+Multiple files can be specified using a comma-separated list.
 
-Note that you can also specify a global option file when creating a new project,  by adding the option `--inherit=/path/to/global/options` to [TracAdmin trac-admin]'s `initenv` command.  If do not do this but nevertheless intend to use a global option file with your new environment, you will have to go through the newly generated conf/trac.ini file and delete the entries that will otherwise override those set in the global file.

+There are two more entries in the [[#inherit-section| [inherit] ]] section, `templates_dir` for sharing global templates and `plugins_dir`, for sharing plugins. Those entries can themselves be specified in the shared configuration file, and in fact, configuration files can even be chained if you specify another `[inherit] file` there.

 This section is used to enable or disable components provided by plugins, as well as by Trac itself. The component to enable/disable is specified via the name of the option. Whether its enabled is determined by the option value; setting the value to `enabled` or `on` will enable the component, any other value (typically `disabled` or `off`) will disable the component.

+One of the alternatives for registering new repositories is to populate the `[repositories]` section of the trac.ini.

+This is especially suited for setting up convenience aliases, short-lived repositories, or during the initial phases of an installation.

-The TracBrowser for Subversion can interpret the `svn:externals` property of folders out of the box.
-However, if those externals are ''not'' using the `http:` or `https:` protocol, or if a link to a different repository browser such as another Trac or [http://www.viewvc.org/ ViewVC] is desired, then Trac needs to be able to map an external prefix to this other URL.
+The TracBrowser for Subversion can interpret the `svn:externals` property of folders.
+By default, it only turns the URLs into links as Trac can't browse remote repositories.
+
+However, if you have another Trac instance (or an other repository browser like [http://www.viewvc.org/ ViewVC]) configured to browse the target repository, then you can instruct Trac which other repository browser to use for which external URL.
 
 This mapping is done in the `[svn:externals]` section of the TracIni
