    2424||The `dir` attribute specifies the location of the repository in the filesystem. It corresponds to the value previously specified in the option `[trac] repository_dir`. The `alias` and `dir` attributes are mutually exclusive. ||
    2525||`hidden` ||When set to `true`, the repository is hidden from the repository index page in the source browser. Browsing the repository is still possible, and links referencing the repository remain valid. ||
    26 ||`name` ||The `name` attribute specifies the leading path element to the repository. ||
    27 ||`type` ||The `type` attribute sets the type of version control system used by the repository. Trac supports Subversion out-of-the-box, and plugins add support for many other systems. If `type` is not specified, it defaults to the value of the `[trac] repository_type` option. ||

    2827||`url` ||The `url` attribute specifies the root URL to be used for checking out from the repository. When specified, a "Repository URL" link is added to the context navigation links in the source browser, that can be copied into the tool used for creating the working copy. ||

    30 The `name` attribute and one of `alias` or `dir` are mandatory. All others are optional.

    3231After adding a repository, the cache for that repository must be re-synchronized once with the `trac-admin $ENV repository resync` command.
     
    4140The main advantage of specifying repositories in `trac.ini` is that they can be inherited from a global configuration (see the [wiki:TracIni#GlobalConfiguration global configuration] section of TracIni). One drawback is that, due to limitations in the `ConfigParser` class used to parse `trac.ini`, the repository name is always all-lowercase.

    43 The following example defines two Subversion repositories named `project` and `lib`, and a hidden alias to `project` as the default repository. This is a typical use case where a Trac environment previously had a single repository (the `project` repository), and was converted to multiple repositories. The alias ensures that links predating the change continue to resolve to the `project` repository.

    9091=== Explicit synchronization === #ExplicitSync
    91 This is the preferred method of repository synchronization. It requires setting the `[trac]  repository_sync_per_request` option in [wiki:TracIni#trac-section trac.ini] to an empty value, and adding a call to `trac-admin` in the post-commit hook of each repository. Additionally, if a repository allows changing revision metadata, a call to `trac-admin` must be added to the post-revprop-change hook as well.

    101 Note that you may have to set the environment variable PYTHON_EGG_CACHE to the same value as was used for the web server configuration before calling trac-admin, if you changed it from its default location. See [wiki:TracPlugins Trac Plugins] for more information.

     104==== Subversion ====
    102105
    103106The following examples are complete post-commit and post-revprop-change scripts for Subversion. They should be edited for the specific environment, marked executable (where applicable) and placed in the `hooks` directory of each repository. On Unix (`post-commit`):
     
    107110/usr/bin/trac-admin /path/to/env changeset added "$1" "$2"
    108111}}}
     112Note: Check with `whereis trac-admin`, whether `trac-admin` is really installed under `/usr/bin/` or maybe under `/usr/local/bin/` and adapt the path.
    109113On Windows (`post-commit.cmd`):
    110 {{{#!application/x-dos-batch
     114{{{#!bat
    111115@C:\Python26\Scripts\trac-admin.exe C:\path\to\env changeset added "%1" "%2"
    112116}}}
     
    119123}}}
    120124On Windows (`post-revprop-change.cmd`):
    121 {{{#!application/x-dos-batch
     125{{{#!bat
    122126@C:\Python26\Scripts\trac-admin.exe C:\path\to\env changeset modified "%1" "%2"
    123127}}}
     
    127131Note that calling `trac-admin` in your Subversion hooks can slow down the commit and log editing operations on the client side. You might want to use the [trac:source:trunk/contrib/trac-svn-hook contrib/trac-svn-hook] script which starts `trac-admin` in an asynchronous way. The script also comes with a number of safety checks and usage advices which should make it easier to set up and test your hooks. There's no equivalent `trac-svn-hook.bat` for Windows yet, but the script can be run by Cygwin's bash.

    129 See the [http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.reposadmin.create.html#svn.reposadmin.create.hooks section about hooks] in the Subversion book for more information. Other repository types will require different hook setups. Please see the plugin documentation for specific instructions.

     134
     135==== Git ====
     136
     137Git hooks can be used in the same way for explicit syncing of Git repositories.  If your git repository is one that gets committed to directly on the machine that hosts trac, add the following to the `hooks/post-receive` file in your git repo (note: this will do nothing if you only update the repo by pushing to it):
     138{{{#!sh
     139#!/bin/sh
     140REV=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
     141trac-admin /path/to/env changeset added <repos> $REV
     142}}}
     143
     144Alternately, if your repository is one that only gets pushed to, add the following to the `hooks/post-receive` file in the repo:
     145{{{#!sh
     146#!/bin/sh
     147while read oldrev newrev refname; do
     148        git rev-list --reverse $newrev ^$oldrev  | \
     149        while read rev; do
     150                trac-admin /path/to/env changeset added <repos> $rev
     151        done
     152done
     153}}}
     154
     155The `<repos>` argument can be either a repository name (use "`(default)`" for the default repository) or the path to the repository.
     156
     157==== Mercurial ====
     158
     159For Mercurial, add the following entries to the `.hgrc` file of each repository accessed by Trac (if [trac:TracMercurial] is installed in a Trac `plugins` directory, download [trac:source:mercurial-plugin/tracext/hg/hooks.py hooks.py] and place it somewhere accessible):
     160{{{#!ini
     161[hooks]
     162; If mercurial-plugin is installed globally
     163commit = python:tracext.hg.hooks.add_changesets
     164changegroup = python:tracext.hg.hooks.add_changesets
     165
     166; If mercurial-plugin is installed in a Trac plugins directory
     167commit = python:/path/to/hooks.py:add_changesets
     168changegroup = python:/path/to/hooks.py:add_changesets
     169
     170[trac]
     171env = /path/to/env
     172trac-admin = /path/to/trac-admin

    140184 1. Remove the default repository specification from the `[trac] repository_dir` option.
    141  1. Add the "main" repository as a named repository.
     185 1. Add the main repository as a named repository.
    142186 1. Re-synchronize the main repository.
    143  1. Set up post-commit and post-revprop-change hooks on the main repository, and set `[trac] repository_sync_per_request` to an empty value.
    144  1. Add a hidden alias to the main repository as the default repository. This ensures that all links predating the migration still resolve to the main repository.
    145  1. Repeat steps 2, 3 and 4 to add other (named) repositories as needed.
     187 1. Set up post-commit and post-revprop-change hooks on the "main" repository, and set `[trac] repository_sync_per_request` to an empty value.
     188 1. Add an alias to the main repository as the default repository (by leaving out the the `name`, e.g. `.alias = main`). This ensures that all links predating the migration still resolve to the main repository.
     189 1. Repeat steps 2, 3 and 4 to add other "named" repositories as needed.

    147191== Migration from a single-repository setup (Mercurial) == #MigrationMercurial
    148 The following procedure illustrates a typical migration from a Mercurial single-repository setup to multiple repositories. Please note that at the time of writing, no initial resynchronization or any hooks are necessary for Mercurial repositories - see #9485 for more information.
