BranchTimeline install issue

[blaine.mucklow@…]

I am trying to customize Trac to fit our project, and we have multiple branches that have continous work. I am trying to install the BranchTimeline plugin so that it can easily be seen what changes were made to which branches. I follow the configuration settings on ​http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/BranchTimelinePlugin and after restarting my trac using tracd I get the following error when trying to view the timeline:

(BranchesTimelineModule) failed: NameError: global name 'any' is not defined

Below this there is a link that says "You may want to see the other kind of events from the Timeline" and when I click the Timeline link it shows me what I expected to see when I clicked the overall Timeline link. Any thoughts on how to make the Timeline Tab go straight to that second page without the error? Also can I sort which branches show up in this list? We have several, and several are outdated and don't need to be listed in the selections...

Thanks in advance.

Also, I just tried using some of the sorting options on that second link I followed after the error and it appears to do nothing. The only thing it shows is opened and closed tickets. No matter what I try to display in any of the branches, nothing shows up.

Hey,

Regarding "NameError: global name 'any' is not defined" - the Python built-in function 'any' was added to Python in version 2.5, so you probably have an older version. I added an implementation of the function for versions prior to 2.5.

Selecting branches not be displayed at all is a good idea, I added it as well, add you trac.ini file the following lines:

[timeline-branches]
undisplayed_branches = <undisplayed branches>

Instead of <undisplayed branches> just put a comma separated list of branches that you don't want to display (put their relative path to the branches directory).
