Bug Description
It is currently very difficult for a student to verify a submission. Verify means, a) check that you have submitted, b) check when you submitted, and c) check exactly the contents of your submission.
Currently, (a) and (b) are possible, but a little difficult to discover. When you submit, it just says "Project submitted: You successfully submitted <project name> for <subject name>." There are no links on that page, forcing you to wander off on your own. If you go to the subject home page, it will actually tell you "last submitted <time period> ago" on the project, so there is some accountability but no way to verify.
So:
1. On the subject page, after the text "last submitted <time period> ago", add a "Verify" link to the file browser, to the submitted path at the submitted revision. This lets you "verify" the submission (though it will still be a little unexplanatory what that means).
2. Spruce up the "Project submitted" page. Add links "Return to file browser" (goes to the parent directory of the submitted file), "Verify this submission" (goes to the history). Add the text "You can verify this submission at any time from the <link>subject page</link>."
That should make (c) possible, and (a), (b) and (c) quite discoverable.
