Mantis Plugin

This plugin integrates Mantis Bug Tracker to Jenkins. Mantis is a free popular web-based bugtracking system written in PHP scripting language.
This plugin decorates Hudson "Changes" HTML to create links to your Mantis issues, and update issues with private / public notes.
As an example, if you committed a change with the following log message (which is configurable see Project Configuration):

fix issue #410

Mantis keys in changelogs are now hyperlinked to the corresponding Mantis issue pages (complete with tooltips),
and Mantis issues are also updated with note as following.

This plugin only supports Mantis 1.1.0 and above.
