Yes, all have been derived from the trunk but at significantly different
stages of the project. So it seems inconsistent when looking at the
graph for a relatively new branch that it also brings up totally
unrelated earlier branches. I would expect when clicking on the most
recently created branch folder to only see a graph for the revisions
from when it was created. However it's showing deleted branches and
stuff that happened way before it was created, making it hard to get an
uncluttered view. (Yes I know deletes can be hidden but..)
Similarly when clicking on the Branches folder I seems to me it would be
more consistent to see revs from when it was created and in that get the
fuller picture.
Somehow it would be nice to click on Trunk and see at which rev
branches, tags etc were created from it.
It's obviously a complex piece of code and that would have an effect on
resisting change but is what I'm suggesting making usability sense at all?
