Allow selecting a timerange interactively #59

Open graipher opened 8 years ago

graipher commented 8 years ago

I have a file for which the history currently looks like this: timemachine

It would be nice if I could select the recent commits to see them in more detail, or at least zoom in on the mouse position using the mouse wheel. As of now, it is basically impossible to distinguish between the recent commits, due to that one initial commit a year ago.

Yeah, that's a great idea. would probably need some zoom controls and horz scrolling too.

I'd recommend something like what XE uses. That is, a timeline with slider above and a minimap below to select the range of the timeline.

Looks like it has been a year since this was brought up. I am working on a hack for this to look at just the last year of commits, but I figured I would bump this to see if anyone else takes a look.
