Hi Michael,

I think going to the revision referred to, but for all files would
be what I expect. I can see why some people may expect it to be
for the one file though.

Would going to the full tree help in any way? It would then mean
the line of revisions could be the normal list of revisions.

Maybe I have missed your point.

Thanks,

James
