How are commit messages formatted?
I am moving from Trac and my own SVN server to Beanstalk, and all of the commit message formatting that I have been using is all lost, as far as I can tell.
Is there some sort of markup I can use in my commit messages to make them beautiful when browsing in beanstalk?

Ah, that makes sense, yes. We have been expanding the formatting of commit messages when it comes to integration with Basecamp, Campfire, and FogBugz. For instance, you can use the [review:file.html,file2.html] syntax to display certain files you want people to review. It will output something like:
Review:
http://acct.beanstalkapp.com/repo/fil...
http://acct.beanstalkapp.com/repo/fil...
These will link back to the actual files so others can review them.
I think textile support would be nice, especially when integration with Basecamp.
Thanks!

Inappropriate?Hi Jonathan,
Can you give me an example? Beanstalk supports certain tags in the commit messages to handle and manipulate integration with other services, beyond that, it is just plain text.

Inappropriate?Sure. In Trac, I could format my commit messages using their wiki-markup syntax, which let me put in things like bulleted lists, links, etc. It would be ideal if you'd support a subset of that syntax, but supporting "textile" or "markdown" syntax in commit messages would be fine by me.
Do you need an example, or does this make sense? -
