This is 'mtn log <file or dir>', except that doesn't restrict to a
particular time frame. I'm not sure what behavior you would want
there given mtn's lack of a consistent clock. Adding '--from' and
'--to' can let you select spans in the graph's history.

This takes slightly more scripting, but is still relatively
straightforward. The selector 'a:<so-and-so>' selects all revisions
whose author cert is <so-and-so>, and you can do things like
mtn automate select a:so-and-so \
| mtn automate toposort address@hidden \
| xargs -n1 mtn log --last=1 --from
None of this is web/gui-fical, but thought I'd throw it out there in
case it helped.
