    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)]^.

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.

    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.

    2414Clicking 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.

    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.

    38 The color bar next to the ''Age'' column gives a visual indication of the age
    39 of the last change to a file or directory, following the convention that
    40 '''[[span(style=color:#88f,blue)]]''' is oldest and '''[[span(style=color:#f88,red)]]'''
    41 is newest, but this can be [TracIni#browser-section configured].

    43 At the top of the browser page, there's a ''Visit'' drop-down menu which you can use
    44 to select some interesting places in the repository, for example branches or tags.
     24At the top of the browser page, there's a ''Visit'' drop-down menu which you can use to select some interesting places in the repository, for example branches or tags.
    4525This is sometimes referred to as the ''browser quickjump'' facility.
    4626The precise meaning and content of this menu depends on your repository backend.
    47 For Subversion, this list contains by default the top-level trunk directory
    48 and sub-directories of the top-level branches and tags directories
    49 (`/trunk`, `/branches/*`, and `/tags/*`).  This can be [TracIni#svn-section configured]
    50 for more advanced cases.

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

    5530 - use `j` and `k` to select the next or previous entry, starting with the first

    6237If no row has been selected using `j` or `k` these keys will operate on the entry under the mouse.

    6539For the Subversion backend, some advanced additional features are available:
    66  - The `svn:needs-lock` property will be displayed
    67  - Support for the `svn:mergeinfo` property showing the merged and eligible information
    68  - Support for browsing the `svn:externals` property
    69    (which can be [TracIni#svn:externals-section configured])
    70  - The `svn:mime-type` property is used to select the syntax highlighter for rendering
    71    the file. 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].
