Trac

Trac is a free, self-hosted system for software development projects that combines issue tracking with a wiki. It takes a minimal approach to web-based project management. The wiki markup works not only in wiki pages but also in ticket descriptions and comments, version-control log messages, milestone descriptions and reports. It can link bugs, tasks, changesets, files and wiki pages. Trac provides an interface to Subversion, Git and other version control systems. Its timeline orders current and past project events chronologically, while its roadmap lists upcoming milestones. Plugins are listed among the resources for extending or customizing a setup, and custom workflows and workflow automation are available. Trac is deployed as a Python web application through WSGI and a web server such as Apache; authentication can be configured through web-server mechanisms including Basic and Digest. The project homepage identifies version 1.6 as the latest stable release. Listed platforms are Linux, macOS, Windows, web and self-hosted. The free plan costs nothing.
