QBzr

I still want qstatus

Asked by IWATA Hidetaka

In past, there were some discussions about needs of qstatus dialog, and they concluded qstatus were unnecessary because it can be replaced by qbrowse or bzr-explorer.
But I don't think so.

bzr status can show changes between any two revisions, not only working-tree, and TMK, qbrowse and bzr-explorer can't do it.
(Above all, I use 'bzr status -r submit:' very often.)

I hope qstatus to support this function.
e.g.
 * bzr qstatus -r 100..101 # show changes made by rev 100
 * bzr qstatus -r 100 # show changes between rev100 and working-tree
 * bzr qstatus -r submit: # show changes will be submitted

And more, I think it's very nice that qstatus can be called from context menu of qlog dialog by selecting two revisions.

Could you give me your opinion?
Thanks.

I think it possible to extend qbrowse to see what you need or implement it as separate dialog. Please, file/reopen the bug for qstatus.

Such open questions better to discuss in qbzr ML, IMO.

Thank you.
I reopened #162955(qstatus window) and added comment to it.

This is extremely useful and has been "hidden" in explorer for some
time. Use "bzr explorer --experimental" to turn it on. It will be a
standard feature once performance is improved (so you only pay for the
query when you want it vs always).
