v3 v4 1 = The Trac Repository Browser = 1 = The Trac Repository Browser 2 2 3 [[TracGuideToc]] 3 4 4 The Trac repository browser can be used to browse specific revisions of directories 5 and files stored in the repositories associated with the Trac environment. 5 The Trac repository browser can be used to browse specific revisions of directories and files stored in the repositories associated with the Trac environment. 6 6 7 ''(since 0.12)'': 8 At the top-level of the repository browser is the '''Repository Index''', 9 listing all the configured repositories. 10 Each repository has a name which is used as a path prefix in a 11 "virtual" file hierarchy encompassing all the available repositories. 12 One of the repositories can be configured with an empty name; this is the default repository. When such a default repository is present, its top-level files and directories 13 are also listed, in a '''Default Repository''' section placed before the 14 repository index. If the default repository is the only repository associated 15 with the Trac environment the '''Repository Index''' will be omitted ^[#note-multirepos (1)]^. 7 At the top-level of the repository browser is the '''Repository Index''', listing all the configured repositories. 8 Each repository has a name which is used as a path prefix in a "virtual" file hierarchy encompassing all the available repositories. 9 One of the repositories can be configured with an empty name; this is the default repository. When such a default repository is present, its top-level files and directories are also listed, in a '''Default Repository''' section placed before the repository index. If the default repository is the only repository associated with the Trac environment, then the '''Repository Index''' will be omitted. This means that after upgrading a single-repository Trac of version 0.11 (or earlier) to a multi-repository Trac (0.12), the repository browser will look and feel the same, that single repository becoming automatically the "default" repository. 16 10 17 Directory entries are displayed in a list with sortable columns. The list 18 entries can be sorted by ''Name'', ''Size'', ''Age'' or ''Author'' by clicking on the column 19 headers. The sort order can be reversed by clicking on a given column 20 header again. 11 Directory entries are displayed in a list with sortable columns. The list entries can be sorted by ''Name'', ''Size'', ''Age'' or ''Author'' by clicking on the column headers. The sort order can be reversed by clicking on a given column header again. 21 12 22 The browser can be used to navigate through the directory structure 23 by clicking on the directory names. 13 The browser can be used to navigate through the directory structure by clicking on the directory names. 24 14 Clicking on a file name will show the contents of the file. 25 Clicking on the revision number of a file or directory will take 26 you to the TracRevisionLog for that file. 27 Note that there's also a ''Revision Log'' navigation link that will do the 28 same for the path currently being examined. 29 Clicking on the ''diff'' icon after revision number will display the changes made 30 to the files modified in that revision. 15 Clicking on the revision number of a file or directory will take you to the TracRevisionLog for that file. 16 Note that there's also a ''Revision Log'' navigation link that will do the same for the path currently being examined. 17 Clicking on the ''diff'' icon after revision number will display the changes made to the files modified in that revision. 31 18 Clicking on the ''Age'' of the file - will take you to that changeset in the timeline. 32 19 33 It's also possible to browse directories or files as they were in history, 34 at any given repository revision. The default behavior is to display the 35 latest revision but another revision number can easily be selected using 36 the ''View revision'' input field at the top of the page. 20 It's also possible to browse directories or files as they were in history, at any given repository revision.

This can be [TracIni#svn-section configured] 50 for more advanced cases. 27 For Subversion, this list contains by default the top-level trunk directory and sub-directories of the top-level branches and tags directories (`/trunk`, `/branches/*`, and `/tags/*`).

Alternatively, the [trac:TracKeys keyboard] can also be used for this: 29 If you're using a Javascript enabled browser, you'll be able to expand and collapse directories in-place by clicking on the arrow head at the right side of a directory.

For example, setting `svn:mime-type` to `text/html` will ensure the file is 72 highlighted as HTML, regardless of the file extension. It also allows selecting the character 73 encoding used in the file content. For example, if the file content is encoded in UTF-8, 74 set `svn:mime-type` to `text/html;charset=utf-8`. The `charset=` specification overrides the 75 default encoding defined in the `default_charset` option of the `[trac]` section 76 of [TracIni#trac-section trac.ini]. 40 - The `svn:needs-lock` property will be displayed. 41 - Support for the `svn:mergeinfo` property showing the merged and eligible information. 42 - Support for browsing the `svn:externals` property, which can be [TracIni#svn:externals-section configured]. 43 - The `svn:mime-type` property is used to select the syntax highlighter for rendering the file.
