Eclipse SVN comment templates


Does anyone have some pointers to how to write SVN comment templates. I would like to include:

  • the current date (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • the author of the commit (author of the code)

Solution

    1. Why you are making the change. Try to make this something that isn't obvious from reading the code. "fixed a typo" is preferable to changed "1 to 2".
    2. If you are working on a defect, include the defect #
    3. If you are working on an enhancement request or named feature or the like, include that as well.
