There "Open" popup action of any revisions. This
command shold be named "VIEW", because this action
provides only view of this file, but editing is
not available.
Comment 1 Peter Pis 2004-07-16 14:27:30 UTC
Also the name of action "Merge with Revision" should be renamed to
"Merge with selected Revision". This action can be invoked on the
revisions in Versioning tab of the explorer.
Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2004-07-16 14:30:04 UTC
I agree, "View" is better for that purpose.
Comment 3 Jiri Kovalsky 2004-07-16 14:48:13 UTC
Or "Merge With This Revision" ? It is a bit shorter ... :-)
Comment 4 Martin Entlicher 2004-07-16 15:13:43 UTC
I'm afraid that "This" can be ambiguous. I personally like the
"Selected" more, but I'm not sure what is the best wording.
Comment 5 Martin Entlicher 2004-07-21 16:16:04 UTC
ViewAction is used instead of OpenAction to open the revision:

/cvs/vcscore/src/org/netbeans/modules/vcscore/versioning/RevisionEditorSupport.java,v
 <--  RevisionEditorSupport.java
new revision: 1.10; previous revision: 1.9

/cvs/vcscore/src/org/netbeans/modules/vcscore/versioning/RevisionNode.java,v
 <--  RevisionNode.java

Comment 6 Martin Entlicher 2004-07-21 16:22:17 UTC
"Merge With Revision" renamed to "Merge With Selected Revision":

/cvs/vcsgeneric/profiles/cvsprofiles/src/org/netbeans/modules/vcs/profiles/cvsprofiles/config/Bundle.properties,v
 <--  Bundle.properties
new revision: 1.49; previous revision: 1.48
