Re: [Subclipse-dev] Revision graph status and plan

Well. I will think in a better way to retrieve and store the merge
information. By the moment I have committed some changes. Now the
merge information is shown in the revision graph. Merges are shown
with red arrows. Altought this adds more noise to the graph. But it's
the same problem we talked about: we'll have to implement filter
capabilities and maybe make changes in the layout algorithm.

As I said in the previous post the code also works if you change the
flag "includeMergedRevisions" to "false". So the merge information can
be disabled easily.
