Richard Brooksby created a Perforce integration tool for Bugzilla and TeamTrack. - You can find the main project page at - http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/p4dti. "p4dti" is now an officially - supported product from Perforce, and you can find the "Perforce Public Depot" - p4dti page at http://public.perforce.com/public/perforce/p4dti/index.html. -
Integration of Perforce with Bugzilla, once patches are applied, is fairly seamless. However, - p4dti is a patch against the Bugzilla 2.10 release, not the current 2.12 release. I anticipate - patches for 2.12 will be out shortly. Check the project page regularly for updates, or - take the given patches and patch it manually. p4dti is designed to support multiple defect - trackers, and maintains its own documentation for it. Please consult the pages linked - above for further information. -
Right now, there is no way to synchronize the Bug ID and the Perforce Transaction Number, or - to change the Bug ID to read (PRODUCT).bugID unless you hack it in. Additionally, if you - have synchronization problems, the easiest way to avoid them is to only put the bug - information, comments, etc. into Bugzilla, and not into the Perforce change records. - They will link anyway; merely reference the bug ID fixed in your change description, - and put a comment into Bugzilla - giving the change ID that fixed the Bugzilla bug. It's a process issue, not a technology - question. -
