Yes, as Matt hints at, what most people really want is a filter for a particular branch. As it stands, you can always find the (default) head of a branch: http://hg.python.org/cpython/shortlog/default http://hg.python.org/cpython/shortlog/3.2 http://hg.python.org/cpython/shortlog/2.7 etc but note that as you follow the graph for a branch, merge change sets can take you into other branches depending on which parent you choose, and the change log shows all earlier change sets regardless of branch. -- Ned Deily, [email protected] _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
