Linking one SVN repository to multiple Trac repository

I am trying to have the following set up.

Assume that my customer has two different project developments in one SVN repository, project A and project B. Project A and project B are also sharing the same Trac repository. My customer is asking me to do the following:

•Both Project A and B are going to share the same SVN repository.

•Project A and B need to have separate Trac repositories.

•When there is a commit on the project A part of the SVN repository, the referenced ticket on the Trac repository A needs to be updated.

•When there is a commit on the project B part of the SVN repository, the referenced ticket on the Trac repository B needs to be updated.

I looked at http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki and I didn’t find anything about one SVN repository for multiple Trac repositories. I was wondering if this capability exists? If yes, then could you provide the link so I can read and learn?

Thank you for considering my request.

Better use just one Trac environment (means Trac instance), configure the use of two SVN repos there. Install SimpleMultiProjectPlugin to have multiple user-projects in a single Trac. You will have one unique ticket system where the name of the user-project is just another ticket field you should fill in. SVN commits refer to any tickets, it's up to the user to address the right ticket of a certain user-project. The plugin adds functionality to filter and sort tickets by user-projects (on Trac's timeline and roadmap pages).

Maybe install Bitnami Trac Stack to get a consistent all-in-one package of Apache+SVN+Trac+Python saving many hours of install hell.
