Thibaud Lepretre updated SCM-776:
---------------------------------
Description:
Actually I can't retrieve full file's changelog because when using changelog on
file's directory we lost some information if file had been moved from other
directory in the past.
Moreover for Git and Hg we need the possiblity to add --follow option to
retrieve changelog even if file had been rename/move or whatelse.
So is it possible to enhance changelog api in order to support:
- [API] Changelog single file
- [GIT/HG providers] Ability to enable or disable --follow option
was:
Git (and hg) works with contents and not files so by default git
log/whatchanged does not log any modification before rename/move.
In order to print all log git (and hg) provides an option --follow. But its
option must be only set with file and not directory.
So is it possible to enhance changelog api in order to support:
- [API] Changelog single file
- [GIT/HG providers] Ability to enable or disable --follow option
