Description jmanko 2011-08-05 17:24:09 UTC 
The Issue Tracker template has two text fields for custom messages: Commit Message and Issue Comment.

Commit Message supports two keywords: {id} and {summary}

Issue Comment support four keywords: {revision}, {author}, {date}, and {message}

I request that a fifth keyword by added to Issue Comment: {project}

In this case, {project} may refer to the Netbeans project name or the VCS name.

Sometimes a bug fix may span multiple projects.  For instance, a web app and a supporting library.  When the bugzilla bug comments are updated along with a commit, it becomes difficult to distinguish which project the {revision} is referring to.
Comment 1 jmanko 2013-05-02 15:55:26 UTC 
I suggest extending this even more.

Revision: {revision}
Author:   {author}
Date:     {date}
Message:  {message}
Project:  {project or repository}
Diff:     https://svnserver/websvn/comp.php?repname={repository}&compare[]=/@{previous-revision}&compare[]=/@{revision}

If project/repository was a token, and if there was a way to obtain the previous revision (maybe a previous-revision token as indicated above), then doing stuff like the Diff would be an additional benefit.
