Favourites OverviewFishEye allows you to tag certain items as your favourites. You can select changesets, files, people and repositories to be added to your favourites. Once your favourites list is created, you can view it or see a stream of all activity relating to your favourite items. We suggest you select items that you are currently working on as favourites, to create a more relevant personalised view.
Adding Items to Your FavouritesTo add an item to your favourites, follow one of the steps below. Adding a Person to Your FavouritesTo add a person to your favourites, simply hold the mouse cursor over their username wherever it appears. The User Hover menu will appear. In the User Hover menu, click 'Follow'. This will add the person to your favourites. Adding a Changeset to Your FavouritesTo add a changeset to your favourites, firstly open the changeset desired from the 'Source' tab. Once the changeset is open, simply click the grey star icon that appears next to its name. The name appears in the breadcrumb links at the top of the screen.
