Re: enhancement request: limited version history

   I believe there is simpler and nicer solution for this.

   Synchronize view already has all the information about incoming
changes and revision for every file from the changeset. So, it just have
to group these revisions together and then fetch revision details for
each group. this will actually match "change set" feature available in
Eclipse CVS plugin.

   Currently, the closest you can do is to open SVN resource history for
the entire project and then scan trough recent revisions.

   regards,
   Eugene
