title: Best practice for integrating Mantis and Subversion
body: <p>I would like to integrate Subversion into Mantis, so when I make a subversion commit, the appropriate Mantis issue is updated. With Mantis' Source Integration Plugin, this becomes a cinch to pull off with WebSVN. However, none of the documentation I've read clearly explains a) what exactly is the link between websvn and Mantis Integration or b) what security implications there are for configurations other than simple repositories with no access controls.</p>
  
  <p>The most pertinent webpages I've read are:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://www.unitz.com/u-notez/2009/10/subversion-svn-integration-mantisbt/" rel="noreferrer">http://www.unitz.com/u-notez/2009/10/subversion-svn-integration-mantisbt/</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://blog.crazytje.be/mantis-svn-integration-in-the-1-2-x/" rel="noreferrer">http://blog.crazytje.be/mantis-svn-integration-in-the-1-2-x/</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://noswap.com/blog/integrating-git-svn-with-mantisbt" rel="noreferrer">http://noswap.com/blog/integrating-git-svn-with-mantisbt</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>In short, I'm reticent to give Mantis the keys to Subversion without fully understanding the implications.</p>
