Description

It'd be very useful to show the last change to a file, and at the same time its not very useful seeing the size of a file with a high visual 'priority'.

I'm not comfortable with adding an "author" column. The term "author" implies that the person is the original author and main editor of a file, while in ViewCVS the author column just displays the name of the person who did the last check-in of the file.

Maybe combining the last log message and the name of the latest relevant changeset could be combined into a "Last change" column.

Owner: changed from Jonas Borgström to daniel
Status: newassigned

Good point, great suggestion. No need to carry on old (smelly) legacy mistakes. :)

I really messed up that last sentence in my previous comment:

Maybe combining the last log message and the name of the latest relevant changeset could be combined into a "Last change" column.

That should have read:

Maybe the last log message and the name of the committer of the latest relevant changeset could be combined into a "Last change" column.

Milestone: 0.7.10.8

This is probably too much of a change for 0.7.1. Moving it to 0.8 only for now.
