Redmine

We would like the ability to have underscores in the project identifiers as well. This would allow them to be consistent with our directory names and SVN repositories.

This should just be a matter of changing this line:
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/entry/trunk/app/models/project.rb#L65

any updates on this? it would really help this minimal change can go upstream. We have patche our local instance and chilliproject has closed the ticket https://www.chiliproject.org/issues/146 with the same patch. Given a lot of repositories in the GIT universe using the underscore in names it really would help to automate repo gen.

We would really appreciate underscores as possible characters. The identifier is turned into a repository name and it would be lovely if we could have those identical to the directory-names of the Typo3 extensions we are going to manage with redmine and git.
I believe it is pretty easy, see above. Can one of the seasoned developers just fix this? Or can anybody explain why it shouldn't. If I knew anything about Ruby I'd do it myself. I can change the file, do I have to do anything else to make the change known to the system?
