    80105TracLinks are a very simple idea, but actually allow quite a complex network of information. In practice, it's very intuitive and simple to use, and we've found the "link trail" extremely helpful to better understand what's happening in a project or why a particular change was made. 
    … …  
    87112To create a link to a specific anchor in a page, use '#': 
    88113{{{ 
    89  [#Relativelinks relative links] 
     114 [#Relativelinks relative links] or [[#Relativelinks|relative links]] 
    90115}}} 
    91116Displays: 
    92   [#Relativelinks relative links] 
     117  [#Relativelinks relative links] or [[#Relativelinks|relative links]] 
    93118 
    94119Hint: when you move your mouse over the title of a section, a '¶' character will be displayed. This is a link to that specific section and you can use this to copy the `#...` part inside a relative link to an anchor. 
    … …  
    101126To link from a [trac:SubWiki SubWiki] page to a parent, simply use a '..': 
    102127{{{ 
    103   [..] 
    104 }}} 
    105  
    106 To link from a [trac:SubWiki SubWiki] page to a sibling page, use a '../': 
    107 {{{ 
    108   [../Sibling see next sibling] 
    109 }}} 
    110  
    111 ''(Changed in 0.11)'' Note that in Trac 0.10, using e.g. `[../newticket]`  may have worked for linking to the /newticket top-level URL, but now in 0.11 it will stay in the wiki namespace and link to a sibling page. See [#Server-relativelinks] for the new syntax. 
     128  [..] or [[..]] 
     129}}} 
     130  [..] or [[..]] 
     131 
     132To link from a [trac:SubWiki SubWiki] page to a [=#sibling sibling] page, use a '../': 
     133{{{ 
     134  [../Sibling see next sibling] or [[../Sibling|see next sibling]] 
     135}}} 
     136  [../Sibling see next sibling] or [[../Sibling|see next sibling]] 
     137 
     138But in practice you often won't need to add the `../` prefix to link to a sibling page. 
     139For resolving the location of a wiki link, it's the target page closest in the hierarchy 
     140to the page where the link is written which will be selected. So for example, within  
     141a sub-hierarchy, a sibling page will be targeted in preference to a toplevel page. 
     142This makes it easy to copy or move pages to a sub-hierarchy by [[WikiNewPage#renaming|renaming]] without having to adapt the links. 
     143 
     144In order to link explicitly to a [=#toplevel toplevel] Wiki page, 
     145use the `wiki:/` prefix. 
     146Be careful **not** to use the `/` prefix alone, as this corresponds to the 
     147[#Server-relativelinks] syntax and with such a link you will lack the `/wiki/`  
     148part in the resulting URL. 
     149 
     150''(Changed in 0.11)'' Note that in Trac 0.10, using e.g. `[../newticket]`  may have worked for linking to the `/newticket` top-level URL, but since 0.11, such a link will stay in the wiki namespace and therefore link to a sibling page.  
     151See [#Server-relativelinks] for the new syntax. 
    112152 
    113153=== InterWiki links === 
    … …  
    119159This can be seen as a kind of InterWiki link specialized for targeting other Trac projects. 
    120160 
    121 Any type of Trac links could be written in one Trac environment and actually refer to resources present in another Trac environment, provided the Trac link is prefixed by the name of that other Trac environment followed by a colon. That other Trac environment must be registered, under its name or an alias. See InterTrac for details.  
    122  
    123 A distinctive advantage of InterTrac links over InterWiki links is that the shorthand form of Trac links usually have a way to understand the InterTrac prefixes. For example, links to Trac tickets can be written #T234 (if T was set as an alias for Trac), links to Trac changesets can be written [trac 1508]. 
     161Any type of Trac link can be written in one Trac environment and actually refer to resources in another Trac environment. All that is required is to prefix the Trac link with the name of the other Trac environment followed by a colon. The other Trac environment must be registered on the InterTrac page.  
     162 
     163A distinctive advantage of InterTrac links over InterWiki links is that the shorthand form of Trac links (e.g. `{}`, `r`, `#`) can also be used. For example if T was set as an alias for Trac, links to Trac tickets can be written #T234, links to Trac changesets can be written [trac 1508]. 
     164See InterTrac for the complete details.

    158200 
     201Note that by using [trac:WikiCreole] style links, it's quite natural to write links containing spaces:

    175  
    176 Any Trac links can support an arbitrary set of parameters, written in the same way as they would be for the corresponding URL. Some examples:

    240293=== Version Control related links === 
     294 
     295It should be noted that multiple repository support works by creating a kind of virtual namespace for versioned files in which the toplevel folders correspond to the repository names. Therefore, in presence of multiple repositories, a ''/path'' specification in the syntax of links detailed below should start with the name of the repository. If omitted, the default repository is used. In case a toplevel folder of the default repository has the same name as a repository, the latter "wins". One can always access such folder by fully qualifying it (the default repository can be an alias of a named repository, or conversely, it is always possible to create an alias for the default repository, ask your Trac administrator). 
     296 
     297For example, `source:/trunk/COPYING` targets the path `/trunk/COPYING` in the default repository, whereas `source:/projectA/trunk/COPYING` targets the path `/trunk/COPYING` in the repository named `projectA`. This can be the same file if `'projectA'` is an alias to the default repository or if `''` (the default repository) is an alias to `'projectA'`. 
     298 
    241299==== source: links ==== 
    242  
    243 The default behavior for a source:/some/path link is to open the directory browser  
    244 if the path points to a directory and otherwise open the log view. 
     300 ''aliases:'' `browser:`, `repos:` 
     301 
     302The default behavior for a source:/some/path link is to open the browser in that directory directory  
     303if the path points to a directory or to show the latest content of the file. 
    245304 
    246305It's also possible to link directly to a specific revision of a file like this: 
    … …  
    254313Finally, one can also highlight an arbitrary set of lines: 
    255314 - `source:/some/file@123:10-20,100,103#L99` - highlight lines 10 to 20, and lines 100 and 103. 
    256 ''(since 0.11)'' 
     315   ''(since 0.11)'' 
     316 
     317Note that in presence of multiple repositories, the name of the repository is simply integrated in the path you specify for `source:` (e.g. `source:reponame/trunk/README`). ''(since 0.12)''
