Re: Revisions being involved while comparing branches

Maybe the point is efficiency.

the *svn log -v* output for a revision range could be represented by a
matrix with the revision numbers as rows and the changed paths as columns.

So, for each revision is easy inquire the revised paths. That is simple
because all the results are retrieved from one execution.

But, how does efficiently transpose the matrix? -> paths as rows and
revisions as columns? and do it for the same set of values?

For example, when two *tags* are compared with TortoiseSVN the result is a
list of revised paths. But revisions are missing from that view. That is
because TortoiseSVN dispalys the *svn diff -summarize* results. So, how to
display also the involved revisions for each path? The *svn info* displays
only the last revision and not all involved so you should execute the *svn
log* command for each revised path. And that is not efficient.

The goal is adding the involved revisions on the compare directories view of
TortoiseSVN and do it in the most efficient way.
