Nolan Lawson commented on COUCHDB-2648: --------------------------------------- One idea for how this could look: in the document view, there could be a pill/tab to switch between "JSON view" and "history view." This tree could be a simple SVG element showing all the leafs/non-leafs, with a different color for missing/non-missing. Clicking the non-missing rev would bring up the JSON for that rev. Conflicting leafs could have another color. > Rev tree visualization in Fauxton > --------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-2648 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2648 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: New Feature > Security Level: public(Regular issues) > Reporter: Nolan Lawson > > If a feature isn't visible, then it doesn't exist, from the point of view of > users. I would posit that the reason people don't make much use of conflict > resolution is that they have no idea how rev trees work. > Conflict resolution is the killer feature of CouchDB. We really need some way > to visualize that in the interface. > Follow-up to this conversation: > https://twitter.com/daleharvey/status/580725036555870208 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
