Created attachment 442909 [details] Patch to add a link to log views of repository roots Description of problem: When displaying the repository roots page, there is no links to the log views, as in the "Rev" column of subdirectory pages. The only way to get these logs is to "forge" their urls by appending "/repository_name?view=log" manually. This not really a bug: it's just the lack of a feature that can be easily implemented. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.6-1 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. In the web browser, go to your viewvc repository root page. Actual results: Repository names are listed and can be used as links to their respective contents. However no link allows to show the repository log views. Expected results: ... want to have such a link ! Additional info: The attached patch adds that feature. The new root page does not look very beautiful (I'm not a web designer!), but the idea is there... I did not report it upstream.
I think this is probably something for upstream, no?
Yes, if you mean this is not a packaging bug!
Could you please report it upstream and attach the bug ID here. Once a patch emerges upstream (or a new version), we can rebuild.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Patch has been aproved upstream as a "quick n'dirty" fix, thus not applied to their source tree. They however did not fix this problem yet. Reassigning bug to F14.
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
