[Monotone-devel] annotate brief with tags

[Zbigniew Zagórski]

Hello all.

I've got one small "improvement suggestion" for automate brief output.
How about showing tags instead of revisions in line brief if revision has tag ?

Output would look like this:

-------------------------

                               : WX_ARG_ENABLE(no_exceptions,
                               : WX_ARG_ENABLE(permissive, ...
                               : WX_ARG_ENABLE(no_deps, ...
WX_2_8_0_rc3 wx-team 2006-12-12: WX_ARG_ENABLE(vararg_macros,
    WX_2_7_1 wx-team 2006-12-12: WX_ARG_ENABLE_PARAM(universa
    WX_2_5_5 wx-team 2006-12-12:
    WX_2_7_0 wx-team 2006-12-12: WX_ARG_ENABLE(compat24, ...
                               : WX_ARG_ENABLE(compat26, ...
    WX_2_5_5 wx-team 2006-12-12:
                               : WX_ARG_ENABLE(rpath, ...
                               :
                               : dnl ------------------------

-------------------------

I know it's not always usable, but is usable for scenarios like i do
I've got "mirror" databases of some known packages like wxWidgets, python.
I do import for each release so in fact each revision is tagged, and thus
this improvement is usable for tracking changes in releases.

OTOH for example in monotone database where tag revisions are usually
only those with NEWS update it's rather not usable.

I've implemented it partially, so if there is interest in such improvement please give feedback, so i'll polish&submit 
patch.
