Hello,

when I view file-ages of a subtree of the repo using the (extremely
useful) 'glob=' property to '/fileage', the displayed 'relative-to'
date of the tip doesn't match the displayed offsets of the artifacts.

(offset is displayed as 38.9 days, while in fact the last checkin of
the artifacts listed is more like 1/2 year ago)

What I think is happening here:

the artifact listed occurs in multiple checkins. Although the checkins
where the artifact corresponds to a file within the glob'd subdir are
about 1/2 year older than tip, there are other checkins containing the
same artifact.

These other checkins occur much later (38.9 days earlier than tip
sounds right), but the corresponding files are outside the glob'd
subdir.

So basically, the displayed 38.9 offset from tip tells me there was a
checkin containing the artifact at that offset in time, but the
filename corresponding to the artifact in that recent checkin may lie
outside the glob'd subdir.

Is this intended behaviour..?

I don't know whether I made an error in thinking; perhaps what I
expect (1/2 year offsets being displayed instead of 38.9 days) just
doesn't make sense.

Thx,
Michai
