Redmine

No it's not a bug.
In fact, this attribute will be used as the unix group name for
the project. Lower case letters are prefered for this.
Maybe I could change its label...

I figured it out after examining the last round of commits.
I assume you're going to allow redMine to setup and manage
the SVN repositories. A few comments:

• Identifier can be easily confused with a project code
• It's marked as required even though a project may not have
  an SVN repository or even have it controlled by redMine
• Your manipulation scripts are written in Perl - you're
  adding an environment requirement by using Perl, you might
  want to consider writing those scripts in Ruby since you
  know your users will have that installed

• What name would you propose for this attribute (any idea is
  welcome) ?
• I prefer to mark it as required since it may be used for other
  needs later (eg. nice urls like /projects/show/myproject or directory
  name for attached files...)
• You're right. A ruby port should be provided in the near future.
  There are 3 reasons why these scripts were first written in perl:
  1. perl is not really a requirement (usually present on any
  system)
  2. svn repositories may not be hosted on a rubish machine
  3. perl is still a sysadmin best friend :-)

The name depends on what else you had in mind for the field
- if they're all svn related you might include that in the
name, e.g., svn-id, managed-repository-name, etc.

As for Perl, you're assuming everyone is running a Unix
variant - and unfortunately I'm stuck on Windows. I do
have Perl installed but most Windows installations won't.

If you're planning on having the scripts run via ssh on a
remote machine then none of this matters, it'll be pretty
much Unix specific anyway so Perl will work fine.
