You can use this JIRA plugin : https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/SVN/Subversion+JIRA+plugin

When you commit, don't forget to add the issue key in the comment (something like ABC-123).

It's worth thinking about a pre-commit hook in Subversion which scans for an issue-key and stops commit if there isn't one.

SVNFlash is also a good (I would say better) alternative to Atlassian's JIRA Subversion plugin and the most powerful way to integrate JIRA and Subversion.

@David, my aplogies for the inconveniences.

It was really a extremely powerful tool to explore Subversion repositories from the browser and fully integrated with JIRA and other products. In fact, I partnered with Collabnet and it was published on their web site until I decided to discontinue it.

The picture below shows a nice feature supported by SVNFlash: Revision graphs. It was real ;)

Poor ol' Subversion is suffering for a lack of Atlassian love, with SVN OnDemand being dumped in favour of BitBucket with its DVCS offerings. I think that that was our dealbreaker for not going with JIRA OnDemand - the only way to integrate SVN with JOD is to host your own Fisheye instance and then set up app links to JOD. Looked like a useful product though, @Pablo.

Ignore the link to SVNFlash posted by Pablo - it's a spam link. Unfortunately I don't have enough karma to downvote it.

It used to be valid. I think what's happened is no-one used the plugin so Pablo discontinued work on it and then did not renew ownership of the site. Subsequently, it's been taken up by a spammer.
