[ Context: the 'blame -g' algorithm for computing the revision blamed for a given line with merges accounted for; see: http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3862#desc3 ] Would the following work: - Input: (src='/trunk/iota', victim='/branch/iota') - Algorithm: - blame VICTIM normally - blame SRC@N normally, where N is the last revision of SRC merged to VICTIM - diff the two blame chains (i.e., use the existing libsvn_diff, but each logical line would be a (blamed revnum, physical revnum) tuple) - when the diff changes the assigned revnum but not the line's text, use the smaller of the two revnums Note that I'm assuming that we have a SRC argument --- which isn't how 'blame' works today. I also haven't worked much on 'blame' before, so standard caveats apply. > ------------------------------------------------------ > http://subversion.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=463&dsMessageId=2895209 > > To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: > [[email protected]].
