    4842The script provides a number of features to ease the conversion, such as:
    49 
    50   * PRODUCT_KEYWORDS:  Trac doesn't have the concept of products, so the script provides the ability to attach a ticket keyword instead.
    51 
    52   * IGNORE_COMMENTS:  Don't import Bugzilla comments that match a certain regexp.
    53 
    54   * STATUS_KEYWORDS:  Attach ticket keywords for the Bugzilla statuses not available in Trac.  By default, the 'VERIFIED' and 'RELEASED' Bugzilla statuses are translated into Trac keywords.
     43  * PRODUCT_KEYWORDS: Trac has no concept of products, so the script provides the ability to attach a ticket keyword instead.
     44  * IGNORE_COMMENTS: Don't import Bugzilla comments that match a certain regexp.

    9290=== Comma delimited file - CSV ===
    93 See [trac:attachment:csv2trac.2.py:wiki:TracSynchronize csv2trac.2.py] for details.  This approach is particularly useful if one needs to enter a large number of tickets by hand. (note that the ticket type type field, (task etc...) is also needed for this script to work with more recent Trac releases)
    94 Comments on script: The script has an error on line 168, ('Ticket' needs to be 'ticket'). Also, the listed values for severity and priority are swapped.
