Description

I'd like subprojects to have the option of using their parent project's repository.

In my current project, I have have parent project Parent and subproject Child. The repository for Parent is http://www.example.com/svn/parent. Files for Child are not neatly tucked away in a single subdirectory, but rather intermingled with files for Parent as well. This means that the only way Redmine can see Child's revisions is to duplicate Parent's repository.

Instead, I would like a checkbox on Child's "Repository" settings tab that says "Use my parent project's repository." By checking this option, I would then be able to make a commit with a message that says "This bug fix closes 42" and have the Child's issue #42 be closed, even though only Parent had its repository setting set to the repository URL.
