Because Trac and Git have come up: Zotero has switched from Trac/SVN
to Git and I (and I think everyone else involved) much prefers git,
not least because of it's better issue handling. I found Trac slow,
clumsy, and ugly.
If, as you say, the code repository function isn't important, there
may very well be better products for issue tracking only, but between
Trac and github the latter is imho much superior.
