Description

Trac offers some really nice features in the repository code browser, which Redmine currently lacks.

For examples those features I think would be nice to have in Redmine and already present in the Trac code browser:

- Inline diff: Trac shows which exact characters of a line have been changed and hightlights them in a different color (darker green / darker red compared to the color of the surrounding characters)
- Browsing through folders at a certain revision
- Cliking on a revision number brings you straight to the diff view, no second click on "View differences" necessary
- The ChangeSet view is very well structured, with messages, propchanges and meta information on top and diff below
- The diff view of ChangeSets has got various options: Inline vs. Side-by-Side view, Ignoring whitespace changes etc.
- ChangeSets can be downloaded as "Unified Diff" patches or "Zip Archive"
- File-renames are listed properly in the ChangeSet view instead of showing a separate add/remove (see also #804)

Would it be possible to port some code from Trac to Redmine?

It would be awesome to see some or all of those features in Redmine, too!
