickets, reports, changesets, Wiki pages, milestones and source files) from anywhere WikiFormatting is used.

TracLinks are generally of the form item:id (where id represents the number, name or path of the item) though some frequently used kinds of items also have short-hand, alternative, notations.

Some examples:

Tickets: #1 or ticket:1
Reports: {1} or report:1
Changesets: [1] or changeset:1
Wiki pages: CamelCase or wiki:CamelCase
Milestones: milestone:1.0
Files: source:trunk/COPYING

Display:

Tickets: #1 or ticket:1
Reports: {1} or report:1
Changesets: [1] or changeset:1
Wiki pages: CamelCase or wiki:CamelCase
Milestones: milestone:1.0
Files: source:trunk/COPYING

Note: The wiki:CamelCase form is rarely used, but it can be convenient to refer to pages whose names do not follow WikiPageNames rules, i.e., single words, non-alphabetic characters, etc.

Trac links using the full (non-shorthand) notation can also be given a custom link title like this:

NoLinkHere. [42] is not a link either.
