Description Jan Becicka 2011-11-18 11:09:03 UTC

I'd like to ask for API for setting labels. Refactoring changes should labeled in local history.

Comment 1 Tomas Stupka 2011-11-21 10:22:04 UTC

- labels are associated with a specific file version
- file versions in local history are created in the moment before a file is changed, deleted or renamed. LH would need to know that a file operation is somehow related to a bigger transaction. 

- any proposals?

- this issue blocks issue #48427, but just accordingly labeling file versions created during a refactoring action doesn't seem to be the complete solution for #48427.

see o.n.m.versioning.spi.VCSHistoryProvider and o.n.m.versioning.spi.VCSHistoryProvider.HistoryEntry 

the implementation of VCSHistoryProvider in LocalHistory makes it possible to set the message (label) associated with a HistoryEntry. The problem here is how will refactoring find out which HistoryEntry is related to it's changes ...
