    hgweb: expose a followlines UI in filerevision view · 04ec317b8128
    Denis Laxalde authored
    In filerevision view (/file/<rev>/<fname>) we add some event listeners on
    mouse clicks of <span> elements in the <pre class="sourcelines"> block.
    Those listeners will capture a range of lines selected between two mouse
    clicks and a box inviting to follow the history of selected lines will then
    show up. Selected lines (i.e. the block of lines) get a CSS class which make
    them highlighted. Selection can be cancelled (and restarted) by either
    clicking on the cancel ("x") button in the invite box or clicking on any other
    source line. Also clicking twice on the same line will abort the selection and
    reset event listeners to restart the process.
    
    As a first step, this action is only advertised by the "cursor: cell" CSS rule
    on source lines elements as any other mechanisms would make the code
    significantly more complicated. This might be improved later.
    
    All JavaScript code lives in a new "linerangelog.js" file, sourced in
    filerevision template (only in "paper" style for now).
