Information on setting Subprojects

I'm quite new to redmine. My main driver to use it has been the possibility to work with multiple project as well as sub-projects. In particular, my requirement is to handle software/hardware system development projects with multiple components (sub-projects) as well as customer projects on which those systems are deployed and customized.

I've seen that there are some patches, but the real state of them (some have 3 years) is not clear. Therefore, I've been unable to find a definitive answer on how to setup sub-projects to share some features of the parent, like:
- versions
- wiki
- issues
- repositories

Also, I would like to have cross project issues. For example, open a bug in a project that relates to a version of another project.

I will appreciate if you could point me to the right documentation

Regards

Pablo

As far as I know only versions can be shared among projects. See RedmineProjectSettings#Versions. Each project has its own modules for issues, wiki and repository which cannot be shared with other projects (although referencing [using links] is possible with current Redmine releases).

Also, I would like to have cross project issues. For example, open a bug in a project that relates to a version of another project.

See above...
