1.3. Modernize hgweb's graph rendering
Project description: Modernize hgweb's graph rendering
Skills: Python, JavaScript
Difficulty level: Intermediate/Difficult
Related reading/Links: https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4020 https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2570 (not limited to these)
Further details: Current graph rendering code in hgweb is pretty clunky and not very extensible or efficient. We could update it to today's standards, include more things (e.g. phases, hidden changesets, also look at TortoiseHg's graph for more examples) and render graph more efficiently and in a nicer-looking way.
