What steps will reproduce the problem?

http://google-toolbox-for-mac.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/)
2. Open commit message with link in it (for example, in mentioned repository 
r471)
3. Observe full commit message below table.

I’m not sure why you ‘expect’ this behaviour as svnX has never had it, 
unless this is a feature request.
However, you can right-click in URL-like text & choose ‘Open URL’ from the 
pop-up menu.
Also, svnX 2 will have (has) support for this (& much more).

Yeah, I agree it is a feature request. I've filed it as defect mostly because 
text view has automatic link detection. That's why I expect links to be 
clickable.

Thanks for right-click tip, I didn't know about that.

It appears that ‘automatic link detection’ only works in an *editable* text 
field and if you actually type the link or select its text & choose ‘Make 
Link’ from the contextual menu.
Unfortunately, enabling this feature makes no difference in an un-editable text 
field.
