Re: RE: 1.3.0 RC1 or RC2 - no revision graph with SSH access

Personally, I'd like it to show the head of each branch as a node in the
graph. I'd much prefer being able to just select the branch revision or the
head nodes instead of using a right click option of "Compare head
revisions". Showing every revision though I think could be overkill.
