In the repository view there is the ability to view the changelog of an individual file or drop down into a subdirectory, however it would be very useful to be able to view the changelog of a directory (as you can with the top-level of a repository).

I have a very simple patch to demonstrate this:

  Index: app/views/repositories/_dir_list_content.rhtml
  ===================================================================
  --- app/views/repositories/_dir_list_content.rhtml      (revision 2717)
  +++ app/views/repositories/_dir_list_content.rhtml      (working copy)
  @@ -19,6 +19,12 @@
  <td class="revision"><%= link_to(format_revision(entry.lastrev.name), :action => 'revision', :id => @project, :rev => entry.lastrev.identifier) if entry.lastrev && entry.lastrev.identifier %></td>
   <td class="age"><%= distance_of_time_in_words(entry.lastrev.time, Time.now) if entry.lastrev && entry.lastrev.time %></td>
   <td class="author"><%= changeset.nil? ? h(entry.lastrev.author.to_s.split('<').first) : changeset.author if entry.lastrev %></td>
  -<td class="comments"><%=h truncate(changeset.comments, 50) unless changeset.nil? %></td>
  +<td class="comments">
  +   <%=h truncate(changeset.comments, 50) unless changeset.nil? %>
  +   <%= if entry.is_dir?
  +      link_to '(all)',
  +         {:action => 'changes', :id => @project, :path => to_path_param(entry.path), :rev => @rev}
  +   end %>
  +</td>
   </tr>
   <% end %>

It may be that there is a way to do this already, but I couldn't find it or any mention of it!
