Issue tracking applications that subdivide issues into (sub)tasks?

I am looking for an issue tracking application, which has two levels in its task hierarchy. This is because I find myself very often creating informal "TODO" lists within my issues.

Is there a Netbeans plugin or issue tracker that provides connectivity to Fogbugz?

I would like to be able to create FogBugz cases directly straight from the editor in NetBeans.

How can I make my relationship with QA less adversarial?

Throughout my career, I've had varied amounts of success getting along with QA.

I'm willing to work on my sen...

Jira: "Relative of" vs "Related to"

In Jira, linking items together is easy and useful. For example, you can clone an issue easily: Create issue 100, clone it to 101. 100 then shows "this issue has a clone: 101" and 101 then shows "this issue is a clone: 100" Similarly, you can mark issue 201 as being duplicate of 200 (reverse is 200 is duplicated by 201), and there are...

Anyone have a ticketing system they like and recommend for developers in a Windows environment? Note, we're not using TFS. We're using Tortoise Subversion. We're in a Windows environment.

help understanding what's possible with source control integration into issue tracking software

I work in a small company (2-4 software developers) where software is "only" a part of the main product (specialized measurement instruments).

So is your issue tracker (jira,...

Is there a redmine plugin to create multiple issues at once?

Redmine has a nice batch edit feature, but nothing equivalent for "batch create" (please correct me if I'm wrong!) FogBugz lets you quickly create multiple tickets with the same properties (type, status, assignment, etc.) via a ajax-ified text box at the bottom of any filtered view of tickets. Tickets created this way match the values o...
