Good idea this would make for a useful way to associate commits with
JIRA issues. It might work well with hook scripts in SVN combined with
JIRA developer interfaces. Don't know if we turn these on though in our
ASF JIRA because of security reasons. Exposing these interfaces to only
local interfaces or certain clients may be convinciing enough to
infrastructure.
Also you might want to check with the folks on the #svn channel or
mailing list to see if they already have something in the works.
Good luck and thanks,
Alex
