I remember there's been a discussion in Feb/Mar 2009 about choosing a
bugtracker program, but the conclusion was to keep using Alioth at least
for a short while:

http://www.mail-archive.com/bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org/msg00744.html 

Alioth is actually FusionForge-4.8.2 (http://fusionforge.org/) but I
couldn't find any references to a bug "not being able to include
attachments"...

FWIW, from this article "Review: Free Software Project
Hosting"
(http://changelog.complete.org/archives/1123-free-software-project-hosting),
dated August 2009, it appears the Github Issue Tracker doesn't support
attachments either.

Maybe a workaround is to send attachments via the bash-completion-devel
mailing list as a reply to an issue update?

David, do you know if making attachments can be allowed to Alioth bug
commenters?
