I have setup ChiliProject and am running with Subversion.

I can easily ref #123 and close #123 for items.

Unfortunately, the 'process' of looking up the items, remember the number and blindly referencing them is running into a rather hard task since we already have a couple of dozen projects needing reference. Each update, we also require a time spent entry (spend 0.25hrs updating item #123

Ultimately, we don't want to leave Visual Studio to update projects, etc...

I have attempted to install AnkhSVN, AnkhRedmine extension... this seems to work in a reasonable fashion, however, when I submit a ref #123 and fill out the time, the item is updated (after a delay), the entry is a REF with time attached... I can do the same to close a item.

In both cases, the time appears to be 'logged into Chiliproject, but I can't seem to run a report in the times entry section that shows these items (they are billable hours, so this is a problem). Does anyone have an idea of what might be happening? The only thing I can think is that possibly the time being submitted isn't in the right format? Or are hours logged in Refs not included in the reporting hours?

Also anyone else using other solutions or other tools to make Visual Studio work better with ChiliProject or Subversion that they would recommend?
