This is one of several tickets I am creating to log what I feel are shortcomings in the new (Allura) code viewer relative to the old (ViewVC) code viewer. In all of these cases, simply providing a way for users to continue using ViewVC would be an acceptable workaround.
In ViewVC, if a file or directory had been renamed, then the history view of said file/directory provided a link at the bottom that allowed one to easily browse the old history of the file/directory before it has been renamed. Example (see bottom of page):
http://libjpeg-turbo.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/libjpeg-turbo/trunk/turbojpeg.c?view=log
This is a critical feature for being able to visualize the history of a repository.
Merged. Set to validation to test the specific cases Dave mentioned on prod once deployed (and to better indicate when this is actually live).
