Thanks! Yeah, that sort of slipped in under the radar, I didn't get
around to mentioning it yet.

Double-click a file in the repository window to open it in a separate
window. This window shows source and diffs, like the preview pane in
the repo window, but it also has an annotations (often called "blame")
view that shows you the most recent revision that touched each line in
the file. I put in some color-coding to make the grouping of lines
more obvious. The window also has a timeline slider at the top that
lets you jump to any revision that modified the file; the other views
are all relative to that revision.
