I think that simply enabling M<N (where it is now an error) will create the
situation where the user makes a mistake, gets something they don't expect
and tries to interpret it based on their desire - leading to confusion. I
believe M<N should still be an error. A new option (--reverse ?) should be
required to make it clear that the user wants the reverse blame walk.
Sorry, disagree.
diff -r 1:5 != diff -r 5:1
log -r 1:5 != log -r 5:1
merge -r 4:5 != merge -r 5:4
With all that in mind, I still think that making 'blame -r 5:4' and
'blame -r 4:5' do different things is the correct course of action.
Yeah, perhaps 'blame -r 5:4' and 'blame -r4:5 --reverse' should do the
same ?
