Alter existing model with a Redmine plugin

The Redmine plugin tutorials explain how to wrap core models but what I need is to add another column to the journals table. I need a boolean field inserted in the journals model.

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...

Using git subtree merging, while also merging in all branches of all merged subtrees

I'd like to use a popular, open source issue tracker (Redmine) that offers git integration. Unfortunately, each project in the tracker can only be associated with one git repo.
