I think you might look at the revision indicated by the current line before the previous one (which can currently be done with `J' then `P'. How about using A for annotating the revision indicated by the current line (its more mnemonic) and C-u A for the revision before the one indicated by the current line? Tthis feature is not in Emacs 21, so now would be a good time to change it. Nick
