Well it's been a while (7 months) since I asked about this feature which
Steve Borho said he had planned on implementing before the time he had for
TortoiseHg dropped.
I was wondering if this "generic changeset browser that could also display
a revision range" is on the radar of anyone else currently working on
TortoiseHg?
It's probably the biggest thing keeping me using 1.1.10.
If not, I understand and 1.1.10 still works quite well.
Thanks,
Mike
