Re: [Subclipse-dev] revision graph: shouldnt it be possible to also show the merge lines?

i dont want to refresh a specific revision
I want to refresh a specific file in a specific trunk, tag or branch (so all
the revision of the file in trunk or in a branch)

for just getting the merge info this would be (on 1 file in a specific
branch or just trunk) be the fastest way as far as i see

svn log -q -g -rHEAD:0 url/x/branch/y/File.java

If we could merge that output (with or without the -q) back into the cache
for that specific file, it would be fast and it would work for me
But i maybe just dont see the whole picture how the cache is build, i will
dive into this a bit deeper.
