If it’s a temporary branch, e.g. to develop a risky feature before it gets into good enough shape that it can be committed to the trunk, you can just click on the branch name anywhere you see it, and get a list of the checkins made on that branch. The first checkin’s comment should tell you why the branch was created. You might have to click the “200 entries” link to see back to the first checkin on the branch. If a branch has more than 200 entries, you could edit the URL (n=BIGNUM) but in that case, you’re probably dealing with a major branch. The purpose of such branches should be obvious given the content of the repository. (Stable release forks, for example.) If you had a tree big and complex enough that these things were not clear from context, you could add a “Navigation” wiki article. You’d probably want such a thing regardless, for such a complex project. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
