Description
svn blame
has the -g
option:
-g [--use-merge-history] : use/display additional information from merge history
This can be useful for finding the changeset in which a line was changed, which is often more useful than the line in which the change was merged.
For example, line 47 of browser/trunk/trac/core.py shows [13672], however that's a merge changeset and [13671] may be more interesting.
svn blame -g trac/core.py
on the trunk yields:
G 13671 rjollos super(TracError, self).__init__(message)
while svn blame trac/core.py
yields:
13672 rjollos super(TracError, self).__init__(message)
It looks like we could use blame4
or blame5
of svn.client
, rather than blame2:
svn_client_blame4(*args) svn_client_blame4(char const * path_or_url, svn_opt_revision_t peg_revision, svn_opt_revision_t start, svn_opt_revision_t end, svn_diff_file_options_t const * diff_options, svn_boolean_t ignore_mime_type, svn_boolean_t include_merged_revisions, svn_client_blame_receiver2_t receiver, void * receiver_baton, svn_client_ctx_t ctx, apr_pool_t pool) -> svn_error_t svn_client_blame5(*args) svn_client_blame5(char const * path_or_url, svn_opt_revision_t peg_revision, svn_opt_revision_t start, svn_opt_revision_t end, svn_diff_file_options_t const * diff_options, svn_boolean_t ignore_mime_type, svn_boolean_t include_merged_revisions, svn_client_blame_receiver3_t receiver, void * receiver_baton, svn_client_ctx_t ctx, apr_pool_t pool) -> svn_error_t
Btw, I wonder if it would be useful to have a blame
TracLink, or extend the browser
TracLink to allow blame to be specified.
