Uhm, I don't think that using a different project is a good idea. For branches, we are usually not much interested in the branch history, but in the comparison with trunk (ideally, with trunk at the point we created the branch, or at the point of the last merge from trunk). As for visualize changes, I think that we don't need anything fancy, for example it would be already immensely useful to have the possibility of displaying the Changes page in a way that it compares the performances of the branch against trunk. ciao, Anto _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
