Hi, all,

a minor new feature which some of you might find useful...

When "closed" tags are processed, the timeline currently shows them with a
short comment like 'Marked closed' or 'Removed closed mark.' As of one
commit ago, if a closed tag has a value, then that value will be displayed
in the timeline, e.g.:

[stephan@host:~/cvs/fossil/fossil]$ f time
=== 2013-08-13 ===
...
19:56:25 [df447e0f67] Edit [ab58aacf]: Marked "Closed" with note "get rid of
         this for good.". (user: stephan)
19:55:59 [fd62f83a5a] Edit [ab58aacf]: Removed the "Closed" mark with note
         "make sure -closed event view works right.". (user: stephan)
19:51:02 [6fcad59365] Edit [ab58aacfbe23fc2f]: Marked "Closed" with note "it
         was a silly thing to try". (user: stephan)

The current UI/CLI does not provide a way to add such a comment to closed
branches, but:

a) i will try to add that to the UI at some point (IIRC the CLI has no
command for closing a branch?). If someone else wants to go ahead and add
it, i won't object ;).

b) it can be done using the prototype lib and its demo tools. The above
tags were set like this:

[stephan@host:~/cvs/fossil/fossil]$ history | tail -40 | grep f-tag
  522  ../f2/f-tag -a ab58aacfbe -t closed -v 'it was a silly thing to try'
  529  ../f2/f-tag -a ab58aacfbe -t -closed -v 'make sure -closed event
view works right.'
  530  ../f2/f-tag -a ab58aacfbe -t closed -v 'get rid of this for good.'

Have fun!

PS: that was my first-ever private branch.
