Description

Restrict to

Allows one to restrict the change history to the selected branch. Initially the entire history, irrespective of branch, is displayed.

When pressed the first time, this button stops the traversing of change histories. When pressed a second time, it stops the gathering of information about each revision. This is very useful when looking at revision histories, as these can be massive, or when looking at file histories, as these can take a long time to calculate where each change happened.

Displays a Differences window that shows all of the differences between the two selected revisions. The two revisions in question are selected by using the Select As Id... buttons mentioned above (see Section 5.2).
