     4Trac configuration is done by editing the '''`trac.ini`''' config file, located in `<projectenv>/conf/trac.ini`.  Changes to the configuration are usually reflected immediately, though changes to the `[components]` or `[logging]` sections will require restarting the web server. You may also need to restart the web server after creating a global configuration file when none was previously present.

     6The `trac.ini` configuration file should be writable by the web server, as Trac currently relies on the possibility to trigger a complete environment reload to flush its caches.

    7 In versions prior to 0.11, the global configuration was by default located in `$prefix/share/trac/conf/trac.ini` or sometimes /etc/trac/trac.ini depending on the distribution. If you're upgrading, you may want to specify that file to inherit from.

If you're upgrading, you may want to specify that file to inherit from.  Literally, when you're upgrading to 0.11, you have to add an `[inherit]` section to your project's `trac.ini` file. Additionally, you have to move your customized templates and common images from `$prefix/share/trac/...` to the new location.

    15 Note that you can also specify a global option file when creating a new project,  by adding the option
    16 `--inherit=/path/to/global/options` to [TracAdmin trac-admin]'s `initenv` command.
    17 If you would not do this but nevertheless intend to use a global option file with your new environment,
    18 you would have to go through the newly generated conf/trac.ini file and delete the entries that would
    19 otherwise override those set in the global file.

    91103The TracBrowser for Subversion can interpret the `svn:externals` property of folders out of the box.
    92 However, if those externals are ''not'' using the `http:` protocol, or if a link to a different repository browser (such 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.
