Subversion directory history

Hello Andy,

AD> Is there a way within IDEA to see the history for a particular
AD> directory?

This is possible for the internal vcs - IIRC, just choose show history for
the directory.

AD> (Show History in the Subversion menu is always disabled for
AD> directories).

Haven't yet migrated to svn and don't know if it supports this.

I guess I should have clarified more. I realize I can look at the local history of a directory. However, I want to see the SVN history, as the SVN history spans all developers and also goes back much further in time than the local history.

Get the T-Mate plugin. This is what it does best (imho)

Browse Changes is what I use now. I asked about history for a particular directory because Browse Changes isn't exactly what I need. Now, maybe if I could right click on a directory and select Browse Changes for that directory alone, that would do the trick! However, no matter where I select Browse Changes, it always wants to show changes for the entire project, forcing me to manually type in a directory path if I want to limit it to just that one directory.

Hello Andy,

Well, that sounds like a good new feature request.
