Replying to fbrettschneider@…:
I noticed that branch timeline-displaying does not work for SVN commits
Right, it's not implemented for svn.
Is there a ticket tracking this remaining issue?
No, please create a feature request if you like (PatchWelcome applies ;-) ). Implementation hint: same code as for changeset_show_files=location, combined with matching on the patterns given in [svn] branches / tags.
