2025-03-17  •  Tags: ,  •  KUROTANI Akihiro

I introduce the new features that have been committed in the official Redmine repository and will be included in the upcoming release. Let's preview the upcoming features that will make Redmine even more useful.

This month, I'll highlight the issue about improvements in integration with Mercurial 5.1 and later committed in Feburary 2025.


What is Redmine?
Redmine is an open source project management software. It can be freely installed on self-hosted servers or used via cloud services. For more information about Redmine, visit official site.

Improvements to integrate with Mercurial 5.1 and later repositories

Redmine includes integration capabilities with version control systems. Supported version control systems include Git, Subversion, and Mercurial.

Mercurial is developed in Python. While it previously ran on Python version 2, recent versions have transitioned to Python 3.

Currently, Redmine supports Mercurial running on Python 2, which prevents integration with newer versions of Mercurial repositories.

The next version of Redmine will support Mercurial developed in Python 3. Specifically, Mercurial version 5.1 and later will be supported. Please note that Mercurial versions prior to 5.1 will no longer be supported.
