15 | | It's also possible to specify the revision at which the log should |
16 | | stop, using the ''back to'' field. By default, it's left empty, |
17 | | which means the revision log will stop as soon as 100 revisions have |
18 | | been listed. |
| 10 | It is also possible to specify the revision at which the log should stop, using the ''Back to'' field. By default it is empty, |
| 11 | which means the revision log will show the [TracIni#revisionlog-default_log_limit-option default log limit], which defaults to the latest 100 revisions. |
22 | | By default, the revision log ''stops on copy'', which means that |
23 | | whenever an ''Add'', ''Copy'' or ''Rename'' operation is detected, |
24 | | no older revision will be shown. That's very convenient when working |
25 | | with branches, as one only sees the history corresponding to what |
26 | | has been done on the branch. |

28 | | It's also possible to indicate that one wants to see what happened |
29 | | before a ''Copy'' or ''Rename'' change, by selecting the |
30 | | ''Follow copies'' mode. This will cross all copies or renames changes. |
31 | | Each time the name of the path changes, there will be an additional |
32 | | indentation level. That way, the changes on the different paths |
33 | | are easily grouped together visually. |
| 17 | It is also possible to indicate that one wants include what happened before a ''Copy'' or ''Rename'' change, by selecting the |
| 18 | ''Follow copies'' mode. This will continue to list all revisions across copies and renames. |
| 19 | Each time the name of the path changes, there will be an additional indentation level. That way, the changes on the different paths are easily grouped together visually. |
35 | | It's even possible to go past an ''Add'' change, in order to see |
36 | | if there has been a ''Delete'' change on that path, before |
37 | | that ''Add''. This mode corresponds to the mode called |
38 | | ''Show only adds, moves and deletes''. |
39 | | While quite useful at times, be aware that this operation is quite |
40 | | resource intensive. |
| 21 | It is even possible to go past an ''Add'' change, in order to see if there has been a ''Delete'' change on that path, before |
| 22 | that ''Add''. This mode is labeled ''Show only adds, moves and deletes''. The operation can be quite resource intensive and therefore take some time to display. |
48 | | For each revision log entry, there are 7 columns shown: |
49 | | 1. The first column contains a pair of radio buttons and should used |
50 | | for selecting the ''old'' and the ''new'' revisions that will be |
51 | | used for [wiki:TracRevisionLog#viewingtheactualchanges viewing the actual changes]. |
52 | | 2. A color code (similar to the one used for the [wiki:TracChangeset#ChangesetHeader changesets]) |
53 | | indicating kind of change. |

| 32 | 1. A color code (similar to the one used for the |

56 | | 3. The '''Date''' at which the change was made. |
57 | | 4. The '''Revision''' number, displayed as `@xyz`. |
58 | | This is a link to the TracBrowser, using that revision as the base line. |

60 | | This is a link to the TracChangeset view. |
61 | | 6. The '''Author''' of the change. |
62 | | 7. The '''Log Message''', which contains either a summary or the full commit |
63 | | log message, depending on the value of the ''Show full log messages'' |
| 36 | 1. The '''Revision''' number, displayed as `@xyz`. |
| 37 | This is a link to the TracBrowser, using the displayed revision as the base line. |
| 38 | Next to it, you can see a little "wheel" icon [[Image(htdocs:../common/changeset.png)]], which is clickable and leads to the TracChangeset view for that revision. |
| 39 | 1. The '''Age'''/'''Date''' at which the change was made. |
| 40 | Depending on your [/prefs/localization session preference], the date is displayed in either //Relative// or //Absolute// format. |
| 41 | * //Relative// format shows the '''Age''': the time elapsed as the number of hours, days, weeks, months, or years. |
| 42 | * //Absolute// format shows the '''Date''' of the revision as a datetime. |
| 43 | 1. The '''Author''' of the change. |
