Bug #21451 for SVN-Web: diff arbitrary revisions of a subtree

Subject:

diff arbitrary revisions of a subtree

I'm envisioning output just like SVN::Web::Revision, where it lists all the subdirectories and files added/deleted/changed between the two revisions, and then html diffs of the ones that changed. You could choose which revisions to diff from the "browse" screen of a subtree: two textboxes where you type in the two revision numbers, with the minimum being the revision the directory appeared, and the maximum being the most recent revision.

This needs to be a bit more specific. Consider the current Revision action output:, which broadly looks like this: For example, suppose I have a file, trunk/foo, which was changed in r1, r2, and r3. Are you expecting the layout to be: [ metadata for r1 ] [ log message for r1 ] [ list of files ] [ diff for r1 ] [ metadata for r2 ] [ log message for r2 ] [ list of files ] [ diff for r2 ] [ metadata for r3 ] [ log message for r3 ] [ list of files ] [ diff for r3 ] Or: [metadata for r1 ] [log message for r1 ] [ list of files ] [ metadata for r2 ] [ log message for r2 ] [ list of files ] [ metadata for r3 ] [ log message for r3 ] [ list of files ] [ diff from r1 to r3 ] Or something else?

This one: For diff purposes, treat the whole set of revisions as if it's just 1 revision. [ don't display info for r1 since it's the baseline of the diff ] [ metadata for r2 ] (I personally would not include [ metadata for r3 ] this metadata in my templates) [ log message for r2 ] [ log message for r3 ] [ list of files ] (add/delete takes precedence over modify) [ diff from r1 to r3 ] (Only list and diff the files that still exist in r3 and already existed in r1. Don't diff files added or deleted in the interim.)

I doubt youre still interested in this. I will leave this as stalled in case anyone wants to submit a patch.
