Version Control and Bug Tracking?

[Scott Wood <treii28@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am interested in recommendations for packages to handle version control and
bug tracking.  Both in one would be really nice, but I would prefer if possible
to have something that would run from a linux box.

Some of the things that I am looking for are:

  * Gui accessibility - also from windows and/or web if possible (both)

  * Able to handle HTML as well as program code (VCS only)

  * Reasonably easy to understand (bug tracking especially - need to convince
    two managers - one of which is more artistically and less technically
    inclined - that implementing a bug tracker is in their best interest)

  * able to handle multi-user - multi-workstation environment.
    especially with VCS: to be able to handle 'merges' as cleanly as possible.
    remote syncing (i.e. rsync) off of VCS might be nice too, but not necessary

  * manager interface (bug tracking) to set priorities on user level trouble
    submissions.  (I am getting tired of people coming to me directly with
    hundreds of 'little' issues while I am backed up against a deadline with
    a bigger task)

I have already done some research into both version control packages and bug
tracking and have some of my own notions but would be interested to know some
other people's opinions.  I am a little more familiar with linux VCS than bug
tracking packages, however.  Commercial software is not out of the question -
especially if it has a quicker/less-painful implementation process. (less time
to get it working right)
