Git: View annotation prior to the change
0%
Description
The "Blame" view of GitHub and Gitlab has a feature called "View blame prior to this change". With the feature, you can easily jump to an older change of the line.
I think it would be useful if Redmine also has the feature. Currently, it requires some manual steps to see older changes in the "Annotate" view of Redmine.

+1 This is a real handy feature when browsing (Git) repositories a lot. Given the usability of this change I wonder if this is something that could be implemented (easily) for other SCMs (Hg, SVN, ...) too?!

This feature is easy to implement in the Git adapter because `git blame -p` outputs the previous commit for the line, as shown in the "previous" like of the following sample.
However, `blame` / `annotate` subcommand of other SCMs such as subversion doesn't give the information of the previous change, so we have to find another way to get the previous change.
Since there are so many Git users these days, I think it is a good idea only for Git as a first step.

You don't really need to know revision of previous change for SVN. Since revisions in SVN are sequential numbers, you only need to decrease number of revision of given change and show annotations for this version. For example to see annotations prior r22231 for this file
you need to show annotations for revision 22230: https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/svn/revisions/22230/annotate/trunk/app/views/repositories/revision.html.erb

Thank you for your suggestion. I have opened #38526 to implement this feature for Subversion.
