Re: cvs search engine

[Brendan Humphreys]

Hi Riadh,

Disclaimer: this post mentions a commercial product.

You might want to have a look at FishEye
(http://www.cenqua.com/fisheye). It's a commercial tool  that will
(amoung many other things) allow you to quickly search the content of
files in your repository.

FishEye indexes repository content on the CVS server, meaning you
don't have to have to index a local checkout. An advanced search mode
allows you to use a powerful SQL-like language to construct your
query:

  select revisions from dir /projects/myproject
  where author = riadh
  and content matches "TODO"

This query finds all files in the directory /projects/myproject that
were checked in by riadh where the file content contains the word
"TODO". Results from the search will show the section of the file that
matched with the keyword hilighted.

Other FishEye features include RSS feeds, changeset analysis,
historical charting, funky diff and annotated views.

FishEye is currently in Beta release and available for trial download.

Cheers,
-Brendan
