Description (last modified by Tim Hatch)

When doing merges, a lot of times you end up with changelists that looks massive, but in reality are just updating the svn:mergeinfo property on most files and directories. It would be good to have an option to hide this data [while viewing the page] so you could more easily see the "real" changes of a merge.

This can largely be mitigated by setting hide_properties in trac.ini. Have you tried that and still see overly verbose changesets?

comment:2 by anonymous, 15 years ago

I was thinking more of an option for users as to whether or not they want to see it on a given page. I suppose hide_properties works for the majority of cases.

See related #7715. I think having an extra checkbox property changes in the Ignore: part of the Changeset filters would work.

Well, if you have lots of "svn:mergeinfo property changes on most files and directories", you have a problem. Usually this is introduced by bugs in old 1.5.x versions of svn or user mistakes. Seeing the changes in Trac gives you a chance to detect the problem and remove the spurious mergeinfo properties.
